Assignment Description
Reflect back on the Unit 3 Discussion Board assignment, and consider the policies you identified and researched. Policies are most effective when the audience they apply to are made aware of them. Employees should understand the purpose of the policy and how it applies to their job. Policies also need to be supported by executive leadership to be effective. One of the methods used to reinforce these strategies is to train employees on the policies that apply to them.
