Analyze methods for understanding and mapping change in an organization.

CompetencyAnalyze methods for understanding and mapping change in an organization.InstructionsDelta Pacific Case StudyYou now have been tasked with mapping out an organizational culture change Delta Pacific Company (DPC), another role and responsibility as a change leader for the organization. It’s important to have a change plan set before the change actually occurs. This is for a few reasons:Increases the probability of successEnables you to weigh optionsProvides knowledge so you can make an informed decisionAllows for proper identification of the change and steps neededAllows for identification of what might occur during the changeSince you are the change leader, your first step is to map the change using a change management model. You are aware of the extensive change the organization is undertaking with a shift in production to consulting. However, profitability has still declined even with training and resources in place.As the change leader, select one of the change management models and map out the organization’s goal of changing the culture from the more traditional manufacturing environment to one of a contemporary consulting environment.Conduct academic research and create a proposal to the CEO and board in which you complete the following for approval of the change plan:1. Explanation for why the change model being used is most effective for this change.2. Description of the change map to include details for each step.3. Examples of what to expect during the change process.4. Explanation for each of your recommendations in each step of the change model.Remember that this is a proposal. Make sure to format your paper properly for your proposal. A proposal is a persuasive document, so make sure to use proper language and tone. Remember, you are the change leader and you are writing to the CEO. So use a tone in your proposal that is specific to your audience (the CEO).Include your APA-formatted reference page with at least two credible sources.A note about credible sources: Credible sources are reliable, accurate, and trustworthy. These sources are written by authors respected in their fields of study. You want to identify sources where the author of the article is listed if they’ve referenced other information. The sources should be cited so that you can check for the accuracy of, and support, what they have written.

Stressful Life Events and Loneliness

You will formulate a research topic, identify and synthesize relevant academic articles on that topic, and formally present your findings in a brief literature review.

1) First, use the attached document (“Literature Review – Research Topic Selection.docx”) to formulate your research topic. The document provides a list of variables from which you may choose. You will select two different variables. One will be your independent variable (IV), and the other will be your dependent variable (DV). For your literature review, you will research the effect the independent variable on the dependent variable (IV –> DV). Note that some of the variables in the list (marked with an *) may only be used as independent variables. Your research topic will take this form: “What is the effect of [independent variable] on [dependent variable].” ( Stressful Life Events) ( Loneliness) (am thinking how people manifest stress and tent to isolate because they are overwhelmed, just an idea) ( Beh Sci class)

2) Next, use an academic database to locate at least five peer-reviewed journal articles on your selected topic. I recommend using the PsycINFO database because it should include articles related to the topics on this list and because you have experience using the database. If you cannot find articles that address your exact topic, you can use articles that address highly related topics. For example, suppose someone were researching the effect of workload on grade point average (GPA). A highly related topic might be the effect of course load on GRE (graduate school test) scores. It would be appropriate for this person to incorporate such a article into his or her literature review.

3) Finally, write a brief literature review in which you address your research topic drawing from the articles you selected. Your paper should take the form of a formal APA manuscript with a title page, body, and references. (An abstract is not required.) The paper must following proper APA 6th edition guidelines . The body must have three main sections: introduction, literature review, and discussion (set apart by headings).

The introduction must be at least one-half page in length. It must define your key terms in light of literature (do not use dictionary definitions), establish the importance of the dependent variable (why it matters), and explicitly state the purpose of the literature review (in terms of the research topic).
Your literature review section must be at least two pages in length. It must present the literature in a cohesive and integrated manner, and it may incorporate both theory and empirical findings. All factual statements must include appropriate in-text citations with corresponding references.
Your discussion section must be at least one-half page in length. It must summarize your key findings (what you learned from the literature review), provide at least one specific implication for practice (what we should do with the information you collected), discuss at least one specific limitation of the studies reviewed, and provide at least one specific suggestion for future research.
