Module 8 Signature Assignment In this final assignment, we will build upon the Case Assignment scenario but address what we learned in modules 5 – 8. Remember that you are employed as an HR Manager responsible for training and development for a large company (an organization of your choice, e.g., retail, technology, etc.), which has recently acquired a new company about 1500 miles from the parent organization where you are based. The President of the organization approached you asked you to address issues of lack of skillets and competencies within employees, which led to severe performance issues in the organization. Consequently, you proposed a training plan and desired outcomes. Nevertheless, you also discovered more issues that needed addressing so you now need to write a report of what needs to be done further to ensure the success of the organization. For instance, you discovered the following: Senior level executives are lacking the competencies to supervise employees within their departments There are cultural and language barriers between the 3 companies and some supervisors are uncomfortable when addressing those outside their geographic location There is little or no documentation of previous training within departments across all 3 locations even though you were told that everyone is trained. You ask for evidence of training and receive a few word documents and spreadsheets, but some names are missing. Most importantly, you learn that some employees are 1 / 4threatening to file complaints outside the organization because they feel discriminated against for a variety of reasons, e.g., gender, age, cultural background, etc. For this case assignment, prepare an 8-10 page paper in which you addressing the aforementioned issues within the company.

Describe the type of training and development you will mandate for the diverse workforce in your organization. In addition, discuss any plans to mitigate the risk of legal issues in the organization. 5. In responding to each of the above areas, always include when you plan to train, where you plan to train, and who will be trained. 2 / 46. After you conclusion, write 3-4 paragraphs about what you learned by writing this paper. Include a title page and reference page, but exclude table of contents.

Introduction
Organizations with diverse backgrounds are fruitful in enhancing efficacy. The skillsets and ideas of people are vast and due to exposure to different cultures, their way of thinking is different. There are certain aspects where conflicts arise among the employees regarding certain issues, which can sometimes lead to harassment that is toxic for the work environment. This has been the case for the organization, which has recently opened one of its offices.
The identified problems as an HR are skill gaps among the senior managers, discrimination among the groups and lack of training record. Based on these problems, different tools and techniques have been developed in this report and plans have been formed for implementation to reduce those problems. That can create a smooth workflow where there will be better understanding among the employees and they will be properly guided by their leaders. 
1. Plan to Identify and Implement the Type of Coaching Necessary for Senior-Level Executives
Coaching is a type of guidance that is provided to people through formal or informal programs for assisting individuals in improving their knowledge or skill set (Britton, 2015). Behavior assessments can be carried out for finding out the skills that are needed but are lacking among the senior-level executives. There are multiple stages of coaching, which are started from scratch, while a number of instructions are given to the managers. However, if they are competent enough, then this is a short period and then comes the doer stage where the managers will start performing though they have not mastered what is to be done.
They are putting efforts in whatever they are doing. This might bring good results. Finally, the forming stage is when the full workload is taken by the managers and they are handling those responsibilities and afterwards, they have mastered doing that and become an expert at the last step. In the chosen scenario, the managers lack the skillset, so providing them with individual assistance for carrying out their day-to-day performances would be applicable. This can provide them with the skills required for the maintenance of their capacity. 
Executive coaching would be most suitable in this case, where talent will be developed by meeting the managers one-on-one, providing those with a safe, trustworthy environment for support (Rekalde, Landeta, Albizu & Fernandez-Ferrin, 2017). The leadership skills of managers need to be polished and regardless of how many people are there in the team, the skills are almost the same for the senior managers (Marson, 2019).
This is different from personal development or career development coaching, where the productivity of the person is increased, which is not a teaching session by finding out the strength and weakness of the people. Formulating the type of training required by one person can be different from the other and that is why prior to plan, the identifications of the potential and drawbacks in the individuals are required, which can be compared with the needed skill sets of their job roles. The gap will be identified and then the type of training required for each will be provided to boost their competency. This will result in the development of the required skills and that will be evaluated afterwards. 
2. Plan to Train and Develop Diverse Workforce Individually and Team within All 3 Locations 
Diversity is a strength of a workplace where different people with diverse backgrounds can contribute and create ideas that can give the workplace more competency (Ng & Sears, 2020). Diversity at the workplace can boost performance overall and the output can also be enlarged. However, the people in the case scenario are facing discrimination, which might be hampering the work performance as they are not happy working here.
This issue can be addressed through offering multilingual courses and the training should be conducted in multi-language. If possible, there will be different training sections where the primary language-based training will be given. If this is an e training, then there can be language options provided for people from diverse backgrounds. Apart from that, the teams should be developed in a way where the people would be from different backgrounds.
Besides, while working together, they will cooperate with each other and then the group identity will be more important to them (Gomez-Zara, Guo, DeChurch & Contractor, 2020).
