This week's Discussion question has two components.

In your initial posting, please address the following: 

1. How does culture affect organizational change?
   
2. In the chapter "Redesigning the Organizational "Hardware": The Keys to Strategic Design," Nadler identifies the elements of organizational design as structure, processes, and systems. Comment on how these components are currently being used in a change initiative you are involved in, or how they were used in a change initiative you witnessed in the past.

With these thoughts in mind:

Post a brief statement that expresses your thoughts. 

Second Part Please Highlight in RED is:

Post a 2- to 3-paragraph description of the expected behaviors an individual might change because of a long-term relocation to another country. Explain how the choice to assimilate or acculturate might affect the choice of behavior changes. Explain how these decisions present challenges in adapting to another culture.
