Write an essay of 150 words answering the following questions
Questions:
1. What do you think will change most dramatically in the future in terms of what it will
take to attract young people to companies?
2. Think about the best and worst bosses you’ve ever had. To what extent did human
resource management skills differentiate the two? In particular, which skills?
3. As you look forward to a future management position, what HRM strengths and
weaknesses do you feel you have?
4. If you look at your university, what HR activities does it perform well? What are
needed improvements?
5. What do you think will be the most challenging HR activities in the future?
Students always surprise me with their creativity when offered an open ended
question such as this. I try to let them roam as widely as possible, only reining
them in to the extent that they link their answers to the HR function.
