Discussion 1 : Sometimes things go wrong and its not always a bad thing. Define and discuss the concept of productive failure. Discuss a time in your organizations history (or an organization you are familiar with) when a change process failed. Explain the situation and what was learned in the process. Why do some organizations fail but become stronger while others fail to recover?
Discussion 2 :While change is inevitable in most organizations, there is a difference between change that is superficial and embedded sustaining change. Drawing from this weeks lecture and readings, discuss the processes for successfully implementing and sustaining change. Provide examples that are designed to help make change stick and apply at least one of the examples to an organizational change with which you are familiar.
