Hi, I am Deepti from Delhi. Presently, I am in Ranchi for my MBA exam. If you need details about these topics, I can send them to you after July 2nd. Have you completed your MBA in HR? Have you also prepared a project report? Can you help me in preparing my project? Could you please send me the soft copy of your project because I have to submit the project next semester?

Hi Deepti,

You are planning to do an organizational study project or HR project. My summer project was an organizational study. Please tell me which one you need so that I can send it to you.

Hi Gouri,

I was a Lecturer in a B-School and am presently working as a Consultant in OD. Correlation is used to find the relationship between two variables. It explains how the X variable is related in proportion to the Y variable. On the other hand, regression deals with the cause-and-effect relationship between variables, which correlation does not.

For example, job satisfaction is related to work motivation. Correlation suggests that if you are satisfied with the job, you will also be motivated, or vice versa. The correlation coefficient will indicate whether there is a negative or positive correlation.

However, if we state that job satisfaction contributes 56% of the impact on work motivation, it is an example of regression. In regression, we describe the cause-effect relationship. I hope you understand the connection between the two.

Hi Friends,

I'm new to the forum. I'm working as an HR Executive in an IT firm. The appraisal activity in my organization has started, which makes me want to clarify the semi-appraisal method. My thinking is, if appraisals are taking place once every 6 months, i.e., semi-annually, then why should the CTC be termed as CTC PA in the revised CTC? It is certain that a particular amount of CTC will be for the next 6 months, and then in the next appraisal, another figure of CTC will come into the picture. Though I'm aware that appraisals need not necessarily result in a salary hike, as there could be no changes depending on a case-to-case basis. Can anyone tell me the logic behind it?
