You are a mid-level HR manager in a rapidly growing company. Unfortunately, the growth of the company
Question:
You are a mid-level HR manager in a rapidly growing company. Unfortunately, the growth of the company outpaced its approach to employee selection, performance appraisal, and promotion decisions. You have been tasked with making suggestions that will "bring the company into the new era." Namely, your job is to present a compelling argument for adopting new processes that integrate scientifically-backed process and tools as well as evidence-based practices.
You are to answer the question below in essay form. Using the prompt above, you should develop a scenario to help explain why 1) it is important to consider the factors in your response, 2) the benefits of doing so (hint: think objectivity), and 3) the legal implications of current procedures versus your suggestions. Your response should be between two-to-four pages. Please adhere to scholarly writing conventions (i.e., grammar) and cite your sources (provide page numbers for textbook citations).
Question:
- Your organization is interested in updating its selection process to include personality as a predictor. One of your supervisors suggested considering the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) as a potential selection tool because of its face validity. Another supervisor is advocating for a version of the Big Five personality assessment. Given your knowledge of job analysis, reliability, and validity, what steps would you take prior to recommending either assessment? Is one of the assessments better than the other? If so, please provide a few details about that assessment and clearly state and support why it's a viable alternative? As you develop your answer, please address and integrate the relevant legal considerations
