After analyzing the scenario presented in CapraTek: Leading for Change, create a presentation that briefly introduces items for your team to consider. In the presentation: Communicate your decision on how you
plan to address the team's communication issues and concerns about leadership changes. (2-3 slides or 1-1.5 minutes). o This should be an appropriate response to the scenario based on a sound analysis of the situation. Explain three critical communication issues and challenges faced by the team, including communication issues to date. (2-3 slides or 1-1.5 minutes). • Describe an action or policy that you will introduce to improve communications and assure people are working with a unified purpose. (2-3 slides or 1-1.5 minutes) o You may want to consider Tuckman's model for stages of group development and Kotter's change model as you plan to improve the team dynamics. Define your expectations for ethical discourse in team communications. (2-3 slides or 1-1.5 minutes) If you choose to submit a standard PowerPoint presentation, your presentation should consist of 10-12 slides, not including the title and references slides. Use the speaker's notes section within the PowerPoint slides to provide all the information relevant to each slide, which you would otherwise present verbally. If you choose to submit a video (Kaltura) or narrated (PowerPoint) presentation, the recorded presentation should be 4-5 minutes. Before you start your work, carefully read the grading criteria in the Communicating a Team Vision Scoring Guide to ensure you understand all of the requirements for success./n Menu Introduction Given the fast pace of change in just about every industry today, one of the most important ways that leaders communicate is by leading for change. Leaders who are effective at this task do a good job of communicating what the change will be (or already is), how that change will affect both the company and its employees, and what employees need to know in order to get the resources they need to respond appropriately and feel that their contributions are an important part of the change. In this activity, you'll see how change comes up and how a new leader - you! -responds to it. = Menu Mystery meeting???
