Organizational Culture

Any change management plan must take into account the culture of an organization. For instance, some organizations prize the inclusion of their employees in all aspects of operations, while other organizations have a top-down approach to management. Creating a plan without taking this cultural background into context can be problematic for the success of a change initiative. In five-page paper, search for scholarly articles relative to change initiatives that apply to an organization in KSA. Consider the impact on the individuals concerned and the impacts on the organization. Assess the cultural elements that you believe may impact the development of change strategies and implementation of change plans. Synthesize the information and discuss challenges and strategies that should be considered to address (or overcome) these cultural elements which could negatively affect the implementation of a change strategy. Discuss the cultural and power dynamics that impact the organizational change process, the power of informal operational systems and the relationship of organizational culture and change.
