Analyzing the Need for Change in an Organization

We have learned that organizational change is a process rather than an event. It often starts with knowing what to change, continues through how to change, and then concludes with when to change. Using these steps as a foundation, present a three-to-five-page paper that addresses the following:

• Research organizations in KSA that, in the past three years, havecompleted a major change to their organization (e.g., merged with oracquired another firm, expanded operations, significantly reduced staff,etc.).
• Provide a brief summary of the organization and the reasons for the recent change.
• Present the steps or process the organization followed, from theinitiation of the change process to the implementation of the change.Which of the several frameworks from the textbook did they use or do youthink they used to analyze organizational dynamics?
• Discuss the stakeholders who were included in the process and indicate what their roles were.
• Finally, discuss the key processes/strategies which weresuccessful, the key processes/strategies which were not successful, andadvice or suggestions you would offer (based on what you have learnedthus far in this course) which may result in a more successful changeinitiative in the future. Which of the several frameworks from thetextbook would you suggest they use to analyze organizational dynamics?

Your well-written paper should meet the following requirements:

• Be three-to-five pages in length, which does not include the titlepage and reference pages, which are never a part of the content minimumrequirements.
• Use APA style guidelines.
• Support your submission with course material concepts, principles, and theories from the textbook and at least three scholarly, peer-reviewed journal articles.
