OGL563 Dynamics of Social Change in Firms
Fall A, 2021
The final project for the course is an analytical research paper that focuses on the organizational and leadership dynamics of a social change organization of your choice.
When choosing the organization, you want to examine it can be either an organization that you have personally participated (or are participating) in, or it can be an organization (contemporary or historical) you are familiar with through reading.
By “analytical research paper,” I mean that the purpose of this paper is for you to provide an in- depth analysis of the organization of your choosing.
In providing that analysis, you will draw on readings from this class, outside literature researched on your own (please use a minimum of five academic sources that are not included on our syllabus), and (depending on your engagement with the organization) your personal experience.
If you are writing about an organization, you did not personally work within, you will also likely need to do some reading (or potentially interview members) about the organization’s history to be able to respond to the sections (below).
The format of the paper will follow Michael Brown’s process for building and strengthening a community organization presented in Building Strong Community Organizations and the analysis of social change organizations discussed in From the Ground Up.
This paper will also require some self-reflection on social change organizations and the student’s leadership initiatives in bringing about positive change.
This paper is an analysis of an organization rather than, for example, a paper synthesizing research results or making an original argument. As such, it follows a relatively straightforward format (detailed below).
Each of the section headers (bold, in red) should be used verbatim as the section headers in your paper. Each section will also give specific instructions and a list of questions. The sections are intended to ensure that you focus your analysis on specific dimensions of the organization.
Although you will be writing in a narrative format, please make sure to respond to the questions (in bold) under each section header. However, because this is an analytical research paper you should not simply respond to the questions, but use the question as a guide in offering an analysis (in paragraph format) within each section.
Please note that some of the questions may be more or less difficult for you to answer depending on your personal experience with the organization (or they may be phrased in a way that implies you are working with the organization when you didn’t).
Please feel free to respond to “the spirit” of these questions and do your best to answer them given the information you have available and your positionality with the organization.
