An Organization where change is needed

Select an organization in which you feel change is needed. The organization may be a current or previous employer, a school organization, military organization, or other group you may be a part of. Be sure you have adequate knowledge of the organization to complete the project.

Throughout the course you will be studying Kotter’s 8 Steps for change from Kotter and Cohen’s The Heart of Change. Each week you will build and expand on your final project for the course; a plan to implement change successfully. Your first goal is to identify the organization and change that is needed. Summarize the context of the organization, the change that is needed, why the change is needed, and why you feel the organization/situation is a good candidate for your final project.

Be sure to include at least three scholarly references to support your assertions written in your own words. Do not copy word for word from the course text or any other sources. Your submission this week is Part 1 of the final project.

The requirements below must be met for your paper to be accepted and graded:

  • Write between 1,000 – 1,250 words (approximately 4 – 6 pages) using Microsoft Word in APA style.
  • Use font size 12 and 1” margins.

  • At least 80% of your paper must be original content/writing.
