Time Warner

Paper Summary:

This paper discusses Time Warner's human resource management activities and how they relate to the general goal of the company. The paper discusses the ways that diversity is a particular challenge facing Time Warner and how it manages this challenge. The paper also provides recommendations to improve the human resource management function in the organization.

From the Paper:

"Further recommendations to improve the human resource management function in this organization is to extend soliciting employee input beyond that of online based surveys and extending this solicitation to focus groups, and other sources of information generation. This will not simply provide research for the various division of Time Warner, but create a greater sense of company cohesion and loyalty. A sense of mutual investment is the spirit of Time Warner. Such a cohesive spirit is often difficult to achieve in an internationally based company with so many outposts, and diverse corporate divisions and cultures under the management's umbrella. Although inevitably there will be differences between different divisions and different types of employees, creating a sense of a company with a few common values, such as diversity, integrity, youth, and a commitment to free discourse can infuse a common spirit into Time Warner that improves company functioning, and reinforces company productivity, vision and mission."
