You have been planning your needs assessment project for quite a few weeks now, and you undoubtedly have some idea of how you believe the problem you selected will be solved.
Based on the course texts and on the articles you located in this unit’s studies:
1. Analyze the differences and similarities in making the MOC plan happen from the perspectives of the individual, organization, and society.
2. What role could the public sector, its citizenry, governments, regulations, systems, practices, and processes play in planning for the change management based on the needs-based action learning model for program planning, as well as
type of decision made and who it may affect?
3. What does this mean for public sector solutions to society’s problems,
either the big ones or the small?
4. In your post, consider how KTA intervention framework or perhaps another suitable framework can be used in the facilitation of your needs-based action learning of program or project planning, implementation, monitoring, and performance evaluation processes.
5. Reflecting on your public needs assessment project, what modification should be made to your MOC plan?
6. Remember that you will need to specify the needs-based action learning model for program planning and action intended to be taken, the purpose of that action including who or what it is meant to change, the time frame in which it needs to occur, materials and directions, and the areas where it applies in your project. You will later incorporate this into your final assignment in the course, so paying attention to the feedback you receive from your instructor and peers will be
important in making the final revision for submission in the next unit.
Article Search
In preparation for the discussion in this unit, locate at least three articles from peer-reviewed sources on change management as it pertains to individual, organizational, and societal changes at the intersection of government and the
community. As examples, government wants to change public’s behavior related to smoking cigarettes or businesses’ behaviors of polluting the environment. In the unit discussion, you will define some individual, organizational, and
societal strategies for the project you are planning for this course. You can use the Databases A–Z library guide for searching the articles.
