Planning Organizational Assessment Based on Research

Throughout this course, you will prepare assignments on an organization with which you are very familiar. The assignments are designed to prepare you for the Unit VII Final Project in which you will write a culminating report.

This assignment will consist of two parts.

Part I: Identify an organization that you currently work for or may like to work for in the future. Consider the issues or problems that you believe need to be addressed in this organization. You will use this organization throughout the course, so choose a company that you know a lot about or can research. You are encouraged to start gathering your data and research about the organization early in the course to ensure that you have ample time to complete the final project.

Submit a one-page overview of an organization that focuses on the following change areas discussed in the Unit I Lesson.

Below are the change areas and a brief description of each area. You may not use all of the areas depending on the organization and the changes needed.
Organizational history: Taking the time to research where the organization has been will help the consultants to understand where the organization should be in the present and also in the future.
Organizational mission: Any suggested changes should be proposed with the mission in mind to ensure that they support the mission further.
Organization strategy: The entire organization should be considered since the operations of the entire organization need to be addressed in order to keep the strategic plan in place.
Organization structure: The structure will impact how the change process takes place and who is involved.
Organization relationships: The relationship of the organization to the industry, the community, the suppliers, and other stakeholders will be reviewed.
Organizational performance: Organizational performance will be assessed against the best practices of the industry.

Part II: For this portion of the assignment, you will begin to conduct the comprehensive organizational assessment for your chosen organization. Using Table 1.1 (p. 7) in your textbook, prepare a similar table, and submit the organizational assessment for your organization. After completing the table, provide a narrative summary of the results of the assessment and what the next steps should be in resolving the issues/problems found. For this assignment, you only complete the assessment; the discussion of data collection will be coming in later units. Part II should be two pages in length.

Your submission should be a minimum of three pages in length and include at least three scholarly sources. APA Style should be used throughout the paper.

Read the case given and answer the questions:

In the organization’s meeting today, Thamer’s newest topic is rewards and pay plans. He starts: “Marwa showed me the salary figures and records for everyone. I can’t find any pattern or rationale for how people are paid around here. I think we should work this out.”

Kareem sends everyone but Thamer and Nabeel out to find more firewood and looks at Thamer. “No one but the four of us know how everyone is paid around here. What were you trying to do? Start a fight?” Nabeel adds, “We do fine with the system we have. Why did you think we needed to talk about compensation this week?”

Thamer asks tersely, “Would you describe that system for me?”

Kareem starts, “I like a guy, want him to work for us. So, I offer him whatever I made when I was his age. Or what Nabeel made at his age; especially if it’s a technical job, like machine design.” Thamer groans and holds his head.

Nabeel adds, “For the pros, though, we talk to them. Find out what pros are getting at other stores to demonstrate and sell the products. We pay that golf guy SAR 20,000 each time he shows up and swings his club around the golf course.” Thamer groans and holds his stomach.

Kareem counters, “Well, the pros are special cases, right?” Thamer collapses into a chair.

Nabeel asks, “Thamer, you took over setting starting salaries when you got here. What have you been doing?”

Thamer says, in a small voice, “Just offering what you offered the last guy in the same job. I couldn’t figure out any other pattern. That’s why I put compensation on the agenda for this week.”

Kareem and Nabeel groan. They all look up as the door opens and Faris comes in with a load of firewood.
