Every organization wants to be successful and create a strong impact in society. To continue in the upward desired trend, organizations need to analyze current practices in place and identify areas for potential growth and development. It is imperative that critical analysis takes place at both the employee and organizational levels which can be completed by performing a needs assessment (Canada, 2020). A needs assessment is a simple tool, with five different styles, which is to guide an organization in identifying any gaps between organization expectations and available resources that are preventing desired goals to be achieved. Outcomes of the needs assessment will present current problems and opportunities, provide data, insight, and generate justification for decision making. This paper will discuss use of a strategic needs assessment, followed with a proposal to incorporate jobs into an organization that are deemed important according to the needs assessment and conclude with an overview of processes made.
This writer chose to critically analyze the Stabilization and Crisis Intervention Unit, an organization affiliated with the State of Oregon by conducting a strategic needs assessment. This writer implemented the SWOT method (S-strength, W-weakness, O-opportunity, T-threats) to analyze five internal departments and their functions, employment needs within, jobs and tasks completed by departments, and current personal trainings that each department held (Sleezer, 2014).. Please see attached needs assessment matrix. Results from the strategic needs assessment indicated that is essential to put energy into an upgrade of current technological process within the organization and develop critical education opportunities for staff and generate a solid charting system for the nurses to continue impacting the needs of the community into the future.
In Conclusion, use of a strategic needs assessment appears to address the performance processes that are allied with SACU’s core strategies for long term success and opportunities. Creating a computer program and designating someone to follow educational gaps and create programs to resolve them would be an overall success for SACU. Providing the ability to decrease the workload on the nurses would allow for more time spent with the individuals served. House managers would have day to day operations easier tracked and allow for education classes on strategic development. Human resources could provide extra training on ways to ensure personnel adhere to policies and procedures. Placement would have access to a much-needed tracking system, and the IT department would have access .

Designing and Sustaining Large-Scale Value-Centered Agile Ecosystems (powered...Alexey Krivitsky
Is Agile dead? It depends on what you mean by 'Agile'. If you mean that the organizations are not getting the promised benefits because they were focusing too much on the team-level agile "ways of working" instead of systemic global improvements -- then we are in agreement. It is a misunderstanding of Agility that led us down a dead-end. At Org Topologies, we see bright sparks -- the signs of the 'second wave of Agile' as we call it. The emphasis is shifting towards both in-team and inter-team collaboration. Away from false dichotomies. Both: team autonomy and shared broad product ownership are required to sustain true result-oriented organizational agility. Org Topologies is a package offering a visual language plus thinking tools required to communicate org development direction and can be used to help design and then sustain org change aiming at higher organizational archetypes.

number of applications affects selectivity (GMAT, GPA and Acceptance

• How are our scholarships being used in the admissions process? What
actions can we implement to impact yield?
• We are doing a good job in placing our students within 3 months of
graduation, but why is our salary and bonus below benchmark average? Is
it a function of the types of profiles we admit/their career objectives (i.e.
non profit)? Or is it a function of the types of companies we attract?
• Can we increase capacity (total number of students)? Can this be affecting
our attractiveness with recruiters?

Editor's Notes
Alignment of strategic initiatives, goals and operating decisions is increasingly imperative in today’s fiscally and competitively challenged environment for MBA and graduate management programs.
At the core of this complex issue is institutionalizing a structured approach that focuses organizational, functional and individual efforts in a strategically appropriate and consistent direction.
This approach involves identifying mutually agreed upon targets, performance objectives and value proposition related metrics and utilizing the analytics and information that emerge from these to ensure congruence between actions, decisions, managerial efforts and even rewards for exceptional commitment and performance.
This session will present frameworks and explore how external and third party “reference” and comparative data such as rankings can be utilized to enhance both operational and strategic resource allocation decisions within MBA and graduate management programs.
