Reference no: EM13813551

Change initiatives are said by academics to have a disappointing rate of success. You are asked to give guidance to the chief executive of a large multi-national company as to how to implement a change programme. Critically evaluate two or more models or theories relating to organisational change.

Work should be underpinned by theory, examples and supported by extensive references. Students should use the readings and many web sources provided as well as the material to which reference has been made in the lectures. Your own supported synthesis and interpretation should be offered.

This assessment assesses how well you can do the following (as outlined in the module specification):

• Understand and critically evaluate theories of leadership, motivation and change management and their effective implementation in an international context.

• Understand and critically evaluate theories of managing diversity and their effective implementation in a cross-cultural context.

• Promote a professional and ethical approach to organisations.
