SECTION I Concern Wealth Management group is a big firm with hundreds of employees who come from various ethnic backgrounds. If hired by the firm’s Director of Training and Development to carry out a training need assessment, I would start by first identifying the concern or the problem at hand. My procedure of discovering training needs would begin with isolating the concern that is easily noted by the firm’s manager. The Wealth Management Group had a major concern, which was mainly brought about by the diverse labour force. The firm consisted of employees from different ethnic backgrounds; thus, a majority of the foreign workers felt that the firm’s leaders were racists and did not like working with foreigners. Also, employees rarely socialized with one another. The relationship between workers was, therefore, poor. Another major concern was the poor firm security.

Dianelys Valladares Indeed the growth of organizations implies an increase in the amounts of unwanted data. The presence of large amounts of irrelevant data in an organization can pose significant challenges. I would add that the main challenge with large amounts of unnecessary data is the limitation of storage space and associated costs. Therefore the need for resizing the information footprint is a positive step towards ensuring effective and efficient operations. I concur with you that resizing the information footprint requires data governance techniques such as data cleansing and de-duplication. Organizations in different ways reap huge benefits when they resize their information footprint. From your response, I gather that organizations should resize their information footprint to have an accurate size that offers quality and efficacy for the organization.
