TASK 1a
Introduction
Yamaha Corporation is a Japanese multinational corporation with a range of product
and services. Yamaha was established by Torakusu Yamaha in Hamamatsu Shizuoka
Japan in the year 1897. The company is into production of piano, motorcycles and
others, and the company origin as a musical instrument manufacture and still reflect
today in their logo. Yamaha have grown to become the world’s largest musical
instrument manufacture as well as leading manufacture of semi conducts, specialty,
metals and industrial robots. (Anon., 2018)
Planning
Planning is the process of thinking the activities regarding your goal and also the steps
taking to get your result (Anon., 2022). Planning is about deciding something you what
to do and how to do it, in my chosen organization like Yamaha corporation when they
are planning in the company, they make sure their vision and mission ideal will take
effect, and they considered the strategizing way to achieve their goal and objective. The
Manager used skills when planning for the company to make the productivity goes on.
In my organization the manager set a long-term strategic plan for the marketing
department, that by the next 3 to 5 year the marketing department should be able to
earn multiply sale of what they used to earn before. For example, the manager of the
marketing and sales department developed and operation short term plan to increase
sales by 25% for the first quarter of 2022.
Organizing
Organizing is making arrangement for something or preparation toward something, it is
the function that combined human physical and financial resources to takes place
(Prachi, 2015). Manager always has to organize in order to get result and also
organization can function when it is well organized (Robbins & Coulter, 2018). The
manager in Yamaha Company needs to make good organization for the employees to
determine the task to be done and who is to do them for you to achieve your target. The
manager has to set a rule in place for the division of work and where decision have to
be made for them to accomplish their goal. For example, the manager must make
preparation for account, making sales, record keeping in the company.
Commanding
Commanding is leading or motivating to get the best out of the people working for the
organization in order to achieve the effect of the effort of workers (Alexander, 2021).The
manager has to give instruction and orders for the work to be done in an organization.
Given command to impact the vision of the organization in order to achieve their goal by
motivating their employee. Manager in an organization have to hold meeting in order to
take action of every priority of the company. For example, the manager has to get the
best for the people working for the organization by commanding.
Co-ordinating
Co-ordinating is the integration of the effort of the group members so as to provide unity
in pursuit common goal. Good coordinate aim to ensure optimal between the various
activities of the organization (Alexander, 2021) .Manager in Yamaha Company, you
need to organize people for them to work together to achieve one goal. The manager
has to get good resource for their employee and to encourage the practices to achieve
their result. For example, a sale manager will coordinate his task with a sales
supervisor.
Controlling
Controlling is the function of management to seek planned result from the subordinates,
manager and at all levels of an organization and it also compliance with everything that
happens in the organization with plan (Prachi, 2015).Manager has to control,
monitoring, correcting and comparing the activities in the company as it is planned and
also check the progress of the work. Manager has to perform a role in an organization
by checking the performance of their employee to achieve their goal (Robbins &
Coulter, 2018).For instead, a senior manager controls the action of a middle manager
and a supervisor, as the manager control all action in the organization.
TASK 2a
Decision Making is the technique of creating selections with the aid of using figuring out
a decision, amassing facts and assessing opportunity resolution. These are 8 stages I
would like to consider when solving problem in Yamaha Corporation.
Identify a Problem
In decision making, the first thing is to identify a problem. In my chosen organization,
Yamaha will clearly identify the root cause of the problem in the company before we
solve it. The manager identifies two problems: they are dropping in sales (need to
increase sales by online promotions) and the manager also identified that their product
is losing value in the market. Without identifying the problem and determining what the
problem is in the Yamaha corporation, one cannot come up with a suitable solution.
The decision criteria are the sets of principles, guidelines, and requirements that an
organization uses to make a decision. Once the manager has identified the problem, he
or she has to identify the decision criteria for the problem because they are dropping in
sales (need to increase in sales by online promotions).
The decision criteria for increasing sales are: global reach, interactivity, engagement
tracking, and cost.
Yamaha Corporation needs to weigh the kind of problem they have identified. It is
important the manager weighs the criteria of the problem by weighing the things they
will need to do in the sales department to increase their sales and meet their target, and
also by gathering information from others and talking with your board members about
the problem and situation you are considering. z
Analyse alternatives
Yamaha Corporation needs to develop alternative ways to solve their problem. You
have to come on board and analyse every problem you have identified and develop.
Each opportunity is evaluated via way of means of appraising it towards the standards.
The strengths and weaknesses of every opportunity end up obvious as they’re as
compared with the standards and weights established. Yamaha corporation has to use
alternative methods in their ideas to develop which alternative is preferable.
The decision marker has to implement all the ideas developed in the alternatives by
putting the decision into action. The choice is placed into motion with the aid of using
conveying it to the ones affected and getting their commitment. Once the best among
the alternatives has been selected, it must be implemented properly to achieve the
objective of the decision you are solving for the company. After the manager has
implemented the decision, it should be given careful orientation for the company.
(Surbhi, n.d.)
Task 3a
Strategic management is the implementation of the goal and the initiative taken by the
organization and also provides overall direction to the organization's objective,
technology, and developing policies to achieve those objectives (Nag, et al., 2007). An
area in my organization that needs change is the storage and organization of files. This
change requires a change in procedure by purchasing equipment and software for
storing and processing Yamaha’s data. A manager would use a computer and database
management system to collect, store, process, and organize all data in the company as
well as retrieve and manage data in a database.
This change can be implemented through the use of a cost leadership strategy. After
the manager has purchased the computer and the database management system, it will
help in reducing their cost of data collection, processing, and management. This will
help the company to keep costs down by having a solid structure in everything and also
reducing costs for them with the help of the computer and database management
systems.
It will help me address my issues in the technology aspect by helping the company in
the keeping of their data and information, and it has helped me implement a cost
leadership strategy in a way of reducing the cost of the computer and database
management system.
3b.
Effective teamwork is owning your responsibility of staying accountable and doing you
say you’re going to do (O'Neill, 2019).Effective team work is the heart of every
organization success. This are some of the characteristics of effective teamwork and
assign to appropriate models and theories in my organization. Clear Goal, Appropriate
Leadership, Mutual Trust and Good Communication.
Clear Goal: For a teamwork to be effectives they need to be agreed goal and its
objectives, the team have to understand, accept and committed in achieving a clear
goal. A clear goal is realistic and its goal has to be achievable by being clear and
specific about what you want to achieve. The Yamaha company needs to have effective
teamwork and their members have to be committed to the team and work hard for them
to achieve their goal
(Robbin & Mary, 2021). According to goal setting theory, which says that particular desires
boom overall performance and that hard desires. Every individual must be dedicated to
the goal and self-sufficient in order to be effective in teamwork.
Task 4a
Leadership is a manner of main a collection and influencing that organization to obtain
its dreams and additionally motivation their people. As a manager in a group, you are
going to face different common way of leadership challenge (Robbin & Coulter,
2021).Low productivity is the leadership challenge my organization is facing.
4b
They are four controls process my organization will be looking at in their production
department.
Performance objective and standard are the expectancies for worker roles and duties as
they relate to the agency's mission, vision, and values. Performance requirements are
measurable standards towards which a worker's attempt is evaluated to decide the
extent of functioning (Robbin & Coulter, 2021). To illustrate, the manager should set a
performance standard as to “increase production of keyboards per month by 25% by
end of September, 2022.
By comparing the actual performance of the production department if they meet their
target of production by the 25%.
If strings and piano are under that means they need to perform more to meet their target
they have set by the 25%. And digital keyboard and keyboard are over that means they
meet want they expected.
