IDS 401 Milestone Four Guidelines and Rubric
Analyzing an Issue or Event in Globalization through the Lenses
of the Natural and Applied Sciences and the Social Sciences
Overview
For the first part of your final project, the critical analysis portfolio, you will select a specific issue or event in globalization and critically analyze it through the
four general education lenses: history, humanities, social sciences, and natural and applied sciences. By viewing the issue or event through these lenses, you will
gain insight into how the interconnected nature of globalization affects society as well as both your own individual framework of perception and the choices,
attitudes, and behaviors of others in the world around you.
For this fourth milestone, due in Module Six, you will analyze your issue or event in globalization through the lenses of the natural and applied sciences and the
social sciences. Like Milestone Two, this task provides you with an opportunity to dive deeper into your analysis of the issuer or event through these two lenses.
Prompt
First, review your work in Modules Five and Six as well as the Four Lenses document from Module One.
Next, analyze your popular-culture artifact through the natural and applied sciences by exploring the following questions:
How does this issue or event provide a social commentary through the natural and applied sciences?
In what ways can science help resolve or enhance your issue or event?
Next, analyze your popular-culture artifact through the lens of the social sciences, and address the following:
How does this issue or event interact with the social sciences lens and impact social issues?
In what ways does the Social Science lens help articulate a deeper understanding of the social issue(s) that inform your issue or event?
This milestone provides you with a chance to practice analyzing your issue or event through these lenses and receive feedback on this practice attempt.
Note: You are completing two separate analyses: one from the natural and applied sciences and one from the social sciences. You must submit two papers in a
single Word document.

Exercise I: Developing a research instrument
QUANTITATIVE STUDIES
Now that you have gone through all the chapters that constitute Step I of the research process, this exercise provides you with an opportunity to apply that knowledge to formulate a research problem that is of interest to you. As you know, selecting a research problem is one of the most important aspects of social research, so this exercise will, therefore, help you in formulating your research problem by raising questions and issues that will guide you to examine critically various facets and implications of what you are proposing to study. The exercise is designed to provide a directional framework that guides you through the problem formulation path. Keep in mind that the questions and issues raised in this exercise are not prescriptive but indicative and directional; hence you need to be critical and innovative while working through them. Thinking through a research problem with care can prevent a tremendous wastage of human and financial resources.
A research problem should be clearly stated and be specific in nature. The feasibility of the study in terms of the availability of technical expertise, finances, and time, and in terms of its relevance, should be considered thoroughly at the problem-formulation stage. In studies that attempt to establish a causal relationship or an association, the accuracy of the measurement of independent (cause) and dependent (effect) variables is of crucial importance and, hence, should be given serious consideration. If you have already selected a problem, you need not go through this process.
Start by identifying a broad area y.

The process of engaged decision-making connected to activities performed in the event of challenging, uncertain, or hazardous conditions is termed as leadership. Management is the purposeful activity of directing individuals through a set of formulated policies and procedures that are scientifically approved to attain the set healthcare outcomes. For example, pain therapy needs an awareness of the fundamental etiology of pain and a collection of therapeutic alternatives that may be deployed to the circumstance at present and may vary from basic to complex activities (Bleich, 2016). By participating to issue detection, accomplishing tasks, and offering input for assessment, followers engage with individuals who are leading or managing. Several structured roles, like a nurse manager or a charge nurse, necessitate an enhanced collection of leadership and management skills to define institutional aims and goals, supervise human resources, facilitate staff with productivity responses, implement change, and solve conflicts in order to achieve client care and institutional specifications. Nursing, unlike other professions, requires nurses to alternate from managing, leading, and following on a regular basis.

Nursing is a well-rounded profession. In dealing with roles in nursing they are important for the flow of the flow and hierarchy. The three jobs of leadership, managing, and following all make up different roles. Leadership and management are often viewed as one and the same but that is not the case. Where they differ is leadership is looking forward and thinking of new ways to improve and management makes sure these new policies are being followed. Leadership focuses on “maximizing” effectiveness meaning increasing productivity of the floor (Marquis & Huston, 2017). Management handles in controlling the environment like; salaries, overtime, supplies, etc. (Marquis & Huston, 2017). Those that are followed are the ones carrying out the policies. For example, a leader creates the policy of after exiting a patient’s room to sanitize their hands to decrease the spread of disease. Management’s role is to ensure that this policy is being carried out by those working on the floor and explaining the purpose of the policy. Lastly, those that follow are the ones putting the policy in action and are applying it. They each play a role in creating a cohesive flow. There should always be an open line of communication between all parties so alterations can be made to improve effectiveness even more. In the case of a nurse moving through the positions, it is entirely possible. To better explain picture this; a nurse begins at the follower level (following the policy) and gets promoted to a management position this nurse has a better understanding of how the floor works and what alterations may be necessary to promote a bet ...

Ethical Healthcare Scenarios Worksheet
Scenario 1: Medical coding in a physician's practice
Imagine you work in a high-pressure cardiology physician's office and you are one of two medical coders. Your supervisor is very focused on the greatest reimbursement to satisfy revenue projections for the practice. As a result, you are asked to "up-code" billing. How can the pressure of acquiring the maximum repayment for services lead to manipulating or falsifying documentation?
1. What is “up-code” billing? Is it legal? Is it ethical?
2. What ethical principles are evident in this scenario (beneficence, justice, autonomy, non-maleficence)?
3. How can the pressure of acquiring the maximum repayment for services lead to manipulating/falsifying documentation?
Scenario 2: Administration of patient medications in the hospital setting
Imagine you are a new graduate nurse working nights on a busy medical unit. You just received a new patient who needs to be admitted to your unit and you just finished medicating a patient with a narcotic injection with a dose greater than ordered. Clearly understanding medication errors may lead to patient injury and even death, explain why a clinician may choose not to report the incident.
1. What constitutes a medication error? Is it legal? Is it ethical?
2. What ethical principles are evident in this scenario (beneficence, justice, autonomy, non-maleficence)?
3. Why might a clinician choose not to report a medication error?
Scenario 3: Not hiring a qualified individual because of discrimination
Imagine you are a new human resources director in a nonprofit organization and have been pressured not to hire Middle Eastern candidates by the organization's CEO. In the United States, discrimination against people based on their ethnicity, race, or cultural orientation is strictly forbidden under federal and state laws. Ethical discrimination may result in the breeding of ill feelings at work, as well as reduced productivity. To eliminate these ramifications, organizations need to put forth increased effort in curbing ethical discrimination in the employment sector. What are some interventions organizations can put in place to prevent discrimination?
1. What is discrimination? Is it illegal? Is it ethical?
2. What principles are evident in this scenario (beneficence, justice, autonomy, non-maleficence)?
3. Name three interventions organization can put in place to prevent discrimination.

ONE POINT OF VIEW
Paul N. Friga and Richard B. Chapas
MAKE BETTER BUSINESS DECISIONS
Decision-making in today’s environment is difficult, and
new managers in R&D and other technical positions are
often shocked at the lack of systematic decision-making
they find in their interactions with upper management
and their peers in other parts of the organization.
However, there is a well-tested source of insight into how
to improve the decision-making in business: the scien-
tific method. Although it has revolutionized our lives and
the ability to manipulate our material world, the scien-
tific method has not been widely adapted for business
executives. Nevertheless, we believe it can improve the
efficiency and effectiveness of decision-making for
executives, research managers, and business leaders in
general.
In this article, we first examine the typical decision-
making environment in organizations, highlighting the
challenges executives face in their quest for better per-
formance. Next, we introduce some of the basic tenets
from the scientific method and describe how they can
play a role in overcoming several of the key decision-
making deficiencies. We then describe a five-step
process that can assist in the implementation of scientific
method techniques in daily decision-making, illustrated
by a case study relating to new technology develop-
ment.
Challenges Executives Face
Three key macro-level elements that differentiate the
daily decision-making of today include information
overload, shareholder pressure, and shortened business
cycle time:
• The search tools in use for problem solving by execu-
tives at most companies today yield a quantity of infor-
mation that can be overwhelming. This situation has
increased the importance of knowledge management
skills to sort the data, identify what is truly relevant, and
then to create value from it.
• Shareholder pressure, a result of the rise in worldwide
capital markets, has led to a relentless drive to achieve
short-term financial results, often at the expense of long-
term considerations. A number of well-known corporate
failures may have resulted from the pressure to achieve
consistent growth at any cost.
• Finally, the time-to-market and overall business cycles
have shortened to a level unimaginable 50 years ago.
Decisions must be made faster than ever before (1).
Ultimately, decision-making is done on an individual
level. Alarmingly, much of the research suggests that
humans are extremely limited in their decision-making

management at the Kelley School of Business at

Action research is a philosophy and methodology of research generally applied in the social sciences. It seeks trasformative change through the simultaneous process of taking action and doing research which are linked together by critical reflection
In this workshop we will explore the meaning of “Professional Learning Communities”, analyse a number of models and consider the value of planning and launching a PLC in the context of the ICPNA school environment. We will define PLCs and why they are considered to be important, basing some of these concepts on recent theories of connectivism and trust. Leadership will be seen as a shared experience in a change-ready school. The skills for motivating and inspiring a whole school culture through reference to Maslow and McGregor will be examined while the concept of both Heads and Teachers as learners in their own right will be stressed. Finally, strategies for launching a PLC in school will be discussed.

Write a
research
proposal
HOW TO...
Valerie Finigan
covers all aspects
of what a research
proposal needs to
include and where to
begin when writing it.
Writing a research proposal may be the most challenging part of the research
process – the document must
systematically recommend how
your study will be conducted
(Hollins-Martin and Flemming,
2010). It is the key to gaining ethical
approval, grant application success
and academic qualifi cation.
Yet the question is often asked:
‘What will a research proposal
contain and what should it look like?’
First of all, it is important that you
are passionate about the research
topic, have a vested interest in it, and
that it will add to the profession’s
body of scientifi c knowledge.
Discuss your idea with an
experienced researcher too, prior
to starting your proposal.
Th e proposals must be succinctly
written and clearly chronicle facts,
it must craft a convincing line of
reasoning and an argument for study
approval (Marshall, 2012).
Ask the questions:
1. What is the research about?
2. Why is it important?
3. What is the process that will be
taken to accomplish project goals
and objectives?
4. What will the project cost?
5. Who is the best person to conduct
this study? (Marshall, 2012).
Simple steps to follow:
1 Read the criteria for your proposal
If a format for writing is
given, use it. Check grammar, word
count and remember format and
brevity are important (12-point font,
legible and with a generous margin
will make the proposal easier to
read and comment on) to keep the
reviewer more engaged. Find a peer
or colleague to proofread the proposal
before submission, they may fi nd a
fl aw that you have overlooked. Submit
on time, or the work may be declined.
2 Underpin the study with a
research question
Th is enables you to choose the title
and design for your project and
identify the appropriate methodology
to answer the question of interest.
While the idea of the subject may be
in your mind, the question must be
focused and manageable to enable you
a purposeful and planned approach.
Th e title you choose for the
study should be used consistently
throughout all regulatory documents
(ethical approval consideration,
proposal and any grant applications).
Th e title needs to draw the attention
of the reviewer, so make it succinct
and exciting.
3 The abstractA brief description of your
research proposal, the
abstract should be a summary of the
entire project. It includes a statement
of the purpose of your research and
a brief description of its study design
and methodology.

IDS 402 Milestone Four Guidelines and Rubric
Analyzing an Issue or Event in Wellness Through the Lenses of the Natural and Applied Sciences and Social Sciences
Overview: For the first part of your final project, the critical analysis portfolio, you will select an issue or event in wellness and critically analyze it through the
four general education lenses: history, humanities, natural and applied sciences, and social sciences. By viewing the issue or event through these lenses, you will
gain insight into how the interconnected nature of wellness affects society as well as both your own individual framework of perception and the choices,
attitudes, and behaviors of others in the world around you.
For this fourth milestone, due in Module Six, you will analyze your issue/event in wellness through the lenses of the natural and applied sciences and the social
sciences. Like Milestone Two, this task provides you with an opportunity to dive deeper into your analysis of the issue/event through these two lenses. This will
provide you with a chance to practice analyzing your issue/event through these lenses and receive feedback on this practice attempt.
Prompt: First, review your work in Modules Five and Six, as well as the IDS Four General Education Lenses document in the Reading and Resources section of
Module One.
Next, analyze your issue/event through the lens of the natural and applied sciences by exploring the following questions:
How does this issue/event provide a social commentary through the natural and applied sciences?
In what ways can science help resolve or enhance your issue/event?
Next, analyze your issue/event through the lens of the social sciences, and address the following:
How does this issue/event interact with the social sciences lens and impact social issues?
In what ways does the social science lens help articulate a deeper understanding of the social issue(s) that inform your issue/event?
Note: You are completing two separate analyses: one from the natural and applied sciences and one from the social sciences. You must submit two papers in a
single Word document.
Be sure to use evidence from research to support your analysis. Refer to course resources, the IDS 402 Research LibGuide (linked in the Start Here section of your
course), and any other pertinent resources to support your responses. Relevant current news sources may be used with instructor approval. Incorporate
instructor feedback into Final Project Part One.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Lens Analysis: In this section of your assignment, you will analyze your issue/event through two of the four general education lenses.
A. Analyze your issue/event through the lens of the natural and applied sciences for determining its impact on various institutions. Utilize evidence
from research to support your analysis.
B. Analyze your issue/event ...

Action research is a philosophy and methodology of research generally applied in the social sciences. It seeks trasformative change through the simultaneous process of taking action and doing research which are linked together by critical reflection
In this workshop we will explore the meaning of “Professional Learning Communities”, analyse a number of models and consider the value of planning and launching a PLC in the context of the ICPNA school environment. We will define PLCs and why they are considered to be important, basing some of these concepts on recent theories of connectivism and trust. Leadership will be seen as a shared experience in a change-ready school. The skills for motivating and inspiring a whole school culture through reference to Maslow and McGregor will be examined while the concept of both Heads and Teachers as learners in their own right will be stressed. Finally, strategies for launching a PLC in school will be discussed.

Write a
research
proposal
HOW TO...
Valerie Finigan
covers all aspects
of what a research
proposal needs to
include and where to
begin when writing it.
Writing a research proposal may be the most challenging part of the research
process – the document must
systematically recommend how
your study will be conducted
(Hollins-Martin and Flemming,
2010). It is the key to gaining ethical
approval, grant application success
and academic qualifi cation.
Yet the question is often asked:
‘What will a research proposal
contain and what should it look like?’
First of all, it is important that you
are passionate about the research
topic, have a vested interest in it, and
that it will add to the profession’s
body of scientifi c knowledge.
Discuss your idea with an
experienced researcher too, prior
to starting your proposal.
Th e proposals must be succinctly
written and clearly chronicle facts,
it must craft a convincing line of
reasoning and an argument for study
approval (Marshall, 2012).
Ask the questions:
1. What is the research about?
2. Why is it important?
3. What is the process that will be
taken to accomplish project goals
and objectives?
4. What will the project cost?
5. Who is the best person to conduct
this study? (Marshall, 2012).
Simple steps to follow:
1 Read the criteria for your proposal
If a format for writing is
given, use it. Check grammar, word
count and remember format and
brevity are important (12-point font,
legible and with a generous margin
will make the proposal easier to
read and comment on) to keep the
reviewer more engaged. Find a peer
or colleague to proofread the proposal
before submission, they may fi nd a
fl aw that you have overlooked. Submit
on time, or the work may be declined.
2 Underpin the study with a
research question
Th is enables you to choose the title
and design for your project and
identify the appropriate methodology
to answer the question of interest.
While the idea of the subject may be
in your mind, the question must be
focused and manageable to enable you
a purposeful and planned approach.
Th e title you choose for the
study should be used consistently
throughout all regulatory documents
(ethical approval consideration,
proposal and any grant applications).
Th e title needs to draw the attention
of the reviewer, so make it succinct
and exciting.
3 The abstractA brief description of your
research proposal, the
abstract should be a summary of the
entire project. It includes a statement
of the purpose of your research and
a brief description of its study design
and methodology.
4 Introduction sectionWithin the introduction
you should include some
background information about your
topic that is appropriate and to the
point. Here you convey the main

Analyzing an Issue or Event in Wellness Through the Lenses of the Natural and Applied Sciences and Social Sciences
Overview: For the first part of your final project, the critical analysis portfolio, you will select an issue or event in wellness and critically analyze it through the
four general education lenses: history, humanities, natural and applied sciences, and social sciences. By viewing the issue or event through these lenses, you will
gain insight into how the interconnected nature of wellness affects society as well as both your own individual framework of perception and the choices,
attitudes, and behaviors of others in the world around you.
For this fourth milestone, due in Module Six, you will analyze your issue/event in wellness through the lenses of the natural and applied sciences and the social
sciences. Like Milestone Two, this task provides you with an opportunity to dive deeper into your analysis of the issue/event through these two lenses. This will
provide you with a chance to practice analyzing your issue/event through these lenses and receive feedback on this practice attempt.
Prompt: First, review your work in Modules Five and Six, as well as the IDS Four General Education Lenses document in the Reading and Resources section of
Module One.
Next, analyze your issue/event through the lens of the natural and applied sciences by exploring the following questions:
How does this issue/event provide a social commentary through the natural and applied sciences?
In what ways can science help resolve or enhance your issue/event?
Next, analyze your issue/event through the lens of the social sciences, and address the following:
How does this issue/event interact with the social sciences lens and impact social issues?
In what ways does the social science lens help articulate a deeper understanding of the social issue(s) that inform your issue/event?
Note: You are completing two separate analyses: one from the natural and applied sciences and one from the social sciences. You must submit two papers in a
single Word document.
Be sure to use evidence from research to support your analysis. Refer to course resources, the IDS 402 Research LibGuide (linked in the Start Here section of your
course), and any other pertinent resources to support your responses. Relevant current news sources may be used with instructor approval. Incorporate
instructor feedback into Final Project Part One.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Lens Analysis: In this section of your assignment, you will analyze your issue/event through two of the four general education lenses.
A. Analyze your issue/event through the lens of the natural and applied sciences for determining its impact on various institutions. Utilize evidence
from research to support your analysis.
B. Analyze your issue/event ...

Final Written Art Project (500 words) carefully and creatively written words and sentences. Artist Statement (250 words)
WRITTEN ART PROJECT
Create a disjunctive or non-narrative piece
that engages all three aspects of reality that we have been discussing throughout the quarter: 1) larger political, social, and economic realities 2) personal or human dramatic situation and 3) detritus of existence. Make sure each of these are well represented and that they do not merely serve as a backdrop or props for other parts of your piece. In other words, make sure each of these aspects of reality is given its due as determining of your or others reality.
Possible Strategies and Advice:
Switch between first and third person perspectives. Make use of actual seeings—what you see. Describe and only occasionally explain or meditate. Meditate a great deal but be sure you are specific . Enact and don’t preach.
Create a concept (a title for your piece) that gives the reader a sense of the intent of your work.
This concept should serve to suggest complementary or conflictual relations between the different parts of your piece. Ultimately in placing all your parts together, in proximity to one another, you want the “whole” to be greater than the sum of the parts.
ARTIST STATEMENT
Please describe the intent of your piece and how you think its disjunctive form allows you to create a sense of reality that you wish to create. Please consider key words and concepts from the module syllabus as well as the ideas that have emerged from course discussions and thought challenges. You might also find these artist’s statements of use:

Question 1 (Christopher Crenshaw)
Environments which foster intrapreneurship
1. Role-modeling
2. Receptiveness
3. Consistency
To create an intrapreneurship friendly environment I believe
that these three factors must be involved: role-modeling,
receptiveness, and consistency. Management should be the
change they want to see. If they are not, everything they ever
preached becomes lies, even the good they have done. Not only
should managers be role-models, but other employees as well.
When individuals see employees they are fond of or everyone
else getting onboard and conforming to the new standards, they
will be likely to follow as well. Receptiveness is very important
for intrapreneurship because if your proposed change is not
accepted by the masses or understood properly, it will never
succeed. Lastly, consistency is the last key measure to success.
It is comparable to going to the gym. If you want to see change
you have to consistently work at it, through the highs and the
lows.
Reducing the 70% failure rate
Reducing the 70% failure rate can be achieved by using various
change management techniques. First, “Enabling leaders are
predominantly positioned in the middle of a company’s
hierarchy. They enable entrepreneurial leaders by supporting
them directly and removing obstacles that stand in the way of
success” (Somers, 2021, p.1). Other ways to reduce this rate are
9. building on capabilities. “Employees are what they think, feel,
and believe in” (Dewar & Keller, 2009, p.1). This method not
only tells your employees you believe in them to create change,
but they should also believe in themselves and strive for
greatness. All in all, there are plenty of ways to inhibit
intrapreneurship and lower the failure rates of change.
QUESTION 2 (Jacquelyne)
It is critical for intrapreneurs to have a growth mindset in which
the individual recognizes that even little changes can have
significant consequences in all aspects of our lives and
businesses. An encouraging environment in which personnel are
flexible to change but also aware of potential pitfalls is
necessary for successful intrapreneurial operations. While
having a growth mindset may be simple for an individual,
understanding the need of change for a company as a whole can
be challenging. Many companies intentionally attempt to avoid
change management, which might make it difficult for
intrapreneurs to thrive. According to Gleeson (2017), more than
70% of organizational transformation efforts fail, a figure that
is projected to rise over time. The following are three elements
that serve as the foundation for a positive intrapreneurial
environment:
Innovative Mindset – The intrapreneur should make it a habit to
say yes frequently and to try new things in their day-to-day
operations.
Healthy Competition - Healthy rivalry among those in charge of
carrying out tasks will motivate them to give it their all and
contribute to the company's success.
Teamwork - A culture of inclusion and teamwork should be
established by the intrapreneur. This networking group has the
potential to expand, allowing the various abilities on the teams
to be showcased.
In my opinion, I feel that nimble change management is a
successful means of lowering the projected 70% failure rate
because it allows change agents to set forth rules that allow for
10. creativity while still allowing them to oversee each component
of the change from afar. Setting up flexible change management
procedures allows change agents to build a system where rules
are followed legally and ethically, but where they can be bent as
long as nothing unlawful or immoral occurs. It also enables
change agents to anticipate consequences and put protections in
place to limit or reduce the impact.
QUESTION 3 (Jessica Am)
Assess Kotter’s proposed method as principles used to guide
actions. Is Kotter’s method flexible enough to develop effective
change management procedures across several cultures or is it
specific to the point that there seems to be only one way to
manage change? For example, is there only one way to create a
sense of urgency?
The 8-Steps Process for Leading Change was created in an
attempt to identify and extract success factors in change
management and its execution strategies. These leading change
strategies include creating a sense of urgency, building a
guiding coalition, forming a strategic vision and initiatives,
enlisting a volunteer army, enabling action by removing
barriers, generating short-term wins, sustaining acceleration,
and institution change (Kotter, n.d., para.1).
These principles are used as a framework or methodology for
leading change. They can be subjective and adapted to fit
different cultures, beliefs, and viewpoints to lead to change. It
seems only logical that there can be multiple ways and
techniques to achieve the desired outcome based on cultural
identity. While it will take a true understanding of the audience
and what motivates and drives them to accomplish each strategy
point with awareness and a delicate approach it can be
accomplished.
Estimate the level of effort it might take to transition from a
rules-based environment to a principle-informing-rules
environment. What are two major obstacles that might be
encountered?
Principles motivate us to do what we think is right or wrong
11. while rules require us to do what someone else thinks is right or
wrong. Over time moving to a principles-based environment the
principles become the new rules. To successfully move to a
principles-based approach leadership must be able to allow
rules to shift and change while allowing those shifts to take root
and grow. However, challenges that may occur are if the
organization is not open to creating fluidity and leaders not
being willing to re-imagine what their office culture is to look
like, as well as general receptiveness from members of the
organization (Anand, 2019, pg.43).
Offer a link to a video or an article that provides additional
information about principles informing rules, as well as
effective change management procedures.

QUESTION 4 (Heather)
Kotter’s change model is centered around the idea that 75% of
the employees must buy into the change, so its essential that
organizations focus hard on Step one of his proposed methods to
start change off the right way. Step one is to create a sense of
urgency through effective communication to rally others to see
why the change must happen based on the shared opportunity.
From there, steps two and three are forming a team or coalition
complete with a mission statement, vision and initiatives that
roll up to the change. This makes sense because if its not
entirely clear what specifically needs to happen, the tactical,
fundamental “things” that need to occur in order to drive the
change, then its not going to be tangible to the teams in the
organization. Step five is to remove barriers to change that
initiatives can be completed so that wins can be generated and
celebrated in step 6. This step is equally critical in the sense
that momentum and passion must be maintained to keep the
12. change motion happening and keep everyone in that mindset.
This leads into step seven which is to sustain that momentum or
acceleration so that change can be fully instituted in step eight.
In general, Kotter’s concepts have merit in that there must be
urgency, there must be a team of leaders or stakeholders and
executors to perform a role in the change plan and that morale
and momentum must be considered throughout the process. In
reading through steps however, it feels that a company needs to
be set up in just the right way for everyone to effectively follow
these steps. This is assuming that the culture of the company is
one that is supportive of its employees as they fit into the role
that drives change. This also assumes that the company leaders
provide a safe space for employees to adapt to change and share
ideas. If you consider Hofstede’s cultural value dimensions,
specifically individualism, uncertainty avoidance and power
distance, Kotter’s change model risks falling apart (Messner,
2021). If a company falls in a dimension that is more autocratic
in nature, then the employees may expect leaders to drive
change from the top down and they simply accept the change,
without providing any feedback or input upwards. If
individualism is a natural trait, then each person may be
thinking of how they drive change independe ntly, which could
break down a team environment. Uncertainty avoidance could
derail or significantly slow down change management efforts, as
the adjustment may take precedence over business needs. In
these scenarios, different priorities and techniques may be
required to move the company through change. Generating a
sense of urgency may take different forms, whether its through
incentives, leadership opportunities or rewards for initiating
change. A rules-based environment is one where work and
employee functions are all highly regulated and organized. A
principle-informing-rules environment is one that allows for
more innovation and ideation which is developed by
encouraging employees to dig deeper, drill down and work
through problems to address assumptions and solve business
challenges (Anand, 2019, pg. 64-65). To transition from rules-
13. based to principle-informing-rules environment would require
not only a cultural shift but a look at the functional shift in
terms of roles, people, and processes in the organization. Two
main obstacles would be limitations in skills and abilities of the
team members and the inability to implement change in a
methodical manner. Additionally, if an organization is looking
for creativity and ideation to propel their business, rules are apt
to put people and enterprising individuals in a box.
