The major responsibilities of human resources management are attracting, developing, and
maintaining a quality workforce.

Review the RSPS (Rancho Solano) case study (SEE ATTACHMENT) Recall that the board of
directors at RSPS has hired you as part of a consulting team to review the situation and present
your findings and recommendations. Refresh your memory on the issues in the K-12 sector in
general, as well as in the case of RSPS in particular, by reading the case study again. Your next
task is to identify three subsystems that are in need of change in RSPS, as well as the people
(human resources) you would attract, develop, and maintain in order to effectively implement
change.

Based on the RSPS case, you will choose one subsystem to change and write a 1,250-1,500 word
paper in which you address the following questions that pertain to the major human resource
management responsibilities and to change management. Strengthen your recommendations by
showing how your proposed changes are working in another successful organization. In your
comparison, consider referring to successful private, charter, or public schools in Arizona. A list
of recommended websites and articles is provided at the end of this document for use in
conjunction with this assignment.

Address then following in your paper:

1. What one major organizational subsystem needs to be changed in RSPS? Justify your
choice. How does it compare to any of the successful private, charter, or public schools in
Arizona?

2. How will the subsystem change affect the two other subsystems within RSPS that you
have identified and how will you realign the total system?
 3. Identify and explain how you would ensure that the proposed change will satisfy any
three stakeholders of RSPS?

4. How should RSPSattract,develop, andmaintainthe workforce required to bring

about your proposed change?

1. Choose at least one of the following in your discussion about attracting a quality
workforce to support the change: human resource planning, recruitment, or
selection.

2. Choose at least one of the following in your discussion about developing a quality
workforce to support the change: employee orientation, training and development,
or performance appraisal.

3. Choose at least one of the following in your discussion about maintaining a

quality workforce to support the change: career development, work-life balance,
compensation and benefits, employee retention and turnover, or labor-
management relations.

Integrate a faith-based or worldview-based component in the paper and make a clear connection
on how it informs the groups management practices.(NOTE: Individuals all have a
worldview, and that worldview influences their decisions, values, and perceptions. It also affects
how they manage people, or think they should be managed. For this assignment, this requirement
relates to your worldview, not of RSPS.

Include at least four academic references to support your position. One of them should directly
relate to the company discussed in your paper.
