Performance Psychology (Interviewing key stakeholders in Moneyball)

As part of this course, you will apply the principles described in this class in evaluating a potential performance consulting opportunity. This will be a hypothetical case example in which you will demonstrate a) an anthropological approach to consulting and identifying concerns; b) analysis of the specified consulting context; and c) strategies for implementing change within that consulting context.
You will be using the organization from the movie Moneyball as the hypothetical consulting context.
Using the organization from the movie Moneyball, you will be required to review the movie at least twice. Since the movie follows the organization of the Oakland A’s over a span of time, your analysis will need to clarify at which phase of the movie you are assessing the system (it changes over the course of the movie). For the portion of the project that involves interviewing individuals, you will be required to imagine how the specific characters from the movie would respond to interview questions.
