Supporting Document 2: Resistance Risk Mitigation Intervention Table

Overview

Using the same scenario from Identifying the Organizational Learning Issue, you realize that transitioning your organization to a learning environment may not be as easy as first imagined. You have encountered several resistance issues relating to the culture, psychological learning, organization structure, workforce commitment, and dissemination of knowledge. You decide to gather a decision-making team to assist in identifying the high or moderate resistance risks that may stop or slow down the process of this transition. The decision-making team must also recommend some mitigation intervention to lower the identified resistance risks to either moderate or low. For example, a high resistance risk can become moderate or low and moderate resistance risk can become low.
Your final product will be a table that identifies five issues related to the organization’s culture, psychological learning, organization structure, workforce commitment, and dissemination of knowledge. You must also provide a description of each resistance issue and rate the resistance risk before the mitigation intervention as either High (H) or Moderate (M). Then, you must provide a description of your team’s mitigation intervention and determine the resistance risk’s downgrade from High (H) to Moderate (M) or Low (L) and/or Moderate (M) to Low (L) after the mitigation intervention.

Instructions

Create a table in which you:

  1. Determine one challenge in the culture that may cause a major resistance to the transition from individual learning to organizational learning. Next, recommend one mitigation intervention to downgrade the identified resistance in your table. Provide a rationale for your selected mitigation intervention.
  2. Predict one psychological learning threat that may result from the transition and then provide one mitigation intervention to downgrade the identified resistance in your table. Provide a rationale for your selected mitigation intervention.
  3. Assess the current organization structure as it relates to the free flow of knowledge, then specify one issue that may cause a major resistance to the transition. Provide one mitigation intervention to downgrade the identified resistance in your table. Provide a rationale for your selected mitigation intervention.
  4. Critique the workforce commitment to this transition and predict one major resistance you may encounter. Next, provide a mitigation intervention to downgrade the identified resistance in your table. Provide a rationale for your selected mitigation intervention.
  5. Propose one dissemination of knowledge issue with the recipients’ ability to absorb the knowledge and comprehend it into action (that is, motivating the recipient to share knowledge). Next, provide one mitigation intervention to downgrade the identified resistance in your table. Provide a rationale for your selected mitigation intervention.
  6. Use the Resistance Risk Mitigation Intervention Table template located here. You may also use Microsoft Word or other equivalent software to create a table in an equivalent format for this supporting document.

The specific course learning outcome associated with this assignment is:

  • Create a table to identify transition resistance risks and an intervention to mitigate each.

WHAT ARE THE MAJOR STEPS IN THE CONCEPTUALIZATION STAGE OF HEALTH SERVICES RESEARCH?

Theme#1: Defined by the UMUC:
A literature review is a survey of the scholarly work in a particular subject area.  Use scholarly, peer reviewed, or refereed journals in your research. How do I know what a scholarly source is?  Review this UMUC link for clarification:  https://www.umuc.edu/library/libhow/scholarlyjournals.cfm
Defined by the UNC-Chapel Hill:
A literature review discusses published information in a particular subject area, and sometimes information in a particular subject area within a certain time period (within the past 5-7 years is preferred in our course).  A literature review can be just a simple summary of (scholarly) sources.
Why do we write literature reviews? 
Literature reviews provide you with a handy guide to a particular topic. If you have limited time to conduct research, literature reviews can give you an overview or act as a stepping stone. For professionals, they are useful reports that keep them up to date with what is current in the field. For scholars, the depth and breadth of the literature review emphasizes the credibility of the writer in his or her field. Literature reviews also provide a solid background for a research paper’s investigation. Comprehensive knowledge of the literature of the field is essential to most research papers.

HSA 500Demographic Distribution, Mortality Trends, and Access to Health Care Services.Analyze the growing consumer demographics in a diverse U.S. society in terms of consumer satisfaction with health care services, and provide a rationale for the use of present health services in todays diverse demographical social framework. (This is an interesting topic and I look forward to the discussion. The United States is a diverse country and one size does not fit all. For example, in Florida the demographics are older folks, whereas Alaska, the demographics are diverse and very rural).Analyze the demands and growing trends in new diseases (e.g., heart disease and cancer) affecting the present U.S. population. Summarize the impact of these demands on available health services. (There are too many examples to list for this discussion. I look forward to hearing your thoughts. The one demand on health care that is in the media is Ebola and the respiratory virus that has killed several children. There is also the swine flu, sexually transmitted disease, chronic disease).Analyze the mortality trends in the U.S. and compare the demographic distribution associated with these trends. Evaluate the importance of societys role in promoting a healthy lifestyle, as well as adopting lifestyle choices.(This will be an interesting discussion. For example, in the 1950s before the polio vaccine was discovered, most children either died or had a physical impediment. I look forward to the discussion.)
