Delta Pacific Case Study

You now have been tasked with mapping out an organizational culture change Delta Pacific Company (DPC), another role and responsibility as a change leader for the organization. It's important to have a change plan set before the change actually occurs. This is for a few reasons:

• Increases the probability of success
• Enables you to weigh options
• Provides knowledge so you can make an informed decision
• Allows for proper identification of the change and steps needed
• Allows for identification of what might occur during the change

Since you are the change leader, your first step is to map the change using a change management model. You are aware of the extensive change the organization is undertaking with a shift in production to consulting. However, profitability has still declined even with training and resources in place.

As the change leader, select one of the change management models and map out the organization's goal of changing the culture from the more traditional manufacturing environment to one of a contemporary consulting environment.

Conduct academic research and create a proposal to the CEO and board in which you complete the following for approval of the change plan:

• Explanation for why the change model being used is most effective for this change.
• Description of the change map to include details for each step.
• Examples of what to expect during the change process.
• Explanation for each of your recommendations in each step of the change model.
• Remember that this is a proposal. Make sure to format your paper properly for your proposal. A proposal is a persuasive document, so make sure to use proper language and tone. Remember, you are the change leader and you are writing to the CEO. So use a tone in your proposal that is specific to your audience (the CEO).
