Chapter 9 Video Case Assignment

Chapter 9 Video Case Assignment

Q After watching the video, answer the three critical thinking questions listed below. Since this is an individual assignment and is not to be shared with your classmates, send your responses via this drop box and do not post your answers on the course discussion forum. Use the customer service techniques from the textbook to support your responses. Do NOT include the question in your completed case assignment. Each critical thinking question response should be a minimum of 5 sentences in length. Responses to critical thinking questions that are less than 5 sentences will be considered insufficient and will be penalized. Your work will be checked for plagiarism through Safe Assign. Students need to upload their completed case assignments BEFORE the due date, so that they can see the similarity report. Any student work with a similarity report greater than 25% will receive a grade of zero on this assignment for plagiarism and the student will not have the opportunity to re-submit the assignment. Before the due date, students may upload their completed assignment an unlimited number of times. Click this video link if you can't see the video above. Critical Thinking Questions: 1. How is technology changing the work that employees are doing in this organization? Provide specific examples from the video to support your response. 2. What are some of the reasons that employees resist changes in technology? Are these valid concerns? Yes or no, why or why not? 3. What steps (not seen in the video) should have the organization done to better prepare employees for the technology change? Explain and support your response. Please view how your video case assignment will be graded using the rubric. Important Hint If you plan to type your answer directly into the text box, we highly recommend you use a word processing program. (PC users: You may use WordPad or NotePad. Mac users: You may use TextEdit.) Please make sure you save your work as you go along. When you are done, CUT and PASTE your answer into the empty box. That way, if for any reason you lose your internet connection in the middle of typing your answer, you won't lose all the work you have done up to that point. Only use the Comments area for comments to your instructor, not for submitting your assignments.

Menial tasks are not required to be done by the employees of the organization in the video because of availability of most developed technology to complete such tasks. For example, planning of specific schedules in the organization can be done conveniently within a short period of time because of using the computer/laptop/calculator. Productivity can get exponentially enhanced because of saving time to complete tedious tasks. Stored information can be applied to ensure that efficiency in not repeating similar mistakes can be developed by employees.
