At the beginning of the previous academic year, the institution announced it would drop football at the conclusion of the season. The announcement created public relations issues with alumni, current athletes, and the local community. Donations to the athletic department have dropped 35% in the past year. At the same time, women’s volleyball advanced to post-season play for the first time in the program’s history, winning the conference championship and earning an automatic berth in the NCAA Tournament. The men’s soccer team, coming off its best season in five years, has landed two superstar recruits who turned down NCAA Division I scholarships in order to attend Strops University.
You have been hired to create a marketing plan focusing on the broad success of athletics at Strops University, with a specific focus on reversing the decline in donations to the athletic program. The university seeks to build support for all of its student athletes. A key component of the marketing plan will be a sports information packet that highlights the accomplishments of each team. Based on the information provided, select two teams—one recently successful, and one recently struggling—and create a comprehensive sports information plan to distribute to alumni and fans at games. Your plan should include areas such as academic success, community service, etc. in addition to winning percentage in an effort to increase support of, and donations to the programs.

/in /by

Employee development is critical to an organization’s and an individual’s success. Throughout Chapter 8, we have reviewed information about personal development plans. We all have goals and objectives that we hope to accomplish, which will allow us to grow and develop. It is important that we create personal development plans to ensure that we are working towards achieving the goals set forth.
For this assignment, you are required to create your own development plan, which involves a short-term plan (spanning 1-2 years) and a long-term plan (spanning 3-5 years). In both your short-term plan and long-term plan, provide two development objectives, details regarding how these objectives will be acquired, the timeframe associated with skill/competency acquisition, and the type of support that you need from a professional and personal standpoint. Consider, when developing these objectives, utilizing SMART goals. 
In total, your plan should incorporate four development objectives and associated details (e.g., two for the short-term plan and two for the long-term plan). Remember that the goals identified are your own. There is no right answer to the goals and objectives that you have created. Therefore, be creative in this assignment submission, while ensuring that you utilize the recommendations set forth in Chapter 8.

/in /by

(USE ATTACHED FILE)Reskin, who chaired the Sociology Department at Ohio State University from 1993 to 1995, was named a professor of sociology at Harvard last September. Reskin is recognized as the foremost authority on the subject of gender and the workplace. She has written five books, including Women and Men at Work in 1994. Her recent work, however, has branched into the overlap of gender with race and ethnicity.Reskin recently finished writing a book examining the truths and myths surrounding affirmative action in the workplace. Called The Realities of Affirmative Action, the book shows that the actual impact of affirmative action is much less intrusive than many believe. Among other things, affirmative action requires large employers to post job openings and to use objective evaluation standards, measures that also benefit many people who are not members of non-white groups.The book also presents poll data showing that the majority of Americans support programs that level the playing field in employment. Support drops, however, when charged words like “quotas” and “preferences” are used. Quotas are illegal and Supreme Court rulings bar employers from what are popularly known as preferences — race- or gender-conscious affirmative action — unless they are narrowly tailored and address long-standing inequities. READ THE CHAPTER AND WRITE A 4 PARAGRAPH REFLECTION ON THE FOLLOWING QUESTION Based on what you have learned within this course and others, is affirmative action still relevant in today’s work environment???
