Assessment 2: Preparing for change overview
Weeks 1, 2, and 3 covered a number of issues relating to how people react to change and the preparedness of organizations for change. Effective change leaders are aware of the need to carefully prepare for change. This assessment asks you to consider what you would do to prepare for the change in an organizational scenario.
Organizational Scenario: ‘Moving operations’
Choose your current organization, an organization you have worked for, or an organization you are familiar with. Then choose one of the following ‘moving operations’ scenarios:
· The organization is moving operations to the cloud
· The organization is relocating from the central business district (CBD) office in Melbourne to a new office in Melton (45 km away, but accessible by public transport)
To prepare for this assessment task:
3. Consider the implications of one of the ‘moving operations’ scenarios
4. Think about what the selected organization needs to do to prepare for this planned change
5. Successfully complete the activities in weeks 2 and 3.
Your assessment submission should include a cover page.
