TOPIC: Technology, Innovation, and Change
PROFESSOR’S GUIDANCE FOR THIS WEEK’S LE:
Organizational development requires that the workforce adheres to new changes. Change management is an essential leadership task that will assist employees within the workforce to be open and ready to embrace new techniques and methods that will contribute to the overall improvement of the company. In today’s society, things are always changing due in large part to technology. As companies strive to keep up and stay ahead of the curve, they are prone to rushing into changes that may be ” en vogue” at the moment.
PROMPT:
The recent Covid-19 crisis has provided a bizarre and fascinating space for thinking, changing, and adapting. Provide one example from your professional life of something that changed and something from your professional life that did NOT change. These can be examples of procedures, practices, approaches, or almost anything! Provide one (minimum) reference/citation for each change and non-change (two total required). Then, in responses to each other (due by Sunday), challenge each other regarding change! For example, was the change due to COVID? Was the change due to culture from shifts in politics and policy? Have fun with this!
Be sure to proofread carefully (Use Grammarly – the premium version! Make sure your writing score is more than 90) and cite your sources (APA 7.0 ed).

When using credible academic/scientific sources for your learning engagement (LE), be sure to include a section at the end of your main LE as “personal analysis” to comment based on what you have learned from your textbooks, classes, and previous academic/professional experiences. As an MBA student, your personal analysis is very important to me. You should be able to reach a personal conclusion by summarizing your knowledge and experience in scientific and professional situations.
