Discussion Post: Organization Behavior
From the assigned readings, select one topic for which you will lead the discussion in the forum this week. Reserve your selected topic by posting your response (reservation post) to the Discussion Area, identifying your topic in the subject line. Research your topic and start a scholarly conversation as you respond with your initial or primary post to your own reservation post.
Some of the main topics (Drivers Themes) this week include:
1) Change
2) Groups and teams
3) Organizational culture
4) Organizational systems
Other potential topics and subtopics exist in the readings.
As the beginning of a scholarly conversation, your initial post should be:
1) Succinct-no more than 500 words.
2) Provocative-use concepts and combinations of concepts from the readings to propose relationships, causes, and/or consequences that inspire others to engage (inquire and learn). In other words, take a scholarly stand.
3) Supported-scholarly conversations are more than opinions. Ideas, statements, and conclusions are supported by clear research and citations from course materials as well as other credible, peer-reviewed resources.
The response must include a reference list. Using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, double-space, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
