Organizational change is a process that can be complex. Change efforts are not easily carried out but can be successful through the use of various resources and tools. As explored within the Interactive Lecture, change often starts with knowing what to change, continues through how to change, and then concludes with when to change.

It is important to remember that the same change processes that guide organizations can also be used in one’s personal life.

For this Critical Thinking Assignment, address the components below:

1. Think about a major change that you experienced within the past five years. Explain details about this change, specifically focusing on the reason for the change and the importance of the change in your life.

I’m working on a business writing question and need an explanation to help me understand better.

What is business process re-engineering and when do companies inform their employees about their plans of re-engineering? 

I’m working on a business discussion question and need a sample draft to help me learn.

The questions:

What are your options, and what are the advantages and disadvantages of each option for you and your employer?

What would you do in this situation?

the case:

You are a salesperson for Visions Medical Equipment, a distributor of high-end CT

scan, MRI, ultrasound, X-ray, and mammography equipment. Lately, business has not

been good and you have lost a number of customers to your largest competitor. Your

boss has been on you about it and the declining sales have dramatically affected your

commission checks. You have curtailed your spending, but your finances are starting

to get really tight. You are barely able to make the minimum payments on your credit

card bills and you are afraid that if your commission checks don’t start to rebound, you

won’t be able to make your car and house payments. You don’t understand the loss of

business; you are very good at your job and are selling the top-rated products in the

industry. Lately, you have begun to suspect that your competitor’s salesperson is giving

kickbacks to the hospital buyers. Recently, a buyer for your largest customer hinted that

he could help you secure a large order if there were “something in it” for him. If you

land the order you will earn a very large commission. You have never done anything

like this before, but you do have an expense account where you could bury the payoff

and there would be little risk of getting caught. You are afraid that if you don’t do it,

your company will lose the sale and you will lose the commission.
