Question 1 (Chapter 7): Creating and Managing Organizational Culture

Describe a recent situation where management has altered organizational culture to successfully enhance organizational effectiveness. Look for such illustrative examples in practitioner-oriented academic journals (e.g., HBR, California Management Review, Sloan Management Review, etc.), in the popular press (e.g., Fortune, BusinessWeek, Forbes, Inc., etc.), or in reputed news publications.

Ensure that you use the theory in the text to guide your analysis and shape the content of your response.

Question 2 (Chapter 8): Organizational Design and Strategy in a Changing Global Environment

Identify an organization that recently implemented a corporate-level strategy to expand its value-creation activities beyond its current core domain (The “expansion” could be achieved through related diversification or unrelated diversification). Then, discuss how the organization’s structure and culture have/might be changed as the organization enters the new domain(s).

If you deem it appropriate, you may select the organization that you are researching for your “Organizational Analysis Project.” However, this must be your own responsibility, not a team effort!

Question 3 (Chapter 9): Organizational Design, Competencies, and Technology

Select an organization, analyze the technology it uses, and come up with new ways of making the system more efficient. Please use the theory in the chapter to guide your analysis and shape the content of your post.

If you deem it appropriate, you may select the organization that you are researching for your “Organizational Analysis Project.” However, this must be your own responsibility, not a team effort!

NOTES:

Be sure to number your response and all sub-parts to stay organized and ensure you do not miss answering any part.

Each question 1 to 3 answer should be of a minimum length of 200 words (as always it likely will need more than the minimum to present the best answer possible and to show your effort regarding your research). In addition, present one source of unique research per question at the minimum (more is always welcome!). Recall doing the minimum does not guarantee full credit.

Create a Voice-Over PowerPoint presentation. You have been given 15-20 minutes. Plan on 1 slide for every 1-2 minutes of speaking time (10-15 slides).
Include a title and reference slide (the number of slides above does not include title and reference slides)
Include an introduction and conclusion slide
Include appropriate citations on your slides
Utilize the notes function to outline your talking points and provide additional facts that you will use for your presentation.
Include a minimum of 4-5 scholarly references to support your presentation. References should be 5 years old or newer.
In general, PowerPoint presentations should have a limited number of bullet points on each slide to convey the main point of the slide. They should include images but they should be professional, the source cited and limited in number. It is usually helpful to start with the notes section for what you want to say instead of the slides. Once the notes section is completed, pull out your main points for the slides.
Do not do the voice over I will finish that portion of the project.

Unit VII Article Critique
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2019, a new strain of the coronavirus disease was discovered. Also
known as COVID-19, this strain of the virus had previously not been identified in humans. A worldwide pandemic ensued as
the virus quickly spread across the globe, impacting countless lives, including many individuals in the United States.
In an effort to contain the virus, numerous countries’ leaders encouraged social distancing, which is an infection control
strategy aimed to help lessen the spread of a contagious disease. This directive was given by leaders in the United States
as well. Two schools of thought emerged. In fact, many people were skeptical about the authenticity of this pandemic due to
perplexing and often conflicting messages that were received across social media and news outlets. Therefore, numerous
Americans assumed business as usual and maintained their daily living and social rituals. On the other hand, scores of
others quickly retreated to their homes, embracing the warning provided by some of the nation’s top infectious disease
experts.
This assignment provides you with an opportunity to analyze a real-world, peer-reviewed, psychology journal article that
contains research examining the social psychology aspects of motivation and emotion. You will then demonstrate your
understanding of the article by relating the research and conclusions contained therein to current events.
Begin by visiting the CSU Online Library to locate and choose a journal article in which motivation and emotion are viewed
under the lens of social psychology. The article must be peer-reviewed and should be no older than 7 years.
NOTE: You are not required to locate an article about COVID-19; instead, you must find a peer-reviewed journal article
concerning research that specifically examines motivation and emotion. You will then be critiquing the article and framing
the research and conclusions presented in the article in the context of how they can be applied to behavior and social
psychology during such an event as the COVID-19 pandemic.
A good place to start your search is the PsycARTICLES database or the Academic Search Ultimate database. You can
access these databases from the Databases box on the library homepage.
For assistance in locating your article, you may find the following tutorial Howto Find Journal Articles helpful. Additionally,
you may find this tutorial Howto Search in PsycARTICLES useful.
Once you have chosen your article about motivation, emotion, and social psychology, you will write an article critique that
addresses the following elements.
Explain the research methodology that was used in the study.
Discuss social factors that influence people or groups to conform to the actions of others.
Indicate how behaviors and motivation are impacted by the presence of others. (How does this apply to COVID-19?)
Indicate the structures of the brain that are involved in emotion and motivation. (How could a person’s emotions related to
fear drive their behaviors during this pandemic?)
Examine the article’s generalizability to various areas of psychology. Why would some people choose to follow the orders to avoid social contact and others allow desire for human
interaction to be their driving force?
In addition, your article critique should clearly identify the article’s premise and present an insightful and thorough analysis
with strong arguments and evidence. You should present your own informed and substantiated opinion on the article’s
content and its relation to social psychology during the COVID-19 pandemic. You should use the textbook as your second
source to support your analysis and to supplement any information that is not contained in the journal article.
Your article critique must be a minimum of three pages in length, not including the title and reference pages. All sources
used must be properly cited. Your article critique, including all references, must be formatted in APA style.
You may view the following CSU Writing Center tutorial Article Critiques for assistance in writing an article critique.

Connect to the dataset Worldometer. Create any three data visualizations using the eight standard data visualizations that were covered in class the previous week. Feel free to add any additional columns/datasets to your initial dataset Worldometer, if desired. Submit a .tbwx file along with a short Word document. In your Word document, explain briefly what story you are trying to tell and why you selected the data visualization that you did to tell your story.

Consider adding this completed assignment to your ePortfolio.
Select an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system for your fictional department/institution. You will create a brochure to pass out to your employees informing them about the system. For this assignment:
Define what an ERP system is, and why it is important for your organization
Detail why you selected this ERP and not another option
Address the concerns associated with why ERP systems often fail
Determine how you intend to remedy the concerns in your organization
Infer how you will use this ERP now and in the future
Make sure the main points of your brochure are clear and supported. Transitions are clear and logical, the organization is well planned, and the language used is appropriate. For example, highlight and use key words and phrases to persuade your audience that the ERP system is the right one for the organization.
Remember that this will be incorporated into your course final project.
Be creative with your brochure. This is not a paper or essay. Feel free to include images, graphs, charts, or any other design element of your choosing. You can use software of your choice to create the brochure. For example, you can complete the brochure as an infographic, or any other visual that works for the content of this assignment. A few examples of free software that can help you out are Adobe Spark, Canva, Flipbuilder, and Lucidpress. You do not have to use any of these sites, rather they are meant to provide you with options for creating your brochure.

Students have to expose their investment case about the InterContinental Hotels Group, supported in their
valuation analysis. The investment recommendation can be to BUY (if valuation higher than
market price) or to SELL (if valuation lower than market price) the IHG company. The
consistency and quality of the investment case and the supporting valuation exercise, both
properly explained, are the topics to be evaluated. The investment report is self-contained, i.e.
there are no additional elements to be evaluated.

The report should deliver:

1) a discounted cash flow (DCF) valuation of the stock (common equity) in the company by

identifying the key assumptions for the DCF analysis,

presenting relevant cash flow tables and applied valuation formulas, and

estimating how sensitive the value estimates are to changes in the key
assumptions,

2) a relative valuation of the stock (common equity) in the company by
• preparing a list of comparable (peer) companies, using criteria that are justified to
be appropriate,
• choosing a multiple that will be used in comparing companies across the peer
group,
• evaluating the company against its peers using the chosen multiple,

3) a final value estimate and investment recommendation by
• considering the values obtained from discounted cash flow and relative valuation
models and reconciling potential differences between the two, and
• making a final investment recommendation on whether to buy or sell the stock of
the company.
