Eventually,
I submitted the 10% marks assignment in the time remaining of 2 hours 55 minutes.
Well,
what does it meant by the keyword of "10% marks assignment"?
It mean by the hard work below just deserve a total of barely 10% if I attain a grade of HD.

Horrible right??
However,
I truly believe that that's the only way to earn the reputation of being an Australian graduate.
And also,
finally I came to a realization that being an australian graduate or overseas graduate isn't something that money can buy it.
It's about super duper strict task achievement, super duper rigorous Plagiarism rate and super duper much workload to earn an Australian's Bachelor Degree.
Vividly recalled back the time when I was in MMU ,
Awww.... I could attended 2 week classes and skipped another 12 week classes and pass with flying colours by just randomly duplicate someone's work.
When I got barred from the examination due to 80% of absence rate,
when I seen the lecturer in order to get unbarred,
she could even asked me 'Who you want to see?' when I entered the room.
LOL!
It meant that she didn't even knows who I am because I never attended her class before.
HAHAHA!
HAHAHA!
Anyway,
when I seeing my outcome below,
I can tell that my trauma of seventeen had partially recovered and thus the effectiveness of studies had gradually improved,
there's no any solid reasons to prove this evidence,
there's no why you performed marvelously in Australia rather than in Malaysia or why you switched course from Engineering to Journalism or there's even no why how you did it with this 360 degree transformation?
But perhaps a better learning environment with abundance of shopping and beach areas to loosen my tension?
From this aspect,
I tell myself luckily medication works after a couple of years and I've witnessed the effectiveness.
Besides than bedtime hours,
I've successfully get rid that compulsive traumatic flashbacks in most of the times.
Another part of reason, maybe that's the greatness of apologize "Sorry, sorry, really sorry."

Communication and Organization assignment 1
Proposal of Strategic Communication Audit
In the circumstance of internal communication processes, Adelaide City Council (ACC)
is about to proceed the recruitment of Chair and Board members of the Adelaide
Central Market Authority (ACMA). To succeed in this recruitment, Adelaide City
Council needs the services of an experienced Board recruiter to form a whole
part of the recruitment process. In the process of selections, the activities
are to held interview and selection methodologies based on current board and
executive recruitment principles that boost the brand of ACC and ACMA, offer an
marvellous experience for applicants that demonstrate ACC's brand and ACMA
criteria and also confirm that all relevant verifications of applicants are
assured to lighten risk as well as serves as a member of the organization to
lead and support, the selection panel to confirm that the best recommendations
are proposed to council. Robert Blake and Jane Mouton established their Managerial Grid as a method to train
managers in leadership styles which may increase organizational efficiency, boost
the satisfaction as well as innovation abilities of every worker (Blake &
McCanse, 1991; Blake & Mouton, 1964). They assumed that leaders will be
effective to the maximum outcome when they display both concern for people and
concern for production, therefore incorporating the classical management which
is concern for production and human relations which function as concern for
people.
In the process of recruitment and selection, there are a few
challenges which need to be overcome within the organization, there are
·
recruitment
strategy
·
expenses
·
interviewing
skills
·
the
internal promotion
As a solution to help the recruitment is to determine whether
the interviewee will bring maximum benefits to the organization or not, it may
be expensive when sum up the costs of recruitment, orientation and training,
particularly if the organization provides benefits to the employees. Salaries
of a full time worker may be costly, so considering a contract employee might
help. Besides, recruitment costs include advertising sector, professional
memberships in the organization as well as career fair sponsorship. Therefore,
outsourcing services may help in this facet which is to lighten the
accountability of recruitment and administer an employee who specializes in
full time recruiting. On the other hand, the decision of hiring someone is
basically the entitlement of a manager instead of a HR practitioner. Thus, part
time recruiters may take over the accountability of assisting hiring managers
and also panel members for applicant interviews. HR department interviewers
have the rights to offer the kind of opinions whereas hiring managers have to
make their decisions wisely during the recruitment. From the facet of internal
promotion, choosing the talent that already in an organization can helps to ease
the expenses, however new applicants will most probably get into the higher
positions due to there is no such current employee within the organization.
As a result, to attain a successful recruitment in an
organization, another principle of Pfeffer's
Seven Practices of Successful Organizations (Pfeffer, 1998) is proposed to
implement the practices such as selective hiring, employment security,
self-managed teams and decentralization, extensive training, sharing
information, reduction of status differences and comparatively high and
contingent compensation will be drawn up in the conclusion to helps the
organization across the recruitment process.

Proposal of Portfolio
Portfolio Essay Topics: 3. Discuss the importance of leadership in
contemporary organisations, and its relationship to at least two specific
theories of organisational communication. Use at least one case study from the
research literature to support your discussion.
Introduction
I will be
creating a Wordpress weblog for my organizational communication portfolio. I
will be demonstrating my professional writing skill in this nine unit course
through a weblog; establishing a couple of columns to click-in in order to read
the topic contents and also a little bibliography about myself to indicate who
is the digital author. Besides than this, I create this weblog for a future
purpose, so that individuals with corporate interest, employers or even me myself
are able to read this information for future usage.
Purpose and Audience
As a building block to develop a broader structural
portfolio, here is my little setup to show my proposal as a precursor to
further studies. The purpose of a weblog is to prove my writing abilities, in
terms of professional as well as innovation ability. Moreover, creating a
weblog is also my chance to demonstrate my digital ability to future employers
and my tutor Dr Sally Lewis.
Content and Layout
Basically, my weblog will contain a header as a title, a column
of top or side bars for content click-in and a footer as design layout. In
further information, I will do a full but separate write-up for my contents; the
blog posts would specifically made up of four parts in order to answer the full
question, the blog posts are divided into the chapters of importance of
leadership in contemporary organizations, its relationship between first
specific theory, its relationship between the second specific theory and also
one case study will be used to support the discussion.
In my content structure, I will have a good write-up about
the importance of leadership in modern organizations and focus about the
strategies of leadership and its impact within an organization. For an
instance, the most successful organizations and leaders focus on their main competitiveness,
set and maintain norms that allow them to satisfy the needs of their clients
all the times as well as in all places. The particular two theories that I will
be utilized in my portfolio are theory of Peters and Waterman’s “Excellent Cultures” (Peters
and Waterman 1982, p.97) in cultural approaches and “New Science” Systems Theory (Merry 1995
& Wheatley 1992, p.85) in systems approaches. These two theories are mainly
used in contemporary organizations which will therefore best suit my topic. Case
studies 4.1 Marine
Sergeant Dakota Meyer (p.59) will be used in the weblog portfolio as an
ultimate discussion to uphold the evidences of both theories.
Analysis of Purpose
The purpose of attach a case study at the end is to
demonstrate the analytical framework of global leadership development to group
factors explaining the
·
subsidiary
support for individual applicants for global leadership development
·
perceived
authority of the global leadership development system among internal and
external stakeholders
·
legitimacy
of global leadership development provided by subsidiaries
Challenges
As a specific challenge in forming a weblog portfolio is to
apply difficult digital skills such as creating weblog link which no one has it
or email and password which no one has it so far, designing appropriate layouts
to suit the style of professionalism. Find multiple solutions across different
sources to solve the digital challenges, for an example, how to create a weblog
and how to manage the tools, bars and navigation in the system.
Result
As a conclusion, the main context of this portfolio is to
show leadership conceptual framework which explains the attributes and bodies
which show differences between specific cultures are forecast of organizational
structure and culture, which later becomes a vital aspect of leadership
effectiveness in communication and organization.
