Assignment: Model the Influence of Organizational Behavior in Improving a Business

People, Processes, and Organizational Health

Envision this scenario:

You have earned the corner office of the organization that you have helped guide to present success. Your staff is collaborative; all levels of the organization are functional; and, in general, key aspects of the business are stable. Many of the organizational changes you have recently championed seem to be having a positive effect on morale and operational results.

Knowing that present success may only be an indicator of future success, you recall reading that "the time to change is when things are going well." You are troubled by this thought, as you have learned that when faced with adverse conditions, organizations tend to revert back to the way they used to do things because they know them well and are comfortable with previous efforts and results.

Prepare a comprehensive paper assessing the current state of the organization. Then, analyze the opportunities for change, and develop a plan for leading the organization to its future state. Consider advancing technologies and emerging world markets in your analysis.

You are not alone; you have the resources of the organization to assist you, but all eyes are on you. It is your time to lead. Be bold and creative.

Support your plan with a minimum of five resources. In addition to these specified resources, other appropriate scholarly resources, including older articles, may be included.

Length: 10-12 pages, not including title and reference pages

Your plan should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts presented in the course by providing new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards. Be sure to adhere to Northcentral University's Academic Integrity Policy.
