Discussion:
Review the youtube video interview or read the closed caption "Organizational Culture and change by Amelia Muniz" .
For your first post write a paper of at least 300 words and answer the following questions:
1. When undergoing a process improvement initiative how important is culture, low, medium or high and why?
1. What are the benefits of culture in an improvement initiative and why?
2. Describe the downside of culture in an improvement initiative and why?
You will respond to the posting of the two of your peers with your personal suggestions: What have you learned from their post? What suggestions for improvement for your least effective post? You will have a most favorite and a least favorite.
General directions for all discussion posts:
This original post must contain a minimum of 300 words. Students must demonstrate critical thinking by paraphrasing the material into their own words (direct quotes should be used in a limited manner as this does not display critical thinking). All statements in the post that are not general knowledge should be cited to their source. Be sure to clearly relate the readings to the lesson concepts. Students may further synthesize this research relating to personal experiences. All citations should be in APA format with a reference listing at the bottom of the post in APA format (be sure to include a link to the website of your current event in the reference listing).
Please remember that the original post on the discussion boards is for your researched thought. If you describe an opinion it should be grounded in citation and reference based research. The purpose of the assignment is for you to critically examine issues, using research as your foundation for your ideas. Ideas built from research create credibility with the reader. It also enhances your critical thinking as well as your own enlightenment. Many times we have an opinion that after we research the opinion we find that there is evidence of counter intuitive concepts that lead to new ways of looking at our original idea.
Do remember that it is not good form to use the first person in professional writing.
