This model should serve to implement a strategic process that can help your organization integrate a change and respond to the internal or external driving forces that affect organizational success.Create a visual representation of your model using a graphic organizer of your choice (flow chart, concept map, etc.). The design of your model will be unique and relevant to your organization, based on a critical analysis of its culture and behavior. However, your model must demonstrate the necessary steps for realistic implementation. Your model will be assessed on the quality of strategic implementation you design, the support you present for your model, and inclusion of the following concepts:Methods to evaluate the need for changeApproach and criteria for choosing individuals or teams necessary for a change initiativeCommunication strategiesStrategies to gather stakeholder support and overcome resistanceImplementation strategiesSustainability strategiesOnce you have created your model, prepare a 15-20 slide PowerPoint presentation to present your model and demonstrate how this model is relevant to your organization and why it will work well within your organization’s culture. In conclusion, discuss why this model will lead to sustainable change when most change initiatives fail. You will utilize this change model for your final paper.Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

not create a strong sense of purpose. Some persuasive
information is included

background, overuse of bold, or lack of appropriate
indentations of text.
Few outside sources were used to support the change model.
Limited research is apparent to provide support or rationale
for the change model.
Frequent and repetitive mechanical errors distract the
reader. Inconsistencies in language choice (register) or word
choice are present. Sentence structure is correct but not
varied.

some variation in type size, color, and layout of the graphic
design used.
The presentation slides are generally competent, but ideas
may show some inconsistency in organization or in their
relationships to each other.
The layout uses horizontal and vertical white space
appropriately. Sometimes the fonts are easy to read, but in a
few places the use of fonts, italics, bold, long paragraphs,
color, or busy background detracts and does not enhance
readability.
Research is adequate. Sources are standard in relevance,
quality of outside sources, or timeliness. General support and
rationale is presented for the change model.
Some mechanical errors or typos are present, but they are
not overly distracting to the reader. Correct and varied
sentence structure and audience-appropriate language are
employed.

style, although some formatting errors may be present.
