Organizational Development Manual

Scenario

You are a new general manager for a large organization. With the current environment of being in a pandemic, working from home is now the new norm. Many traditional “old school” managers are now being forced into remote working, and many are having difficulty in dealing with the inability to see their team members in person. You are a recent graduate from an all online higher education college, where being online to do course work and interact with the professor is “normal.” You decide to take some of that experience and also conduct some research to create an organizational change manual for all managers and employees dealing with working remotely.

Instructions

Using Microsoft Word, create an organizational development manual that includes the following:

  • Describe the importance of R&D for an organization.
  • Describe how organizations can use research and development to foster innovation.
  • Describe some innovative approaches of research and development (R&D) to organizational change, specifically to the remote worker.
  • Describe how can we overcome the “old school” mentality of remote work and what are some development tools that can help employees/managers with the transition.
  • Review the impact of working remotely with regards to managing resources of the company. Include the economic impact of remote work on the company.
  • Describe some of the ways remote working can impact the sustainability of the organization.

PLEASE BE THOROUGH

Case Study: Developing Transnational Groups

Case Study: Developing Transnational Groups

Use the assigned chapters and the “Interpersonal Relationships in Transnational, Virtual Teams: Towards a Configurational Perspective” article located on this week’s University Library Resources page to complete this assignment.

Read the following case study scenario:

In a recent merger, two companies combined; one company was located in the United States, and the other company was located in Japan. Although both companies are now a unified business organization, offices will be kept in both countries. Because of this merger, transnational groups are now being formed with employees from the United States and from Japan.

Write a 1,050- to 1,400-word paper that addresses the following:

  • Define organizational culture, and discuss how an organization’s culture can affect its members.
  • How might individualism and collectivism affect the functioning of the new transnational work groups in this scenario?
  • Discuss strategies that can help transnational work groups be successful and effective when meeting face to face.
  • Because transnational work groups will generally work virtually, discuss strategies focused on helping virtual, transnational work groups be successful and effective.

Format your paper consistent with APA guidelines.
