Title: Tanglewood Case #3 Name: Debbie A. McCalla Course # and Title: HRM: 594 School: Keller Graduate School Instructor: Dr. B. Carden Date: Sunday June 1, 2014 INTRODUCTION One of Tanglewood’s organizational staffing strategies is to continuously make available store associates positions; however, in conjunction to that plan, they have to start looking at the best means of recruiting from the job market in order to acquire the best fit.

After certain specifications and stipulations were put into place, Spurlock began his "McDiet" which soon proved to be a gruesome and nauseating experience. Almost instantly after the start of the documentary, it becomes apparent that Spurlock was subjecting himself for the sake of health revelations. In the humorous, insightful documentary Super Size Me, director Morgan Spurlock combines his unique style of participatory narration with strong appeals to ethos, pathos and logos in order to successfully educate the audience of the negative health impacts of fast food on the collective physique.

It was necessary to coordinate the activities for collecting and purchasing the supplies along with the design of the actual menu. Additionally, I had to organize the volunteers and develop a schedule to ensure all tasks were completed in an effective and timely manor. Beginning in mid 2011 with an appointment at Ronald McDonald house, along with a tour to familiarize myself with the facilities and equipment available for this task is how this project unfolded. Organizing an outline, besides developing the schedule to accomplish all of the many tasks was the next step in my design. Next, I explained and introduced the events to my Scout leadership and its members.
