MBA 687 Module Seven Memo Guidelines and
Rubric
Overview
Your efforts at finalizing the Change Management toolkit are appreciated by the vice president (VP) and management team of the
U.S. branch of the Singaporean soware soluons provider. The earlier submissions you shared, including a change readiness report
presentaon on employee engagement and a report on change management models, have convinced leadership about your
experse at planning the required organizaonal change.
You also shared the change management plan last week, which idenfies stakeholders of significance, outlines strategic goals, and
recommends steps and strategies to implement the organizaonal changes required. While the VP applauded the details of the plan,
members of the leadership team have been sending you quesons about their role in change implementaon.
As an experienced HR consultant, you decide its best to collate your responses to their queries. You decide to send a memo with
some model leadership behaviors expected during change implementaon. You will also emphasize that the leadership team needs
to own the change management plan and the role of HR is that of a facilitator rather than a leader of change.
Prompt
Write a memo to the company leadership. In your memo, emphasize the need for model leadership behavior, especially during crisis
or mes of significant change. Also, emphasize that the role of HR is that of a change facilitator, as opposed to a change leader.
Specifically, you must address the following criteria:
Describe the need for model leadership behavior during mes of organizaonal change.
What are model leadership behaviors that should be encouraged across the organizaon at any me?
How should leaders inspire the workforce to culvate an environment that encourages knowledge sharing?
Explain how leaders should coach and mentor employees as the workforce transions through change.
How is a change leader different from a stakeholder of change?
How can change leaders coach and mentor the workforce to deal with change?
Describe the role of HR as a facilitator of change.
How correct is it to expect HR to lead rather than facilitate change?
How exactly is a change facilitator different from a change leader?
