Final project part 2, 30% of your course grade Based on your last paper, create a change-management plan. Put yourself in the position of a consultant making recommendations to the CEO of the organization. Present your recommendations in a PowerPoint presentation of 10-15 slides. State whether the organization is prepared with its current culture to meet the needs and challenges of the future. Defend your argument. Your presentation should include the following (at a minimum): • an evaluation of the current situation and analysis of whether the current culture is sufficient to meet the needs of the future, or if the culture needs to change; include the ramifications of doing nothing (keeping the culture the way it is) • recommendations for change, with specific strategies that need to be adopted by the leadership, including for communication of the changes and responses to resistance to change • justification and support for the recommended changes, based on both your own observations and the literature (at least three sources) |
