Organizational Culture

Below is the final paper with all the sections. Attached are the sections A-F that were completed previously with grading corrections on the papers included. This paper requires an abstract and appendices and has to be 3,500 words not including the abstract, appendices, references.
The proposal is the plan for an evidence-based practice project designed to address a problem, issue, or concern in the professional work setting. Although several types of evidence can be used to support a proposed solution, a sufficient and compelling base of support from valid research studies is required as the major component of that evidence. Proposals must be submitted in a format suitable for obtaining formal approval in the work setting. Proposals will vary in length depending upon the problem or issue addressed (3,500 and 5,000 words). The cover sheet, abstract, references pages, and appendices are not included in the word count.

Section headings for each section component are required. Evaluation of the proposal in all sections will be based upon the extent to which the depth of content reflects graduate-level critical thinking skills.

This project contains seven formal sections:

  1. Section A: Organizational Culture and Readiness Assessment
  2. Section B: Proposal/Problem Statement and Literature Review
  3. Section C: Solution Description
  4. Section D: Change Model
  5. Section E: Implementation Plan
  6. Section F: Evaluation of Process

Each section (A-F) will be submitted as a separate assignment in Topics 1-6 so your instructor can provide feedback (refer to applicable topics for complete descriptions of each section).

The final paper submission in Topic 7 will consist of the completed project (with revisions to all sections), title page, abstract, compiled references list, and appendices. Appendices will include a conceptual model for the project, handouts, data and evaluation collection tools, a budget, a timeline, resource lists, and approval forms, as previously assigned in individual section assignments.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is required.
Answer preview

Change is inevitable, and organizations need to ensure that they are open to or ready to change. By embracing change, organizations benefit from numerous benefits, including improving their efficiency and productivity. Failure for an organization to embrace change, they lose their market share to their competitors, and they may be eventually driven out of business. Also, it creates a bad reputation for its customers as they feel dissatisfied with the services provided.  Health organizations need to assess their readiness for change before implementing new procedures, technologies, or policies.   A change readiness assessment helps the management to gauge the organization’s preparedness to change.  When implementing an Evidence-Based Project (EBP), the administration needs to review different organization components, including organizational culture, knowledge and skills, resources, etc. In this assignment, the “Organizational Readiness for Change Assessment (ORCA) tool” was applied to evaluate the organization’s readiness to change.  ORCA is a tool proposed by Sharp and Sales (Lee, Hwang, & Lee, 2019).
