The final paper topics can come from any of the material we have covered:
1. Understand the historical continuum of Organizational Behavior
2. Recognize the varying impacts of culture on organizations and people.
3. Understand how diversity and the lack of diversity impacts organizations.
4. Identify the differences between groups and teams.
5. Recognize how differing types of management behavior impact motivation.
6. List different types of organizational change.

In Section I your abstract should adhere to abstract guidelines set forth in the APA Manual.
In Section II you should identify a problem or need (something you deem to need improvement) in your organization.
In Section III you should identify a theory or theoretical application from our studies (to include our textbook) that you can apply in your organization to help mitigate the problem or eliminate the need.
In Section IV you should research the theory that you selected to identify relevant research or case studies that may help apply the theory to improve your organization.
In Section V you should utilize your research from section IV and your personal knowledge of your organization to develop a plan to implement a solution or program/intervention in your organization (based on the theory you select and your research).
In Section VI you should determine how you will assess the success of the plan (metrics, survey data, industry rankings, etc.) you will implement in your organization. This assessment should be detailed.
In Section VII you should summarize your paper.
Section VIII is your reference page; it needs to be in strict adherence to APA guidelines. An example for a paper might include a student identifying a lack of effective decision making in their organization. They may utilize Richard Daft’s effectiveness indicators as a theoretical base for their paper.
As a result of researching the theory, they identify Daft’s attribute of internal processes, specifically decision making power at all organizational levels as something they want to utilize for developing a plan to implement. The plan may include implementing decision making training, enhanced communication protocols among workers, supervisors, and directors, or hiring more experienced personnel. Evaluation measures to determine the success of the plan’s implementation could include decreases in mistakes, cost savings, less grievances, etc.

Create a 20-slide power point deck (including a reference slide & title slide). Consider one health policy issue discussed thus far in the class and create a power point slide show that could effectively describe this issue to a group of physical therapists who have not had this class.

The intended audience could be new health care professional students OR serve as an inservice for peers on such a topic. The content is more important than graphics, sounds, etc. Thus, you need only use power point and not worry about clip art or any type of audio. Please attach your assignment to this assignment area.

Power point templates are available within your Word software package. APA style does not apply to power point presentations. You do not need to create speaker notes. The sources you used should be in the final references slide using APA style for references.
