Assignment 1: Discussion-Organizational Redesign
An important element of any change management project will, more often than not, include redesigning the organization itself. This might become necessary to accommodate changes that need to be made to the organization. This process, known as organizational redesign, consists of specific elements that will rely on teamwork and coordination among the employees within the organization. This process will not be without challenges, and the dynamics that will be seen during this process will certainly be influenced by employee behavior.
Research information associated with organizational redesign using your textbook, the Argosy University online library resources, and
Internet resources.
Respond to the following:
- Differentiate between formal and informal organizational design elements.
- Analyze and describe the requirements for building coordination and teamwork in an organization.
- Discuss the main challenges posed by organizational redesign.
- Discuss the dynamics of changing the design of an organization in order to influence patterns of behavior.
Give reasons to support your statements. And references
Assignment 2: Case Study-Organizational Redesign (please read all info on this assignment when completing)
Changing an organization's structure is sometimes necessary for success. Change management processes may include top-to-bottom changes in everything an organization does. The organizational redesign process facilitates understanding of how such changes are implemented. The case study "Performance Plus" presented below reinforces that concept.
First, analyze the facts within the case study. Answer the following questions within your analysis of the case study and your understanding of the theories of organizational redesign:
- What have been the main causes of the difficulties being experienced by Performance Plus team members?
- As general manager, what steps should Steve Cook take to ensure that the Performance Plus teams deliver a high-quality product on time?
Secondly, looking particularly at the Strong Bond question, provide a recommendation of how you would suggest that issue be resolved.
Consider the following questions while preparing the answers for the assignment. Apply these concepts to your assignment wherever appropriate.
- Do formal and informal design elements apply?
- Are there any challenges posed by organizational redesign?
- Are there any requirements for building coordination and teamwork taken into consideration?
- Are there any dynamics of changing the design of the organization that impact patterns of behavior?
