Here is the scenario and situation:
Assume you are an employee working in the Amazon warehouse, and you pack orders and categorize them into small, medium, and large batches. You are considered a packer. You have experience packing all sizes and have been with the organization for two years. You are considered one of their best employees. You have a solid reputation for being a hard worker, and your orders are packed correctly. You have also been busy; you recently completed Amazon’s management training program, and you have completed your BABA degree at the Forbes School of Business and Technology at the University of Arizona Global Campus.
Congratulations: You have just been promoted to manager. You will oversee a team of 10 supervisors and 90 packers and will now oversee the entire warehouse operation. How will you apply the five functions of management?
For this assignment, you will apply the five functions. Prepare a PowerPoint presentation and include the following sections as your headers:
Planning:
Examine the specific areas you will manage that fall under the planning function.
For example, what might be some of the things you plan to do and implement to build an effective team and culture? People are the most critical resource in any business; what do you plan to do to build a positive team culture? What processes and systems do you plan to use?
Organizing:
Assess if the present structure that Amazon has set up is working.
Do you need to make or suggest any changes to make it more efficient and effective? What structure will you use and implement? Explain how you will use departmentalization in your organizational structure.
Staffing:
Analyze your staffing needs.
How do you intend to staff your organization and replace members who leave or are promoted? How does the HR process apply? What things (if any) will you suggest?
Leading:
Justify the leadership theory and style you will follow to ensure efficiency.
Will you use transformational or transactional leadership? Why or why not?
Controls:
Identify what controls and measures you will implement.
How will you apply the four control steps (these are in Chapter 7: establishing standards, measuring performance, comparing performance, and making decisions)?
