CONFIDENTIAL
A large local organization involved in the administration field. This organization had
various departments involved in one large organization that I will exclude the name of for
confidentiality reasons. This organization has thousands of employees in a variety of
different positions, jobs, and assignments. Some employees are full time, others are
contract. Additionally, this organization has a mixture of skilled workers and entry level
positions.
2) Describe how Describe your role in the organization (it can be internal or external).
I had an internal role in this organization. My position changed in a variety of ways, from
entry level, to more specialized position. In these roles I saw the organization from
several different perspectives and the day to day operations. My main role in this scenario
was primarily teaching classes / training and keeping updated files on employees with
certain certifications. Although I focused on the files involving the employees I tracked,
while we looked for information on these employees, we discovered the overall problem
with all employee file tracking. To access records on employees I would have to speak to
2 to 3 different employees to access the different tracking system we were using.
3) Describe the situation. (see the Canvas instructions for details, especially about how
your situation will be analyzed from five different perspectives over the next five
modules)
We needed to upgrade and improve a file system that had been mismanaged for over 5
years. The files were in disarray and our inspections were showing flaws in our ability to
track data, completion of tasks, training, personnel files, and other important pieces of
information. When information was requested it often times could not be found. Not only
1
did we have 2 different digital tracking systems, we also had random pieces of paper
jammed into files that had not been inputted into the digital systems. Sometimes these
pieces of paper would be found in the completely wrong file.
