and review theAdvancing Sustainability report,
then select an organization with which you are familiar (preferably, your
current workplace). Create a five to six minute, eight to 10 slide
PowerPoint presentation addressing the HRM topic of sustainability and
corporate social responsibility. The intention of the presentation
is to inform and to persuade key organizational leaders about the prospect
of developing and implementing a corporate sustainability program.
You are in the role of HR manager. The CEO has asked that you put
together this brief but informative presentation for the board of
directors. Include the following content areas in the robust and
professional slideshow: - Introduction
to the research (the SHRM report and any other applicable research
studies) and the definition of sustainability as provided in the report. - Sustainability
as an emerging area of interest. - Key
drivers for investment in sustainability. - Positive
outcomes from sustainability initiatives. - HR’s
role in creating and implementing an effective sustainability strategy. - Methods
organizations use to demonstrate commitment to sustainability. - Drawing
from research findings, suggestions, best practices, and lessons learned
in other organizations (or even the current workplace), present your vision
for a proposed corporate sustainability program for the organization to
also include: - A
definition of sustainability to fit in with your own organization’s
culture. - An
orientation toward sustainability that is much more than compliance. - A
program proposal emphasizing the people dimensions of sustainability. - Specific
methods and how those methods integrate strategically with the
organization’s mission, vision, values, and goals. - The
top five obstacles preventing organizations from implementing sustainable
workplace business practices and how to overcome those through the
proposal. - A
Christian worldview is to be integrated into the presentation and
proposal. - The
five to six minutes, eight to 10 slides PowerPoint should be
professionally constructed with a good balance of words, space, and
graphics (web links may be inserted as well). The embedded speech
notes are to be single spaced, but otherwise adhere to APA requirements
(i.e., in-text citations, two spaces between sentences, one space all else
and so forth) and mechanics (i.e., sentence structure, punctuation, word
choice, spelling, and grammar). A title slide and reference slide
are to be included, in addition to the required slide count. The
PowerPoint presentation is to have embedded notes totaling at least 600
but no more than 900 words.
