Application Paper See evaluation form

Conduct a diagnosis of an actual work team of which you were or are now  a part, first by  using the five criteria (enabling conditions) identified by Hackman.  I then expect you to highlight your findings with significant  amplified insights gleaned from Thompson. You must demonstrate you have read and applied insights from both books.

Describe the interventions you think are necessary to effect positive changes in the team. Summarize the expert learning that the group members must acquire for these change to occur.

Much of your grade will be based upon the quality of your presentation. See On Writing

If you prefer to write a different kind of application paper, submit a proposal by the fourth class for approval. The paper must demonstrate you ability to diagnose a work team.
