Cultural Diversity
In everyday life individuals can not overlook other cultures as if it does not matter. Most individuals wish that they all can be alike to avoid the way others may act towards them. Changing for the best is to encourage individuals that it is time for a change for everyone of all cultures throughout the world. A person may encounter cultural diversity everywhere they may go such as hospitals, schools, or stores but to make a difference one must understand culture, act as an alliance against racism, and form organizations for diverse groups to be able to stand together (ctb.ku.edu, 2017). Comment by Massey, Jennifer: What is the barrier in regards to cultural diversity in healthcare?
A proposed solution is letting individuals open on how they can overcome culture diversity even if it takes having group talks every week, letting individuals know that not just themselves feel down by the way others treat them and this should be a wakeup call for the ones that have been in this position before because it does matter if a person is Caucasian, African-American, Latino, or any color culture diversity should not be tolerated on the job. Individuals of any race allows us to have a job every day. Group talks, counseling for ones that keep having trouble, one on one reviews, and drop boxes on anything that a person may be feeling (Axner, 1993).

Cultural Diversity
In everyday life individuals can not overlook other cultures as if
it does not matter. Most individuals wish that they all can be
alike to avoid the way others may act towards them. Changing
for the best is to encourage individuals that it is time for a
change for everyone of all cultures throughout the world. A
person may encounter cultural diversity everywhere they may
go such as hospitals, schools, or stores but to make a difference
one must understand culture, act as an alliance against racism,
and form organizations for diverse groups to be able to stand
together (ctb.ku.edu, 2017). Comment by Massey, Jennifer:
What is the barrier in regards to cultural diversity in healthcare?
2. A proposed solution is letting individuals open on how
they can overcome culture diversity even if it takes having
group talks every week, letting individuals know that not just
themselves feel down by the way others treat them and this
should be a wakeup call for the ones that have been in this
position before because it does matter if a person is Caucasian,
African-American, Latino, or any color culture diversity should
not be tolerated on the job. Individuals of any race allows us to
have a job every day. Group talks, counseling for ones that keep
having trouble, one on one reviews, and drop boxes on anything

What humans failed to understand is that we all had to learn
how to talk and write so there is not a difference with
individuals of any culture. Managers of all organizations need
to make sure that their facility is free of culture diversity due to
lawsuits (Axner, 1993).
The organizational resources are always needed to implement
and maintain the change of plan. Such resources may include
the health centers, voluntary guidance and counseling centers,
guidance, and counseling centers. The change of management
involves the consideration of success factors and the objectives.
The change management methodology has several factors of
success such as sense of urgency must be established, increase
the company’s capability for change, here company’s ought to
be flexible to embrace change, the proper communication
should be done from those evoking it to those affected,
engaging all levels of leadership, and integration of
management strategies with the change((Lim, Daugherty, &
Haddad, 2013). Comment by Massey, Jennifer: Should have “a”
3. before sense.
The actual plan, in this case, is to try and use the universal
language of communication in the organization resources,
politeness, and the urge to extreme humbleness where necessary
to suit all kinds of clients (Lokey,2008). Comment by Massey,
Jennifer: This is good, the plan needs to be elaborated a bit to
explain how it will be executed.
For the implementation of the plan, there are some stakeholders
who are very vital in support of the implementation of the
proposed plan. The psychologists, the medical officers, and the
CEO. The stakeholders are agent during the implementation
since they need to understand first before they inform others of
the change of plan. They are required to master the change well
to show others, the workers, and the interested parties how the
change is beneficial. The disadvantages should be known earlier
to avoid surprises (Oldfield, 1998). Comment by Massey,
Jennifer: There should be a indentation here
Comment by Massey, Jennifer: What are the disadvantages
of the change plan? How can those be overcome?
Because of a change plan, the organization and its stakeholders
may experience both positive and negative impacts. More
interest is put on the positive effects that the plan may bring
about. Understanding the clients’ level of language of
communication and the use of common language is likely to
raise the rating of services offered in the organization.
Complete communication is where the recipient can encode the
exact information that is intended to reach him/her. Therefore,
trying to be in the shoes of a client involves some
compromising, tolerance, and accommodation of other people’s
cultures. A friendlier counselor is likely to get all the
information required to offer the best help possible. In general,
the change is expected to bring about better services in the
organization, hence positive effects. The stakeholders will
equally be affected positively by the best recommendations
4. from being more sociable (Hewitt-Taylor, 2013).
The implementation plan ought to take effect after one week of
the meeting committee of the stakeholders and the relevant
officials. The change plan will take its course strictly until
undesirable effects overpower the advantages. Comment by
Massey, Jennifer: This is not a full paragraph. The
implementation plan consists of a good outline, how will
undesirable affects not overpower the advantages?
The implementation of the plan change follows a few steps as
follows (Lim, Daugherty, & Haddad, 2013).
1. The creation of a plan and defining the change
management process
2. Implementing change management strategy and monitor
before, during and after the change.
3. Have a backup policy in place in case the change is not
valid.
4. Evaluation-The change coordinator needs to see where the
change wasn’t practical, caused problems and whether it was
active.
5. Update the change management plan in case the initial plan
isn’t effective.
The potential barriers to implementation of the change plan may
come from both within the company or outside. Some of the
barriers may include being afraid when the management and
organization focuses more on being afraid of change as well as
lack of success rather than having the potential for growth it
makes it difficult to plan of the organization. (Rittenhouse,
2005).
To overcome these barriers, a bright and skillful approach is
introduced to tackle fast organizational growth as well as
complexity. An organization can break these barriers by
employing diligent, quality and highly effective project and
change management approach. Once you understand and manage
these barriers to change management, it will be easy to
implement the change. Eventually, everyone in the organization
5. will be comfortable to embrace the new change (Lokey, 2008).
Comment by Massey, Jennifer: There needs to be a
transition or header between these paragraphs.
There is need to assess the already implemented plan so that the
evaluated scheme may be used as a basis for a summary of a
situation. Evaluation of the change plan can also be useful when
it comes to salary increase or bonus. Especially, when the
change occurs for the best that everyone understands the
meaning of cultural diversity within the organization will go
hand in hand as change progresses and this will help the
organization grow and become successful (Poole & Van, 2004).
Comment by Massey, Jennifer: How will the plan be
evaluated? There should be headers dividing each section of the
paper.
Regarding this, there are different steps that will help to put my
organization on the right track for continuous high quality
improvement. The first step will define my stakeholders. My
stakeholders are the supporters, recipients, implementer and
decision makers related to this program. Getting them involved
early on will help you get different perspectives on the program
and establish common expectations. This helps to clarify goals
and objectives of the program you’ll evaluate, so everyone
understands its purpose (Carnell, 1982).
In the second step, I will conclude the data comparisons,
surveys, strengths, and weaknesses. You can compare the
evaluation information that pinpoints goals the program, against
the standards established by your stakeholders or funders (Poole
& Van,2004). Comment by Massey, Jennifer: Comment by
Massey, Jennifer: Per the professor, first person shouldn’t be
used in the paper
The third step is to present the research and making sure it is
used. It is important that all the challenging work you put into
program evaluation gets used for quality improvement. When
you turn in your findings it is important to know the values,
6. beliefs, and perceptions of your group; build on the
organization background and make sure it is common ground;
and state the purpose for your recommendations before you get
to the details of the plan.
The dissemination plan for this change plan is also significant
here because it depends entirely on the mode of communication
used to reach the target recipients. The success of my
dissemination relies on the number of people received the
information. I will use tools such as; web analytics, talking to
dissemination partners about audiences and distribution and
using the social media. We continue to strategize on the means
to ensure public health practitioners access this information, by
the following. Exploring the opportunities for relevancy, fill
gaps of need rather than re-inventing the wheel to create new
products and lastly, inform and re-inform our internal
stakeholders of these products (www.re-aim.org, 2017).
Comment by Massey, Jennifer: Overall, the paper has good
content. There needs to be some changes with the first person
writing. The paper should also be 2,000 words at least . There
could be more specifics to the change proposal topic to explain
the overall project.

Cultural Diversity
Barriers Needed to Evaluate the Project
In everyday life individuals can not overlook other cultures as if
it does not matter. Most individuals wish that they all can be
alike to avoid the way others may act towards them. Changing
for the best is to encourage individuals that it is time for a
change for everyone of all cultures throughout the world. A
person may encounter cultural diversity everywhere they may
go such as hospitals, schools, or stores but to make a difference
one must understand culture, act as an alliance against racism,
and form organizations for diverse groups to be able to stand
together (ctb.ku.edu, 2017).
A proposed solution is letting individuals open on how
they can overcome culture diversity even if it takes having
group talks every week, letting individuals know that not just
themselves feel down by the way others treat them and this
should be a wakeup call for the ones that have been in this
position before because it does matter if a person is Caucasian,
African-American, Latino, or any color culture diversity should
not be tolerated on the job. Individuals of any race allows us to
have a job every day. Group talks, counseling for ones that keep
having trouble, one on one reviews, and drop boxes on anything
18. that a person may be feeling (Axner, 1993).
The initiated outcome for this barrier would be making
sure that individuals of any culture would feel comfortable
during their visit at the hospital, around a physician or nurse.
What humans failed to understand is that we all had to learn
how to talk and write so there is not a difference with
individuals of any culture. Managers of all organizations need
to make sure that their facility is free of culture diversity due to
lawsuits (Axner, 1993).
The organizational resources are always needed to implement
and maintain the change of plan. Such resources may include
the health centers, voluntary guidance and counseling centers,
guidance, and counseling centers. The change of management
involves the consideration of success factors and the objectives.
The change management methodology has several factors of
success such as sense of urgency must be established, increase
the company’s capability for change, here company’s ought to
be flexible to embrace change, the proper communication
should be done from those evoking it to those affected,
engaging all levels of leadership, and integration of
management strategies with the change((Lim, Daugherty, &
Haddad, 2013).
The actual plan, in this case, is to try and use the universal
language of communication in the organization resources,
politeness, and the urge to extreme humbleness where necessary
to suit all kinds of clients (Lokey,2008).
Change Proposal: Implementation Plan- Cultural Diversity
Implementing the Plan to change cultural diversity
For the implementation of the plan, there are some stakeholders
who are very vital in support of the implementation of the
proposed plan. The psychologists, the medical officers, and the
CEO. The stakeholders are agent during the implementation
since they need to understand first before they inform others of
the change of plan. They are required to master the change well
to show others, the workers, and the interested parties how the
change is beneficial. The disadvantages should be known earlier
19. to avoid surprises (Oldfield, 1998).
Because of a change plan, the organization and its stakeholders
may experience both positive and negative impacts. More
interest is put on the positive effects that the plan may bring
about. Understanding the clients’ level of language of
communication and the use of common language is likely to
raise the rating of services offered in the organization.
Complete communication is where the recipient can encode the
exact information that is intended to reach him/her. Therefore,
trying to be in the shoes of a client involves some
compromising, tolerance, and accommodation of other people’s
cultures. A friendlier counselor is likely to get all the
information required to offer the best help possible. In general,
the change is expected to bring about better services in the
organization, hence positive effects. The stakeholders will
equally be affected positively by the best recommendations
from being more sociable (Hewitt-Taylor, 2013).
The implementation plan ought to take effect after one week of
the meeting committee of the stakeholders and the relevant
officials. The change plan will take its course strictly until
undesirable effects overpower the advantages.
The implementation of the plan change follows a few steps as
follows (Lim, Daugherty, & Haddad, 2013).
1. The creation of a plan and defining the change

2. Implementing change management strategy and monitor
before, during and after the change.
3. Have a backup policy in place in case the change is not
valid.
4. Evaluation-The change coordinator needs to see where the
change wasn’t practical, caused problems and whether it was

5. Update the change management plan in case the initial plan

The potential barriers to implementation of the change plan may
come from both within the company or outside. Some of the
20. barriers may include being afraid when the management and

you turn in your findings it is important to know the values,
beliefs, and perceptions of your group; build on the
organization background and make sure it is common ground;
and state the purpose for your recommendations before you get
to the details of the plan.
Dissemination
The dissemination plan for this change plan is also significant
here because it depends entirely on the mode of communication
used to reach the target recipients. The success of my
dissemination relies on the number of people received the

stakeholders of these products (www.re-aim.org, 2017).
