Annual Report
The second half of the Human Resources Simulation was a great learning experience for me. My group had been very successful in achieving desirable results during the first portion of the simulation, and when we began falling behind the industry averages in certain areas during the second half of the simulation, we were a bit stumped concerning what our best options for continued success were. What I learned at this time was that it is very difficult to make a change in one area of a company without having an effect of some sort on other aspects of the company as well. For example, when my group was forced to fire several employees during quarter six, our morale decreased significantly despite wage increases that we implemented specifically to counteract this damage, but our productivity level improved. Weighing the positive and negative results of each action from that point on was a challenge, but it was a good lesson about business management as well.
