Abstract
This paper takes a look at organizing as one of the key components in the effective management of an organization. It points out that, following the planning process, organizing involves the gathering of many resources, all in the attempt to achieve a company's goals. The paper stresses that without this critical step, the strategic goals set by upper management would be little more than pipe dreams or lofty ideas. Numerous resources must be gathered to achieve these goals, often including money, people, knowledge, and physical and technological assets. The paper focuses on two such resources, monetary and human, as they relate to the United States Air Force. The paper concludes that these two resources are the most important assets a company can possess, and work in conjunction with one another to achieve the goals set forth by upper management.
From the Paper
"Human resources are among the most vital of an organization or project. Financial resources provide the framework and means with which to achieve goals, but human resources actually work toward and accomplish the goals. People, and their skills, are usually the most valuable asset an organization possesses. Employees are ultimately responsible for the success or failure of a company, project, or goal. Properly trained and creative employees can succeed where money alone will fail. Many operations in the United States Air Force require large amounts of manpower, and makes the function of human resource organization all the more important. With the growing complexity of tasks due to technological advances, the right set of people and skills must be chosen in order to achieve a goal efficiently and effectively. The military as a whole has evolved into a highly-specialized labor pool in which individuals will often focus on a single aspect of a project (Bateman & Snell, 2004, p. 245); lending a tremendous amount of expertise in the area for which they are chosen. However, with continuing budget constraints modern times have displayed a need for all members to become much more general in nature; though specialization will continue to exist. Specialties are merged at every opportunity in order to cut down on the size of the forces and the overall costs of maintaining such a force. This has created the need for military members to become more knowledgeable than ever when it comes to jobs outside of their specialty. In the past, the formation of a team would be a relatively simple task of choosing one or more members of a needed specialty in order to accomplish a project. In these more efficient times, members may be chosen more for their creativity and adaptability rather than an innate specialty. In theory this widens the pool of members from which to choose, and can increase the chances for success with the advent of unforeseen circumstances and obstacles."

Abstract
This paper explains that some important issues, which arise in non-profit human resource management, are the inability of many non-profit organizations to pay equitable wages for equitable jobs, not paying even limited benefits and the stress of budgetary fluctuations, which causes a constant environment of downsizing fear. The author points out that the funding base associated with granting is particularly troubling because many granting institutions demand that 80-100% of resources be spent on programs, leaving little if any funding for overhead, which contrary to popular belief exists in much the same manner as it would with any business. The paper reviews the problems of the YMCA the United Way, Head Start and the Goodwill Industries.
From the Paper
"Goodwill Industries, another non-profit in the community service business, is as well known as almost any other non-profit organization. Their goal is workforce training and their answer to the difficulty in recruitment of top rated professionals has been answered by a rather controversial policy. The policy is to pay top rated professionals very large salaries to work for them. This policy is only possible because of the vast amounts of sales that Goodwill makes in its retail outlets. Many argue that the biggest problem with such policies is that it makes the organization very top heavy, where most employees, and even management level employees make minimum wage while regional directors can make in excess of 200,000 plus benefits. One example of just such a situation would seem almost abhorrent to most individuals, as the regional director for Goodwill in Oregon received a compensation package that was almost 800,000 dollars for the year 2003."

"The Influence of Human Resources on Entrepreneurship within Organizations
Introduction
A budding company receives its initial organizational 'shape' from its founder or founders. In the most real sense possible, the creative vision that catalyzes events and individuals, provides the initial entrepreneurial burst that forms the company or organization in question. Any organization, in passing from the conceptual to the actual, moves through an entrepreneurial-managerial transition, in which the momentum that helped form the company must in some part be transferred to organizational realities (Flamholtz, 1986; Roberts, 1987). These realities are manifested in managerial sub-structures, the purposes of which are to ..."

This paper looks at the World Trade Organization, or WTO and debates whether or not the WTO has a positive effect on the world. The author takes the position that one needs a place to take disputes and set regulations for the international economy.
From the Paper
"The World Trade Organization, which was created in 1995, was the biggest reform of international trade since 1948. During the previous years, international commerce had been organized under GATT, which established a multilateral trading system. However, by the 1980s major restructuring was needed. The Uruguay Round brought about that overhaul. It was the largest trade negotiation ever."

From the Paper
"Organizations, both public and private, are constantly changing and evolving. Every department and agency within organizations are also redefining and changing their roles and responsibilities. Human resource management (HRM) is becoming an important aspect of the management strategy for organizations. The human-asset cost is currently a major portion of the expenses that organizations face. The degree of agreement between the values, cultural norms, and attitudes needed to implement any proposed change and the organization staff's existing attitudes, values, philosophy, and operating style also determines the success of that change. Changes in organizations can be triggered or induced by any external or internal variable affecting the organization. HRM is not a static management tool that can be used in isolation with the rest of the organization. Rather, decisions and policies made for the human resource greatly determines the success or failure of an organization. HRM is not a pure science; and, there is no fixed blue print that is extensible to every organization."

Abstract
This paper explains that an authoritarian military style of management of the police officers used in earlier days worked efficiently as the officers were unskilled, lower educated, and sometimes unethical. Police officers today are more educated and technically competent than they were in the past and require a different style of management. The author believes that the role officers can play in their own motivation is to want to improve and show cooperation with the administrators; the rest of the role in motivation still lies with the police administrators. The paper states that the major challenge in the motivation of police officers lies in reducing cynicism and motivating officers to perform better.
Table of Contents
Relationship between the Amount of Supervision and Control
Balance between Control and Motivation
The Case of Lt. Morse and an Accountability System
Officers Role in Creating a Motivating Environment
Does Motivation Only Come From Within?
Role Of Police Administrators in Motivation
Unique Issues within Police Organizations
From the Paper
"As the two of the concerns are indirectly related, it is important for police supervisors to balance the increase in one with the increase in the other. The increasing level of supervision and accountability leaves officer demoralized if motivational measures are not taken up to balance the situation. It is very important that officers are motivated due to the nature of the job. Officers need to be constantly motivated to control crime on the streets. Inefficiencies of officers may trigger a wave of crime in the society. Thus, supervisors must employ various measures to sustain officer morale."

Abstract
This paper explains that the organizing functions of management that impact human resources and knowledge may strongly impact an organization's success. The organizing functions of management in relation to human resources consider business and employee needs, develop personnel organizational charts, incorporate internal and external factors, and establish goals for day-to-day management. It shows how the organizing functions of management in a knowledge management scenario are focused closely on understanding and identifying company and employee needs. It concludes that organizing functions are especially important, as failure in identifying knowledge management issues within a larger business context can be devastating to the business.
From the Paper
"Effective organization of human resources provides and mobilizes a framework for success. Such a framework considers the overall structure of the human resources unit, considers the needs of the business and employees, develops personnel organizational charts, incorporates internal and external factors, and establishes management practices for day-to-day operations. In terms of knowledge management, the organizing functions of management are equally crucial. In the case of knowledge management, organizing functions include effectively identifying and mobilizing intellectual and knowledge-based assets, and are focused on specific and clear goals. Further, this process includes provisions to allow employees to become actively involved in knowledge management, the integration of information technology, and is built on an understanding that knowledge is constantly updated, deleted, and amended."

The writer claims that this is also the most necessary or essential and important field in the working of an organization. The writer discusses the functions and processes of human resources and looks at the roles of human resources leaders within an organization.
From the Paper
"It must be noted that for more than a decade now, HR leaders have been working steadily towards becoming strategic business partners within an organization. One example of this is seen in a private sector survey that was conducted in the year 2003, when CEOs of various important organizations stated their unanimous opinion that an 'investment in people' was only second in importance to having an 'efficient overall strategy' of working for the organization. As a matter of fact, the same survey revealed the fact that HR's contribution to the financial performance of an organization can be linked to the basic performance of the HR, and in a more recent survey of Canadian HR personnel, it was discovered that about 70% of HR's time was spent in transactional activities of the firm, and that about 30% of their time was on average spent on strategy. In the service industry, it was reported that 37% of HR time would be devoted to strategy, whereas in the financial industry, about 33% would be utilized, and in the high tech sector, the HR time used for strategy would be about 30%, and in the remaining sectors, HR time for strategy would be 28%, both in the public as well as in the non-profit sectors."

"Human resource managers design appraisals to primarily get feedback from the employees regarding their achievements in the year, and invite their opinions as to which aspects of their performance need improvement. This is designed to give the employees a chance to consider their own weaknesses and to encourage them to be proactive about their personal development. Also, by seeking feedback from employees about the course their personal development should take within the organization, the human resource managers make the employee feel valued by the company. The appraisals also give the human resource managers a chance to sit down with employees on a one on one basis and take the opportunity to reinforce the overall corporate goals of the organization."

Schoonover's article entitled "HR Competencies for the Year 2000: The Wake-Up Call!", in which Schoonover challenges HR experts to prove the relevance of HR in adding value and in providing new competencies to organizations.
From the Paper
"Also, in an age of greater globalization, HR departments must make sure that employees going abroad are well-trained in the manners and mores of doing business in other areas of the world, as well as ask: "How many women and minorities in your organization are offered such opportunities?" are going aborad in general, as the face of the company of the future. (Leonard, 2003) In short, the future of HR must remain focused on value-maximizing the human factor. However much HR avails itself of technical support, and must conform to organizational bugetary needs, its point of view must not becomes so segmented that it cannot deploy the human elements of the organization to realize an organizational vision. Futhermore, by remaining sensitive to the training and diversity needs of every department, it can still have a critical value-maximizing role within any organization."

Conclusion
From the Paper
"Strategies require more than retaining competent people. They require specific people with specific talents for specific tasks. Concentration strategies are a good example of how HR can affect change. They are an integral part in retaining employees by way if training to keep skills sharp and compensation to give those with skills the proper income for their work. Another strategy that can impact change in a positive direction is the external growth strategy during mergers and acquisitions. HR is a critical facet during a merger as issues of conflict usually arise. HR must train staff in conflict resolution due to the merging cultures. In doing so, morale and production can be impacted if the proper training is conducted. Additionally, rightsizing to cut costs and remain competitive in the market is another strategy whereby HR is important and can positively affect the company in meeting its goals. HR can assess the positions and the job functions to see what positions can merge. Upon doing so, they then can look objectively at the employees who aren't as valued to determine the cuts needed to achieve the desired results."
