Discussion Post
Before beginning work on this week's discussion post, review the following resources:
a) Doing Discussion Questions Right
b) Expanded Grading Rubric
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) in 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 (Dynamics Themes) this week include:
a) Power
b) Politics
c) Communication
d) Ethics
Other potential topics and subtopics exist in the readings.
Be very specific about the topic you choose (e.g., which communication theories or what it is about power that you are analyzing?). Also, now that you have begun to study several OB themes in the course, begin looking for relationships between themes from past weeks and the current week and considering how current organizational environments (e.g., globalization, technology, and change) interact with OB.
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
