ASSIGNMENT 2

For this unit, read about what you will be doing for the final presentation. You will have a milestone due in Unit 2.  That milestone will be to complete an Annotated Bibliography for the research you conduct on this project. You will need a total of eight (8) scholarly sources for your presentation. If you have questions about your project selection, please check with your instructor.

For a refresher on what an Annotated Bibliography is, please check your resources in the library. Or you may visit the OWL at Purdue at: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/614/03/

In this course, you will be making an oral presentation of the final project that you will complete during the six weeks of the course. You will need to conduct library research and your final paper must have a minimum of 8 scholarly resources (peer-reviewed journal articles) in addition to the text book.

The final oral presentation will be made using PowerPoint or a similar software application. You may use the presenting capabilities of PowerPoint to record your presentation or you may use another application such as Screencast-o-matic, or Adobe Captivate, or iMovie. Note that presentations that do not have the oral component will automatically receive a D. In order to fully develop your topic, your presentation will comprise 12-15 slides.

Please ensure that you follow standard APA formatting. Your presentation must have a cover page and a reference page. Be sure your presentation is organized, clear, and grammatically correct.

You will submit your Unit #6 Final Project Activity to the grade book.

In your final project, you will research a topic of your choice or analyze an organization (perform a case study) and apply the principles of change to that topic.

Potential topics

Choice #1:

Perform a case study – select a real world organization that is facing organizational challenges. Research those challenges, describe those challenges, and diagnose them by presenting one or more relevant, integrated OD interventions that could help the organization successfully adapt to those challenges using either internal consultants, external consultants, or both internal and external consultants.

Choice # 2

Alternatively, you may research an organizational development trend and explain how that change will impact organizations. Ensure that you incorporate the concepts that you have learned from the textbook and your other readings in a thorough manner.

If you have any questions about the topic, please consult with your instructor.

• Trends in Organizational Development
• Applying Organizational Development to Non-Profit organizations
• Training and Development in Organizational Development
