Businesses go through minor changes all the time. Some may be considered bigger than others, but the change can still affect employees and the organizations mission. When change happens, leaders need to decide how this change will affect their organizations missions.

Consider a business youve worked with, or have had experience with, in the past. Think about a change that happened, such as a new employee, new system, or new offerings, and respond to the following below in a minimum of 175 words:

• What was the change the organization experienced? How did it affect the day-to-day business?
• As an employee or customer, how did you hear or experience the change? Do you feel this was the best way to find out? Why?
• What could the organizations leaders have controlled differently when communicating the change? Why would this have been important?

Successful implementation of organizational strategies, initiatives, and projects requires general managers to monitor progress and adjust as needed. Before the project starts, as a manager, you are required to make decisions about how you will monitor and control the project and how you will make decisions when issues and opportunities arise during project implementation. This summative assessment will challenge you to think about project tracking, measures, data, and interventions.

To prepare for this assessment, review the Project Charter you created in Week 2, specifically the objectives you created to support your overall project goals for the merger of Dollar Tree and Family Dollar.

Design a project implementation and control plan for the structural and cultural integration of Dollar Tree and Family Dollar by completing the worksheet.

In your textbook, in Chapter 2, Figure 2-1, page 42, provides an overview of the performance management process and its associated components. There are many critical factors that contribute to the successful implementation of a performance management system. Failure to understand these factors can result in issues for organizations, leaders, and employees.

Consider the scenario below and explain how each aspect of the performance management process, as noted in figure 2-1, can be altered/addressed to ensure employees success.

Scenario

When Amal was hired on for her role as an Administrative Assistant to the Chief Executive Officer, she was thrilled about the opportunity to work for Organization ABC. Unfortunately, the information provided in her job description was limited. After a month on the job, despite receiving two days of training from the person Amal replaced, Amals supervisor noticed that her performance was inadequate. Amals current supervisor knows that she is a phenomenal worker, based upon past employer references.

Response Items to Address

To ensure Amals success, and the success of future employees, what aspects of the performance management process need revision? Also, how can future performance management aspects be successfully addressed?

Hint

When thinking of future performance management components, focus on performance execution, performance assessment, and performance review. When thinking about Amals experience in the scenario, think about prerequisites and performance planning.
