Identify New Ones Confronting Harrisburg Univers

Identify New Ones Confronting Harrisburg Univers

Hi I need help two assignments both questions are inter-related and are due by Thursday night. I have shared all the step-wise details below:

STEP 1: Choose only one topic for all 8 articles

Go through the business press (Fortune, The Economist, BusinessWeek, and so forth and any other LIRN- based) articles and find at least eight (8) articles completely related to one of these topics – downsizing OR implementation of a new technology, OR a merger OR acquisition.

STEP 2: Summary of each article (Discussion Question)

Prior to reading this DQ, please read the PA1 assignment and understand what the assignment is asking you to complete. Once you have an understanding of the PA1 assignment, please continue to the paragraph below to complete DQ1.

Research eight (8) peer-reviewed articles that can be used to answer your upcoming PA1 assignment. Your discussion should summarize the articles in such a way that it can justify any arguments you may present in your PA1 assignment and should be different from the abstract.

Important: Please ensure that your reference for the article is in 7th edition APA format, as your reference in your discussion post. Depending on which electronic database you use, you should see a “Cite” selection for your article. In addition, there should be a variety of articles summarized and as such, students should have different articles summarized. Your summary MUST include ALL of the following in your DQ post (include every item in the bullet list below, or you will not receive full credit):

Do these in order:

  • In correct APA format, write the Reference of the article.
  • Clearly state what the article is about and its purpose. (summary of the article)
  • Describe how you will use it in your upcoming professional assignment.
  • Repeat for a total of eight (8) peer-reviewed sources.

Please note: You may use your article summary, partially in your PA1 assignment.

STEP 3: Professional Assignment (use articles from Discussion post)

Go back through the articles from Discussion post and find at least five articles related to one of the change topics – either downsizing, implementation of a new technology, or a merger or acquisition. Then in a minimum of five (5) pages answer the below questions detailed in 7th edition APA formatted paper:

  1. What were the key frontline experiences listed in relation to your chosen change topic?
  2. How do they relate to those topics listed in Chapter 4 of the Goodman & Dingli text? (screen shots of the chapters covered so far and Palmar text pdf shared)
  3. Did you identify new ones confronting change managers?
  4. How would you prioritize these experiences?
  5. Do any stand out as “deal breakers”? Why?
  6. What new insights into implementing this type of change emerge from this?

Thank you for all the help.
