Unit:   Fundamentals

Due Date:  Fri,11/16/18

Deliverable Length:  1 paragraph

Primary Task 500–800 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments.

As director of change management for Heavy WorX, this is your first role as a member of an executive team and as a leader who is tasked to bring needed change to an organization. Your peers welcome you to the team but express apprehension with regard to new initiatives or programs, citing that the company has already seen its share of changes and with little positive outcome. Despite the impending challenge, you are excited about your new position because you have the opportunity to be a critical part of the company’s future.

Using  credible resources, conduct in-depth research to gain a high-level understanding of the principles, methods, and tools that are used in organizational development (OD) and to understand the steps, processes, or planned change models that are used by OD practitioners.

To inform your peers about your role and how you will successfully initiate any large-scale changes, discuss the following:

• What     are your roles and responsibilities during a planned change     initiative as both a leader and OD practitioner within Heavy WorX?
• What     are the disadvantages and advantages of leading and managing change as an     internal OD practitioner as opposed to an external OD consultant?
• Of     all the typical ethical dilemmas that may surface for an OD practitioner,     which do you think is the most challenging, and how would you address it?

Type: Individual Project  (#2)

Due Date:  Wed,11/19/18

Deliverable Length:  10–12 PowerPoint slides with 200–250 words of speaker notes per slide

Assignment Description 

One of the most difficult tasks that leaders can face is initiating organizational change. As a leader, you need to be sensitive to the ever-changing internal climate and external environment. For example, changes in the market, products, and competition may all be factors that lead to a need for change. Applying organizational development (OD) techniques to management problems is an essential skill because the primary task of leadership is to manage change; however, before a change can be implemented, the organization must anticipate the need.

To date, the executive team has been reactive to the situations affecting their department and is unfamiliar with a systems approach to OD. Based on what you already know about the climate and external factors affecting Heavy WorX, what conditions or organizational needs exist that may provide the impetus for a large-scale organizational development or planned change program?

• Develop a PowerPoint     presentation to illustrate to the executive leadership team some potential     problems at Heavy WorX that could be changed using OD principles.
• Define and describe what it     means to use a systems-based approach to change, such as social-technical     systems theory, and discuss the benefits of such an approach.
• What OD steps or planned change     models would you follow at Heavy WorX?
• How will you modify these steps     or phases to tailor them to the specific needs of Heavy WorX?

PHASE 2 DB (#3)

Assignment Description 

500–800 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. Be substantive and clear, and use examples to reinforce your ideas.

Your earlier presentation to the executive leadership team at Heavy WorX has initiated interest in a system approach for increasing the effectiveness, efficiency, and morale of the organization.

Based on your readings, research, and experience, discuss the following:

• What resistance to change might     occur with individuals, groups, and organization as a whole?
