The Case Study in Change Research Paper will adhere to the following outline (develop headings per current APA):
- Title Page
- Abstract
- Introduction
- Section 1: Best Practices in Organizational Change – Using the concepts from the first Discussion, discuss best practices for organizational change, including change models, supported from the literature. How is the model used across organizations? What are some best practices of the model in industry? Compare and contrast its use with evidence from the literature.
- Section 2: Case Studies in Organizational Change – Using the practices highlighted in Section 1, discuss the cases by considering the following questions: What makes the case a success (or failure) through the lens of best practices taken from Section 1? How does the literature support the case study, or not support the case study? What are the course texts’ perspectives? How does the wisdom from Scripture speak to these cases?
