Examine strategic planning, succession planning, leadership developing strategies, and diversity in organizational settings.
Conduct an organizational audit/environmental scan addressing issues that impact organizational effectiveness.
Design a strategic plan, systems, and processes that address the issues that impact the performance of an organization.
Include the summary of how your topic and visualization could be used in strategic planning, leadership development strategy, or diversity in organizations, and how you might use the topic to teach on conducting an organizational audit, performing an environmental scan, how to improve organizational effectiveness, conducting a strategic planning, system thinking, or process improvement. Also include how it affects current organizational issues, practices in organizational learning, leadership development, and current psychological theory.
