Driving Change or Emerging During Change?

/in /by

Research and discuss if based on your research if vision drives change or does vision emerge from the

organizational change process (Palmer, Dunford, & Buchanan, 2016, p. 201)?
The mere essence for the need for a vision, no matter the objective challenges the status quo and thus

creates change.
Next, discuss if vision contributes or hinders the change process (Palmer et al., 2016, p. 201)?
Third, design a new vision statement for your organization (or one of your choice) keeping in mind what

you have been learning.
Finally, discuss the “difference between sustaining and disruptive innovation, and explain the practical

implications of this distinction for change management” (Palmer et al., 2016, p. 165).

1950’s Television Shows: Perception and Reality

/in /by

For this week’s DB, your assignment is to watch some television. Well, 1950s television, that is! You are

going to need to view one of the popular television shows from the 1950s. There are a lot of options

available, and you can choose which show and episode, and view them on youtube.com, or wherever you

might locate them.
Some of the more popular shows:
Father Knows Best (1954-1960)
Leave it to Beaver (1957-63)
I Love Lucy (1951-57)
The Honeymooners (1955-56)
The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet (1952-66)
There is a tendency for many people to rather uncritically accept the TV shows of the 1950s as accurately
depicting American life in that era.
Use the first paragraph to identify the show, episode title, date of release, and a brief summary of the

program you watched.

Smuggling “Technology”

/in /by

Smugglers use a variety of “technologies” to evade
detection. Describe smuggling technologies (also known as techniques, methods,
schemes, etc.) and how these technologies evolve in response to law enforcement
actions. Be creative and be specific because a technology for smuggling exotic pets is
probably very different than the technology for smuggling intellectual property.

Use this reading as a resource: read the introduction and conclusions, but don’t spend too much time on

the details, unless they interest you.

and deconstructing the British government’s cigarette smuggling discourse ” in Trends in Organized

Pay attention to the lessons learned, especially how smuggling differs from stereotype accounts in fiction.
