Organizational Diagnosis Applied Project

For this assignment, each student will identify an organization. Preferably this is an organization that the student has first hand experience working at and which is either undergoing a crisis (outlining a need for change) or pursuing an active change.

Students will then complete the Organizational Diagnosis Questionnaire, gather information (via secondary means as well as interviews with 3-5 different employees), and choose some aspects of the organization to study based upon your initial findings. Throughout this diagnostic and data collection process you will apply appropriate theories and concepts you learned in class to the chosen organization.

There are three deliverables associated with this project.
