Project
Assume you have recently joined a tech company “High Tech Pros” (simulated, not a real business) that has grown rapidly from a small start -up to now employing over 200 staff. Of the 200, 125 are full-time staff and 75 are contractors (who are hired as required). Most are technical officers (analysts, programmers etc.) with 16 being administrative staff looking after accounts, marketing, sales, HR and general administration.
Both the owners and the managers they have employed are highly skilled technically but have little true management experience. The owners have plans to grow by up to 100% over the next 12 months and know they need processes to ensure they manage their staff. They have read about Google’s success in motivating and managing staff and have asked you to complete Parts A to D below in order to:
Put a performance management process in place for all staff
Help their managers transition from being competent technicians into being great managers
Read the following case study about the real company “Google” (no need to google
This March, Fortune named Google, already the world’s biggest search engine, the number one employer for the sixth year in a row, making the tech company the ultimate talent magnet.…
“The capabilities of IT systems allow a more sophisticated and analytical approach to HR than was possible in the past”, says Mark Thompson, Head of Reward Consulting at management firm Hay Group. Thus, cold hard facts are employed in order to keep the chances of unexpected outcomes to an absolute minimum.
At Google, employees are considered the company’s most valuable asset – the backbone of the organisation. They are given freedom, a healthy work-life balance, incredible perks, and even the chance to have fun at work. There are many who maintain that such radical practices are a waste of money and time, and some may find them simply absurd. And yet, the results speak for themselves.
“What HR should and must focus on is understanding the relationship between the things which motivate and engage people as individuals”, says Laurence Collins, Director of HR and Workforce Analytics at Deloitte. “The environment, work, growth, reward and flexibility it offers, [are] part of the employee proposition.”…
Each year, two million people apply for around 5,000 vacancies at Google. With better odds of being accepted into Harvard or even of being struck by lightning, many hopeful candidates turn to unorthodox means to make themselves stand out. Lazslo Bock, Head of People Operations at Google, told Forbes in a recent interview that he often receives pleas, bribe offers and even threats from applicants. …
During the recruitment process, Google uses an algorithm to make predictions regarding which candidates have the best chances of succeeding at the role in question. Those with a very high IQ are often chosen, although the ability to learn and absorb information is considered more important. Riddles and brainteasers are no longer used, as analysis carried out by the department has found that those who do well in such exercises are not necessarily the best candidates. Traditional interview questions have thus made a comeback in Google’s interview process. …
The people operations team also looks for those who will fit into the firm’s unique culture. Namely, they are looking for ‘Googleyness’ or, in plain English, intellectual humility. … So as to prevent shortsightedness, verdicts, such as whom to hire and fire, how performance is rated and which promotions are given, are never made unilaterally. “Each of these decisions is instead made either by a group of peers, a committee, or a dedicated, independent team”, writes Bock in his book Work Rules.
…
Generally, people spend most of their lives at work. It is, therefore, vital for it to be as pleasant as possible. Furthermore, an infinite budget or worldwide status is not necessary to create such a setting, as many cynics often claim in response to Google’s style of management. Considering employees as the most precious commodity within a business is how it can be achieved. Creating an environment in which employees want to get up and go to work can enable them to reach their full potential – to the benefit of their employers and all those around them. To s ome, this may seem like an unmanageable task, but it really isn’t – Google proves that it is possible.
Part A
Based on what you have read so far in this “Google” case study, plus other research and your experience, develop recommendations for:
a. A performance management process that would suit the company you joined “High Tech Pros”, keeping in mind that some employees are part -time or contracted.
b. Organisational timeframes for formal performance management sessions. c. A quality improvement plan for the performance management process.
Part B
Explain who you would consult with at “High Tech Pros” and outside that company,
to ensure there is agreement on the new formal performance management
process you recommended in Part A.
Part C
Develop a series of short lunch-time sessions for the “High Tech Pros” management team (use a few bullet points for each session) to train them on: a. How to develop KPIs for their staff.
b. How to provide feedback to under-performers c. Basic staff coaching techniques
d. Dispute resolution and mediation processes e. How to conduct a performance review
f. Recording information and storing documents relating to performance reviews and performance management sessions.
Note: You should be mindful of maintaining the attention of managers given their different learning styles and may use PowerPoint, video, Word documents or any other technology that is accessible and appropriate for this task.
Part D
Design a coaching/mentoring program to support managers at “High Tech Pros” in their role. You may choose to use internal or external providers (or both), but must provide a rationale for your choice and explain the process of introducing the program including consultation with key stakeholders.
discuss. If you are not currently working in HR, consult your tutor/assessor about work experience or an alternative task.

The first step will be to select an organization as the target for your Network Administration Processes and Procedure Guide. This organization can be real or hypothetical, and it will be used as the basis for each of the assignments throughout the course. It should conform to the following guidelines:
Nontrivial: The selected organization should be large and should contain a network infrastructure that requires the implementation of network administration processes and procedures.
Domain knowledge: You should be familiar enough with the organization and typical network administration needs without significant time required for network administration research and education.
Accessibility: You should have good access to network administration officers and management in the organization

Company Profile
The Education Community Services Group (ECSG) has been leading the market in educational services enrollments the past five years. After reviewing proper data and statistics, the company needs to address issues in its response for better future requirements of the business. When the chief executive officer (CEO) noticed that something had to be done to respond to the competition from online and traditional campus-based education, he and the rest of the management team decided to instill confidence by transforming the current network administration architecture and information technology (IT) infrastructure to create a better network infrastructure and educational offerings. Revamping the IT network administration architecture is an important infrastructure improvement, and it will help transition an adequate network administration capability to the very latest-state-of-the-art technology standard.

Architecture Evaluation (Week 1)
Evaluate the current network administration architecture (NAA) for Education Community Services Group (ECSG). Develop a course of action based on the resources that NAA supports and are used at ECSG. As a consulting company, you need to discuss how you will automate the company as well as revamp its enterprise network administration architecture. Identify positive and negative aspects of the selected model in relation to the operational health of an organization. Further interviews, observation, visiting sites, questionnaires, or surveys may be needed as fact- finding analysis that will help in the NAA evaluation stage. After fact-finding is complete, the course of action is designed. Once the design is reported to ECSG, then other things such as price and charge or quotations should be set.
The network administration architecture has to be evaluated and then demonstrate the availability of a suitable network administration architecture. The company can outsource, design from scratch, buy already existing network hardware and software and configure it, or buy hardware and software off the shelf. The network administration architecture will run on the listed and needed hardware and software discussed the in the next section.
With the onset of technology, some managers may experience role reversals when coaching and mentoring their younger subordinates. Simons (2010) addresses leveraging generational work styles to meet organizational goals.
1. How can these same generational differences play a role in coaching and mentoring processes?
2. Discuss the dynamics of a work environment in which generational differences can influence the communications style of the manager/coach.
3. Describe the differences in the mentoring expectations of Generation X and Y.
