Identify a source of external data a typical online retailer might wish to include in a customer analytics data mart.

Prepare a depiction of an analytics data environment typical to an online retailer. Include a data warehouse repository that depicts various sources of available data. Also include at least one data mart that is sourced at least in part from the data warehouse.

  1. Source Data Systems: Identify at least two source data systems that are typical to an online retailer and that might be useful to a data mining initiative to better understand the retailer’s customers.
  2. Data Warehouse: Describe the contents of a data warehouse typical to an online retailer, emphasizing sources (transactional system, supply chain management system, etc.) and data subject areas (sales, customer, supply, etc.).
  3. Data Mart: Identify the benefits and limitations of a data mart that is sourced from the warehouse to support customer analytics for a typical online retailer.
  4. External Data: Identify a source of external data a typical online retailer might wish to include in a customer analytics data mart. What benefit is gained by the addition of this external data? What challenges are presented by the integration of this external data source?

In Zia’s descriptions, the hyphenated title (or self-identified racial group, Asian American) is a strength. Describe this strength through Zia’s perspective, giving at least two examples.

The term “Asian American” is what social scientists describe as a hyphenated identity, including the adjective modifier “Asian” to the noun “American.” While there are debates about the pros and cons of hyphenated identities, one consequences is that groups that have many cultural and ethnic differences can get subsumed under a monolithic title (e.g. “Asian American” subsuming Filipino, Hmong, Japanese, Thai, Chinese and many other peoples). In Zia’s descriptions, the hyphenated title (or self-identified racial group, Asian American) is a strength. Describe this strength through Zia’s perspective, giving at least two examples.

Define the term metrics, explain how metrics are used to evaluate the success of the total rewards program, identify, describe, and provide examples of at least three metrics and share how you will collect the data for each metric.

MS PowerPoint Presentation Metrics.

This assignment provides you an opportunity to demonstrate mastery of course outcomes:

3. select metrics that are aligned with the organization’s objectives in order to ensure organizational success

4. formulate a plan for implementing a total rewards program in order to ensure success of the program

In this assignment, you will write and present a MS PowerPoint Presentation that describes and justifies the total rewards metrics that you propose. The course material provides examples of metrics and how they are used to evaluate the effectiveness of the Total Rewards Program. These metrics will used as a portion of the final paper due Week 8 (the final assessment for the class). Feedback from the instructor may require some revision to the chosen metrics prior to use in the final paper. At least three scholarly references from the course materials are to be presented in APA format, as well as respective in-text citations and relevant Web site documentation if information about the organization is taken from a Web site.

You will define the term metrics, explain how metrics are used to evaluate the success of the total rewards program, identify, describe, and provide examples of at least three metrics and share how you will collect the data for each metric and how you will set the benchmark or goal target for each that you would use to compute and analyze the Total Rewards Program in the organization you are studying in the course. Justification for the metrics linked to the organizational objectives, requisite competencies, and challenges should also be included.

What are the attributes of the learning organization and how does it align (or support) the complex adaptive healthcare system?

What are the attributes of the learning organization and how does it align (or support) the complex adaptive healthcare system? What leadership styles are inherent in learning organizations that may not be totally supported in a traditional organizational culture? Using the cultural assessment you did a few weeks ago, how does your current organizational culture and climate align with the learning organizational attributes? What other information might you need before you could make that determination? Where would you obtain it? How does your philosophy of leadership and personal leadership profile align to the attributes of the learning organization? What is the role of the nurse leader in leading and creating a shift toward becoming a learning organization?

Describe the problem that may have precipitated the decision, as well as the apparent processes used by the leaders involved in the decision-making effort.

For this Project (listed below) develop a 2-page outline of your proposed topics and subtopics. Then, identify the decision-making processes used, or any additional factors that might have led to ineffective decision making. Be sure to critique any processes used. Next, describe and justify two to three recommendations for different approaches that could have been taken. Lastly, identify potential theories that may be relevant to your Portfolio Project topic.

For this option, your final Portfolio Project is a thoughtful analysis of an ineffective or poor leadership decision. You may use a well-known leadership decision, such as the 2011 decision to split Netflix, which resulted in serious financial losses for the organization. Your project must include the following:

  • Research a leadership decision that was ineffective or did not have the desired      results.
  • Describe the problem that may have precipitated the decision, as well as the apparent processes used by the leaders involved in the decision-making      effort. Use terms from this course.
  • Critique the processes they implemented, applying what you learned from this course.
  • Recommend a different approach that could have been taken, using theories and methodologies from this course.
  • Present a strong case for how your recommendations could have altered the decision made, leading to more effective results for the organization.
  • Use theory from this course to support your evaluation, critique, and recommendations.
