Next, write a reflection on your experience receiving feedback from the online tutor. FIRST, identify whether you met with a local Ivy Tech writing tutor or a writing tutor at brainfuse.com. Then, write a brief paragraph summarizing the session. After that, answer as many of the following questions as appropriate: What worked well? What could have worked better? Which specific writing issues did you ask for help with? Why did you pick those specific issues? Did the tutor address the specific concerns you asked about? Was the feedback helpful? Did the tutor provide any helpful feedback aside from the issues that concerned you? Overall, what did you learn? How do you intend to improve your final draft based on this session (provide specific examples of changes you will make based on your tutor’s advice)? Finally, briefly indicate 1) whether you have used a writing tutor previously and 2) whether and how you would do so again. Your reflection should be at least 150 words in total. Save your reflection in Microsoft Word. Then, on this assignment page, submit your written reflection AND the confirmation of your visit you collected (Don’t forget to revise your final draft incorporating the writing tutor feedback you received for submission at the end of Module 5! However, your revised draft is not due yet).

COMMUNICATING CHANGE
COMMUNITICATING CHANGE Discussion
Instructions I NEED THIS DISCUSSION POST ANSWERED
THE POST BELOW IS A DISCUSSION POST WITH THE TOPIC OF THE WEEK. I WILL ATTACH THIS WEEK’S LESSON, LINKS, DOCUMENTS, SCREEN SHOTS. PLEASE REFERENCE THE BOOK, MOSTLY.
THIS WEEKS POST TO ANSWER:
Communicating change before and after implementation can be challenging for organizations and, in some cases, more complex than implementing the change itself (Palmer et al., 2022). The primary challenge centers around the level of involvement employees have prior, during, and after a change(s) has taken place in an organization. There is a difference between disgruntled staff who are disengaged and actively disengaged. Therefore, leaders must address employee concerns, and allow for employee engagement throughout the change process. Answer the following questions in your initial discussion post:
- How comfortable are you with accepting unanticipated organizational changes?
- How might leaders support employees in adopting new behaviors aligned with organizational change efforts?
- Share an example where embracing a growth mindset helped you adapt to an organizational change.
