PowerPoint Presentation

Create a PowerPoint presentation introducing leaders and other stakeholders at your chosen organization to the problem of practice you identified and your analysis of causes embedded in the organization.

As a leader, you must make well-informed decisions to lead an organization effectively. When it comes to leading change initiatives, the same rule applies. You must be well-informed and have data to support change initiatives. However, collecting relevant data is only one important step in the change management process. You also need effective data analysis tools to analyze and present the data. You may elect to utilize analyses such as a force field analysis or a fishbone diagram. The type of analysis used depends upon the type of data collected.

With this assessment, you will explore some of the data analysis tools and techniques needed to present data for a change-management initiative.
