This is an example:
Workplace diversity refers to the variety of differences between
people in an organization. Workplace diversity is about

Final Project Guidelines
Consultation Strategy Action Plan
To achieve a successful project experience and outcome for this
course, you will create
an original consultation strategy and action plan that brings
together key concepts and
methods to diagnose and address problems or issues identified
in a specific case study.
To do this, you will first select one of four case studies as the
focus of your consultation
model. For your Final Project, you incorporate insights from
this course in an
examination of a case study using as a basis topics related to
consulting for
organizational change profiled in Weeks 2 through 11.
Submit the Final Project in the form of a 10- to 14-page paper.
After reading the full case studies, select one to be the focus of
your Final Project.
After you identify a specific case study for your project focus,
your Final Project will
include the following sections:
Section 1: Consultation Strategy

4. Identify which case study you selected by number. Then,
develop a consultation
strategy to address the problems and/or issues identified in the
case study.
Include in your strategy the following:
that indicate that
you are a good fit for the organization (e.g., practitioner traits
and
characteristics, areas of expertise, experience)
order to present
the company and/or individual consulting skills
that you develop that will clarify the
consultation process
based on a needs assessment
Section 2: Intervention Action Plan
Include in your plan the following:
to
determine/diagnose the issues
implement based on
your assessment(s) and why you chose these interventions

5. -by-step implementation action plan that includes
milestones and
timelines
iption of ethical dilemmas that could arise during the
consultation and
strategies to address the dilemmas

interventions (i.e.,
evaluate the success of the interventions)
You will support your consultation strategy and action plan with
evidence-based
research from readings from this course and additional
theoretical, empirical, and
professional literature.
Case Studies (Select One)
Case 1: A Manufacturing Company With Quality Problems in
Their Manufacturing
Process
McDoogle Manufacturing Company is a subsidiary of a large,
multinational corporation.
It was founded by Nick McDoogle in the early 1980s as a small
niche manufacturing
company with one client and specific expertise in making

6. electronic components for
extrusion molding.
Nick had worked for a larger company, but when he realized he
could replicate the
technology for the marketplace, he borrowed money from the
bank and went to work for
himself. He was so successful that in 2004 he sold the company
to a larger international
company that specialized in manufacturing electronic
components for various
applications, although his company was able to keep its name.
Since it was acquired, McDoogle Manufacturing has been
having consistent problems
meeting the quality standards its customers require. Many
clients are complaining about
the compatibility of parts with their current systems. After
having done a good deal of
analysis of the problem, McDoogle has decided that technology
is NOT the problem.
McDoogle Manufacturing has asked your consulting firm, which
specializes in
organizational assessment and intervention, to help find a
solution to the problem.
Case 2: A Large High-Tech Company With Underperforming
Sales Functions
Molecular Electronics is a large, high-tech company with more
than 1,000 employees
located in Japan. The company has been in business since 2008.
The staff is
composed of many educated individuals with a variety of high-
tech skill sets. They are
seeking a consultant to address an issue that is impacting the

7. success of the
organization: an underperforming sales team.
The CEO is concerned that with the numbers she is receiving
from the sales team,
some team members will miss their quota for the year. The
consulting firm/practitioner
will need to diagnose what is causing the issues with the sales
team. Is it a training
issue? Motivation/compensation issue? Performance problem?
The consulting
firm/practitioner will then need to propose an intervention to
address the problem(s).
Case 3: A Nonprofit Organization with an Overly Controlling
Chief Executive Officer
© 2015 Laureate Education, Inc. Page 3 of 4
Services for the Lost is a $15 million nonprofit organization.
Their charter is to serve a
segment of the community that experiences serious and
persistent mental illness. They
were founded by a group of parents whose children were
diagnosed with schizophrenia
and bipolar disorder. The parents felt that they had nowhere to
go to find services for
their children, so they formed a 501(c)(3) and founded Services
for the Lost.
The organization is funded primarily by medical assistance and
county funding. It
started with one staff member and three social workers and has

8. grown over the past 20
years to a $15 million budget, with 32 social workers and a
support staff of over 90. It
serves over 400 clients a year and owns and operates two drop-
in centers. It leases
over 60 apartments for its clients. It currently employs two full-
time psychiatrists and
four nurses who offer medical consultation and general health
care.
When founded, the organization was a collection of people who
simply wanted to help.
With the amazing growth of their programs, the organization
was forced to hire an
executive director (ED) who led the organization for over 12
years. After an interim ED
was appointed for almost a year, a permanent ED, Julie, was
hired approximately 14
months ago.
When Julie was hired, things looked optimistic. She had a great
deal of experience with
administrating government-funded programs and had a resume
rich with examples of
success and growth experience. She also received “glowing”
reviews from her staff.
In the past 3 months, however, her behavior has become more
and more controlling.
Her staff is complaining about being micromanaged, and major
decisions are being
delayed because she wants to be involved in any “major”
decision. Her funding sources
are starting to question the organization’s effectiveness because
the organization
cannot seem to meet the demands of its clients. And the

9. organization is having trouble
justifying its costs to their county funders.
The consulting firm/practitioner’s assignment will be to develop
a process to intervene
with the organization at the ED level. The practitioner’s
engagement is being funded by
the Board of Directors, who feel the situation has moved beyond
its ability to intervene.
The directors will replace the ED if they have to, but they
would like to modify her
behavior and keep her on staff.
Case 4: A Family Business With an Underqualified Chief
Executive Officer
Snap-It Plumbing is a small, family-owned business that has
been in operation for the
last 17 years. They provide plumbing services in Minneapolis,
Minnesota. It was
founded by Frank Howard, who is the CEO of the company. As
his business has grown,
he has had his two brothers and a daughter join the business.
His son does the
bookkeeping and his wife schedules appointments.
Frank had been very successful up to 2003, when his business
received an award from
the local community about the great customer service that Snap-
It Plumbing provided.
© 2015 Laureate Education, Inc. Page 4 of 4
Since then, Frank has not been successful in running his

10. business. He has had many
customer complaints and plumbing jobs that are not getting
fixed properly. The
expenses that his plumbing company has had to extend are often
excessive, which
takes money out of the company’s profits. His two brothers
often fight with one another,
and he has not been successful with working with his wife on
how to best schedule
everyone's time.
You have been hired to be the consulting firm/practitioner who
will work with them to
find a solution to the company’s problems. The CEO of the
company is underqualified
and hasn't been able to make the organization a continued
success due to its growth.
The Final Project is due by Day 7 of Week 11.
