Organizational Theory is built on multiple disciplines or "anchors" (Systemic Research, Multidisciplinary, Contingency, Multiple Levels of Analysis). Everyday events, either local or global can have an impact on these anchors. Understanding the potential impact of an event/events allows an individual/organization to respond pro-actively enabling them to be more prepared and ready to respond successfully.

-Identify and describe factors you believe are influencing the situation.
-Describe the potential impact this event/events may have on individuals, organizations, or both, and base your assessment of the impacts in OB concepts that you have identified
