HR Strategies

When completing the "Internal and External Analysis" assignment earlier in the course project you were tasked with creating three strategic goals for your chosen company. From this assignment forward, you will be choosing one of those goals and carrying it through the strategic management process. Feel free to rewrite and improve the goal, but make your choice wisely. It will impact many of the upcoming project assignments. This assignment will require you to develop a staffing plan to attract, develop, and retain good employees to work on your chosen goal. It's very important that you're linking all of your choices to how it will help you accomplish that goal. Everything should be custom fit to that goal and that will be a big portion of the grading. For your staffing assignment, you'll need to write a detail breakdown of your HR staffing strategies that's at least two pages in length and addresses the following:
