Part 2 should include a Six Box Organizational Model analysis. Each student will submit a written paper documenting their analysis of the selected organization from each of the six boxes by first describing the causes (using data or examples) and what can be done (using relevant theories and concepts) to enhance organizational performance. Each of the six boxes must include two theories, concepts, or practices from the textbook. The requirements for the paper are as follows:
As students analyze and evaluate the outcomes, processes, and polices of the six boxes, care should be taken to explain what went well and represented best practices and devote attention to areas needing improvement and lessons learned. An advanced paper will present strategies for improvement and/or enhancement of success. Assure these strategies are supported with critical analytical reasoning.
The final paper should be written in APA style and be between 8 – 10 double-spaced pages in length including the appendix. A one-page executive summary and a table of contents should be included. A minimum of four scholarly resources must be used. Theories, concepts, or practices must be cited and identified in bold or italics. The paper should make use of supplemental materials/visuals such as graphs, process flow diagrams, organizational charts, and any survey results to compliment the narrative analysis.
All applicants go through a series of tests that check their level of English and knowledge of formatting styles. The applicant is also required to present a sample of writing to the Evaluation Department. If you wish to find out more about the procedure, check out the whole process.
