Step 1
In the beginning of this course, you submitted a scholarly, peer-reviewed article for approval. For this research
paper, you will discuss the importance of that article in regards to organizational behavior while using the
problem-solving, integrative framework learned in Chapter 1. With your organizational problem, provide the
following information:

1. Brief summary of the organization.
2. Synopsis of the organizational challenges (Step 1 on the problem-solving approach)
   • What is the major overriding issue?
   • Provide the facts and examples to support the explanation of the problem.
   • Discuss key issues that merit the discussion.
3. Who are the various individuals and what part do they play? (Step 2 on the problem-solving approach)
   • What challenges, threats, or opportunities do they pose?
   • Explain the role of leadership in the situation.
   • Provide any environmental issues that should be considered.
   As you discuss these areas to address the first portion of the problem-solving framework, provide examples
   and research to support your discussion.
   Step 2
   Now that you have laid the foundation of the problem, explain how the theory you researched applies. Provide
   in depth analysis with your article as the main evidence.
4. Explain the author’s current view on the chosen organizational theory and how it relates to your problem.
5. Provide key indicators that the author applies from theory to the concept in organizational behavior.
6. Discuss what you believe are the most relevant portions of the article that tie the theory and concepts with
   your organizational issue to create an explanation for the problem. In other words, if you had to explain the
   organizational issue to someone, how would you relate it to what the author has stated?
   Step 3
   The final process (Step 3) in the problem-solving framework is recommendations. Based on your research, use
   this final step to provide recommendation plans for the problem. Do you want to resolve, solve, or dissolve the
   problem? Consider the consequences as well for the plan of action in your recommendation. Use well-thoughtout ideas and research to support your plan. Describe where you see your personality style fitting into your
   recommendation for the organization to make your plan work, to tie in the previous papers. Apply what you
   have learned through Scripture, describing how the Lord can utilize your strengths to implement the recommendation plan.
