Planning Organizational Assessment Based on Research

Throughout this course, you will prepare assignments on an organization with which you are very familiar. The assignments are designed to prepare you for the Unit VII Final Project in which you will write a culminating report.

This assignment will consist of two parts.

Part I: Identify an organization – U.S. Army or something within the DoD/ Military field. Consider the issues or problems that you believe need to be addressed in this organization. You will use this organization throughout the course, so please choose a company that you know a lot about or can research. You are encouraged to start gathering your data and research about the organization early in the course to ensure that you have ample time to complete the final project.

Submit a one-page overview of an organization that focuses on the following change areas discussed in the Unit I Lesson. Below are the change areas and a brief description of each area. You may not use all of the areas depending on the organization and the changes needed.

·        Organizational history: Taking the time to research where the organization has been will help the consultants to understand where the organization should be in the present and also in the future.

·        Organizational mission: Any suggested changes should be proposed with the mission in mind to ensure that they support the mission further.

·        Organization strategy: The entire organization should be considered since the operations of the entire organization need to be addressed in order to keep the strategic plan in place.

·        Organization structure: The structure will impact how the change process takes place and who is involved.

·        Organization relationships: The relationship of the organization to the industry, the community, the suppliers, and other stakeholders will be reviewed.

·        Organizational performance: Organizational performance will be assessed against the best practices of the industry.

Part II: For this portion of the assignment, you will begin to conduct the comprehensive organizational assessment for your chosen organization. Using Table 1.1 (p. 7) in your textbook, prepare a similar table, and submit the organizational assessment for your organization. After completing the table, provide a narrative summary of the results of the assessment and what the next steps should be in resolving the issues/problems found. For this assignment, you only complete the assessment; the discussion of data collection will be coming in later units. Part II should be two pages in length.

Your assignment must be at least three pages in length and include at least two scholarly sources. APA Style should be used throughout the paper.
