Please review the following scenario and place yourself in the position of the new Human Resource Manager for Acme Manufacturing. Once you understand the circumstances of the problems in this organization, please respond to the questions that the General Manager has posed.
Scenario: You just started work as the new Human Resources Manager for Acme Manufacturing, a Fortune 1,000 company. The job was vacant for 6 months prior to your hiring. You have wondered about this, especially since reading about employee harassment incidents and fights recently in the news.
The General Manager (GM) calls you into his office the minute you arrive. He shuts the door after saying a quick word of welcome and begins to tell you about an incident that happened last week that needs your immediate attention. The company's manufacturing operation runs three shifts of production workers so that the plant is operating 24/7. Over the past 6 months, hostilities have arisen between employees on the third and first shifts. What started out as jeering and criticisms by the first shift, claiming they have to clean up the mess and complete all of the work left undone by the third shift, has escalated to physical confrontations and altercations. Although the GM says that aggressive bantering back and forth is common for shift workers in manufacturing, he admits that he is worried about further violent escalation. The GM says he needs your help.
Write a 5–7-page memo to the GM that provides your responses to his questions above. Be sure to cite any references used in proper APA format.

Two of the most central lessons of organizational culture are that (1) different companies have very different cultures and subcultures, and (2) the fit between a person and the culture is a critical factor in determining job success and satisfaction. With that in mind, assume you have just received two job offers and both firms have offered the same pay, same job description, and same geographic location. So your hope is to begin to sort out which of those firms would be the best fit for you.
(a) What types of culture differences are most important to you in an organization?
(b) What questions would you ask to determine this and why (tie to chapter concepts)?
(c) What would be the sources of information (systems, rituals, traditions, values) you would seek to help determine the nature of each culture, and your potential fit? (It may help if you think about your own organization if you are working, or research a well known company, and then give an example.)
