Discussion Post: Management
You've explored several topics including innovation, diversity, human resources, and several elements of change. Innovation and diversity both require change. Change, however, isn't an easy area to manage for yourself, the organization as a whole, or for each employee individually. It takes skill and planning to successfully navigate the change process.
Research the company you have chosen for your final project, finding something in recent news (less than 8 weeks old) that pertains to a significant change effort that has happened recently, is currently happening, or if you can't find a change effort under way, then choose something currently going on that really needs to change. Briefly explain the change itself, then explain what the company did (is doing, or should do) to be successful in the change process, why the change was necessary, and what roadblocks or resistance they met (or would likely meet). Did they handle the change process successfully? What would you have done differently if you were leading their change effort?
