first one annotated bibliography second one informed argument

write in simple and less complicated words the two steps below:

the topic is attached below in file (student athlete ) please use the same topic and same sources. only 3 sources is needed.


Step 1: Paper 3: Annotated Bibliography:

An annotated bibliography is a fairly formal written document in which you find, assess, and reflect on each source. By doing so, you will learn more about your subject and create a useful list of sources that you may decide to incorporate into your essay. It is a great way to start a research project, and is often used as a first step. This is also good practice in MLA format, since it employs many of the formatting elements in each entry.

Writing an annotated bibliography asks you to employ several skills: using MLA format, evaluating sources, summary writing, and a bit of critique. The bibliography is a listing of the sources you consult (properly presented in MLA format), and the annotations are paragraphs telling us about the sources.For this assignment, you will be researching a goal that you think you might be interested in pursuing.That way, you will gain valuable information for your life, as well as complete an English assignment.

You are required to include THREE sources in your annotated bibliography.At least two of these must be located through the scholarly databases available through the NOVA library.

Each annotation (2 paragraphs each) will follow a summary and evaluation format.The first paragraph will be a summary of what information can be found in the source, capturing main idea and important supporting ideas.The second paragraph will include an evaluation of how valuable this source is. Consider, for example: Is it from a trustworthy source?What audience is it intended for?Is it current? Does it have an obvious bias?What are the author’s credentials? Also include how the source fits into your research.Do you think it adds something of value to your discussion?Did it offer a new perspective that you hadn’t considered on the issue? Does it bring up a counter-argument that you feel a need to refute?

Step 2: Paper 4: Informed Argument:

After your preliminary research, craft a claim that is narrow enough to develop in a fairly brief essay. Then, in approximately four typewritten pages, address this issue that relates to your goal. Realize that the goal itself, if it appears at all, will probably only serve as a brief segue into the larger issue.The paper is an argument, not a process analysis.

Remember:Your essay should have a catchy introduction with a strong claim/thesis stating your topic and a stance toward the topic. Your essay should also provide logical reasoning (avoid logical fallacies), explanations, and evidence to support your thesis. Be sure to include a paragraph or two that acknowledges and refutes the opposing viewpoint. Conclude your essay by wrapping up your ideas neatly and leaving the reader with an interesting thought or thoughts to consider.

All of this should be supported by experts who can help you to defend your points with concrete evidence. Notice, I have listed this last.The point of the paper is to give YOUR perspective on this issue, using sources to prove your point.It is not to cobble together what others have already said. In order to bolster your own point of view, you must use at least four intelligent, credible, ACADEMIC sources in order to give the reader a better understanding of the issue.(Only one of these 4 sources may be a web page; the others must be located through the NVCC library system. If you use more than four sources, you may use additional websites.)

Papers must be four to five pages (ish), typed, double spaced, and must include parenthetical documentation and a works cited list following MLA format. Remember: all direct quotes and paraphrases must be cited. Refer to materials distributed in class and available on Blackboard; consider a visit with a reference librarian or the PIER.

creating an effective communication plan for a succession planning policy

by

All work must be original and in APA format. Please address all elements of the assignment. I have attached some resources for your reference as well as the electronic version of the course text.

The organization that I selected is American Express, Corp

Internal communication plans can educate employees, relieve stress, and inspire open conversations about an organization’s future. Most importantly, communication plans can help to identify and overcome common succession barriers. Although an effective communication plan is only a small piece of the overall succession puzzle, it is the first proactive step toward laying the foundation for stakeholder collaboration and the alignment of a cohesive, systematic process. If done correctly, communication plans can increase organizational buy-in, reduce resistance, and strengthen succession planning initiatives.

In this week’s Assignment, continue to examine barriers to succession planning by applying your analysis to the organization that you selected for your Course Project. In addition, use Chapter 6, “Starting a Systematic Program,” of the course text Effective Succession Planning to formulate a company-wide plan to change the culture of an organization.

To successfully complete this Assignment, review Chapter 5, “Making the Case for Major Change” of the course text Effective Succession Planning to determine the strategies human resources (HR) can use to change the succession planning culture of an organization. Finally, synthesize the information from these resources, as well as from the other articles provided in the Learning Resources, and apply them to the scenario below.

Scenario
Assume that you are the HR manager for the organization that you chose for your Course Project. After the recent earthquakes and tsunamis that have impacted industries around the world, the scholarly conversations on the benefits of succession planning have reached an all-time high. In fact, because of this, your organization has asked you to develop such a plan to safeguard the company’s knowledge and hierarchy of internal workings. The board of directors would like you to set this plan in motion before any changeovers occur due to necessity or as a result of an unforeseen disaster. You are excited about this change in culture, as you have long been a proponent of establishing a succession plan for your organization. You are worried, however, as you know many executives might see this plan in an unfavorable light.

As you leave your meeting with the board of directors, you have your first and arguably most difficult step ahead of you. You are to come up with a communication plan that will help both the executives and mid-level employees become comfortable with the idea of succession planning. Your communication plan must educate the organization on mentoring options, as well as possible growth opportunities. You must also explicitly state that HR will use both internal and external recruiting methods to find potential successors to fill the company’s future positions. Finally, the last emphasis of your communication plan must include a positive message, ensuring all employees of the benefits that succession planning can bring, as well as encouraging them to “get involved.”

To complete this Assignment, respond to the following in a 3- to 5-page paper:

  • Develop a company-wide succession planning policy and communication plan that effectively changes the organizational culture.
    • Create a list of the top three implementation barriers associated with your organization’s succession plan.
      • Outline the way in which you would address each of these barriers.
    • Solidify the role you would like each member of the triumvirate (HR professional, CEO, and board of directors) to play in this succession plan. For example, should they continue to play the roles you identified in last week’s Assignment, or should their roles be strategically refocused?
      • Support your response by writing a role description for each player.
    • Include a mission statement for your succession plan. (Note: This mission statement should not be the same as the organization’s public mission statement. Instead, it should reflect the purpose of implementing your succession plan. Use Exhibit 6-3, “Worksheet to Formulate a Mission Statement for Succession Planning and Management,” on page 145 of the Rothwell text to guide you during the creation of your mission statement.)
    • Propose two to three goals you hope your plan will achieve. For example, what cultural changes would you like to see?
    • Describe three long-term procedures that support the policies you will need to put into place to help change the organization’s succession planning culture, for example, Dormant’s ABCD model described on pages 124-129 of the course text Effective Succession Planning.
  • Develop the key pieces (noting this is not a full-fledged communications plan) of an effective communication plan.
    • Explain the rationale behind your succession planning initiative.
      • Why are you implementing a new process for identifying successors?
      • How can this enhance the organization’s sustainable, competitive advantage?
      • How will each person in the organization be involved? In addition, how might this new process affect individuals working in the organization?
      • Describe mentoring options, as well as opportunities for growth.
      • Outline at least two internal and two external recruitment methods you aim to use.
      • Include a positive sentiment that will increase buy-in through all levels of your organization.
    • Identify at least three communication methods (e.g., internal memo, town hall meetings, outside news releases, etc.) you would use to underline the importance of both the succession plan and the needed change in organizational culture.

the method

by

It is 4 parts i have already done the first 3 parts and need u to do the other one

U will find the three parts on the file below. Do the 4th part based on them.

Here the instructions of the 4th part:

Part four of the research proposal project will require that you settle on a methodological approach. Remember, you will be collecting Data (or information about the real world) that addresses your research hypothesis. You have at this point, operationalized your concepts, which means you have an understanding of what about the real world you are actually intending to measure or study. Selection of a methodology is your effort to determine howyou will study the real world.

Tasks

1. Select a research methodology, (quantitative or qualitative). There are many different methodologies to choose from, so my suggestion is to select that research method that will best allow you to explore your research hypothesis. I would like to see the details associated with the deployment of your chosen methodology. If you plan to use a survey questionnaire (for example), you should describe the subjects of study (who you plan to administer the survey to), and how you plan to administer the survey. If you plan to use a form of content analysis (for example), you should discuss the type of sources you will be sampling, and how are you plan to identify or code relevant data. Be sure to provide as much detail as possible when describing your methodological approach.

2. Defend your choice. You should discuss why you have chosen the methodology you have selected. Talk about the benefits of the methodology you have chosen, and briefly discuss why it is a better choice for your research hypothesis when compared to other similar methodologies. I want to see that you understand the limitations of the methodology you have chosen.

Considerations

  • Consider the ethical dimensions of your selected methodology. Think about how human subjects (if applicable) will be treated.
  • Be sure to consider your approach to sampling the population, subjects of study or data sources you plan to use in your study.
  • Be sure to consider contextual issues, like time and location related to the subjects of study.
  • Be sure to consider issues of validity (making sure that the methodology you have chosen allows you to actually measure that which you intend to measure).
  • Be sure to consider that the methodology you have chosen allows you to collect and analyze your data within a reasonable time frame.
