Recommending intervention strategies change management theory

Prepare a 5-8 page recommendation for intervention and adoption strategies, including metrics to track adoption.

Introduction

Systems thinking points out cycles of cause and effect. A paradox with systems thinking is that it is frequently counterintuitive. An example is the more you strive, the more you undermine your chances. Learning teams can use systems thinking as a problem-solving tool, but it has the most effect on how teams think about complex issues. It is important for you to become familiar with causal loop diagram archetypes, which allow us to talk about the interrelationship and feedback process and help diagnose systems that produce growth, decline, or equilibrium. By learning about systems thinking, teams can align their common understanding and collaborate to establish strategies for their business dilemmas.

Overview

The purpose of this assessment is to make recommendations for your client organization on their change management strategy. Your recommendation should include intervention strategies, an explanation of how to reinforce the change, and the metrics that will be used to track adoption. Remember that your CM Strategy: Recommendations for Intervention and Adoption Strategies should be complete and comprehensive so that after you leave, the client organization would know how to execute on the strategy.

Preparation

Review your previous assessments and the resources you have explored to help you make recommendations for your client organization. Your recommendations should result from collaboration and output from working with your client. Make sure you have solicited their input and feedback and incorporated them in your final recommendations.
