Part 1

In your blog, you should address the following two sections:

(1) Section 1: list the key ideas you have extracted from the prescribed e-learning activity.

(2) Section 2: apply those ideas to your own experience, to an organisation you know and to the topic(s) of this subject.

Visit the following URLs, and use 'Questions to consider' to guide your thinking. Remember you can select the number of activities to use in your blog (i.e., you can either focus on one activity or incorporate the ideas from several activities in one blog).

Activity 1: Ford and Taylorism

Questions to consider:

1. Would workers in Australia, America or Europe accept the Taylorism in this form today?

2. Consider the design of scripts for use in Call Centres, can you see Taylorism in that? Explain.

3. This ‘clip' is showing history from 100 years ago. Some would say that ‘the world has moved on' and these ideas are out of date. However, could there be parts of the world today for which these ideas might be just what they need? Explain.

Part 2

'The myth of national culture' - Counter argument to Hofstede's work by Professor Brendan McSweeney at Royal Holloway, University of London

URL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_l84Dj2eXY

Questions to consider:

1. Do you agree with Professor McSweeney's view on national cultures? Why or why not? After viewing the survey result done by Hofstede on your home country, who do you think offers a more compelling argument on national cultures? Can a single culture be used to determine the actions of entire population?
