Walden individual projects 3

This week, we are focusing on social change in our discussions. You will often be asked to think about social change during your time at Walden, and hopefully, you will pursue social change in your professional life as well.

Let’s begin by looking at how social change is defined within Walden’s 2020-21 catalog:

“Walden University defines positive social change as a deliberate process of creating and applying ideas, strategies, and actions to promote the worth, dignity, and development of individuals, communities, organizations, institutions, cultures, and societies. Positive social change results in the improvement of human and social conditions.”

In at least one paragraph, complete the questions/tasks below. Be as specific as possible:

What is your definition of social change? This answer should come from you, so please do not look up any definitions. This is about your thoughts.
How does social change happen in your life? Think about different aspects of your life, including personal, professional, and educational.
Quote an idea or passage from Walden’s definition.
Explain how the quote connects with your own ideas about social change.
Weekly Discussion Challenge: 
Look at Part A. In a one sentence summary, explain the main idea of Walden’s social change definition in your own words. Underline this sentence in your posting.

In Part A of this discussion, you are thinking about your definition and ideas about social change. In John Flintoff’s TED Talk, he explains how social change can be made with the smallest gestures that do not require wealth or celebrity. Keep this in mind, as you watch, listen to, or read the transcript of Flintoff’s Talk.

In at least one paragraph (5-7 sentences), complete the questions/tasks below. Be as specific as possible:

Introduce the TED Talk by author and/or title, and then give a short summary (tell what it is about in your own words).
Think about the ideas you discussed in Part A. How do Flintoff’s ideas tie in with your views of social change? Use a direct quote from the TED Talk and follow it with at least one sentence of your own commentary/reaction to the quote.

    MBA 580 Organization Overview   (Processes, Structure, Culture)  Your company manufactures and distributes automobiles across six continents. The structure is very  complex and it is difficult to accurately count the levels of hierarchy. The company operates under a tall  matrixed structure design.   Tall structures can be cumbersome, and decision makers are often those farthest from the customer.  Communication can be slow and difficult, also slowing down decision­making speed. The specialized  functions and organizations, often referred to as centers of excellence or centers of expertise (COE),  allow for deep knowledge and expertise. Your company has many functional COEs where increased  structure, governance, and control allow for resource and process efficiencies. Resources are  centralized, reducing duplication of effort across the organization. These efficiencies can, however,  result in rigid, inflexible processes. In addition, COEs can create functional silos or reduced cross­ functional coordination and lack of connectedness, where each function is striving toward its own  unique objectives.  Your company follows a centralized and standardized approach where enterprise­wide decisions are  often made centrally and at the top of the hierarchy. This centralization makes it easier to implement  common policies and practices, prevents parts of the organization from becoming too independent, and  capitalizes on specialization.  Matrixed organizations are often associated with this specialized COE structure. Rather than having  permanent cross­functional teams or organizations working on specific projects or product launches,  matrixed organizations pull teams together from the various functional departments. Specialists are  pulled from functional areas to work on a specific project or product design. In essence, they report to  two managers at the same time and may work on multiple projects simultaneously. Although the project  manager, who is on the same leadership level as the functional vice president (VP), supervises the  project, the true management authority still resides with the VP.  Specialists supporting specific product launches generally remain “seated” with their functional team but meet regularly with their product team to advance the project. They may be fully dedicated to the  project or still work on other unrelated projects.  Finally, product teams are pulled together at the enterprise level and are not region­specific. Although  they may produce differentiated projects for unique regions, their primary focus is on enterprise­wide  initiatives.
