Competencies
In this project, you will demonstrate mastery of the
following competencies:
Develop
a workforce
Propose
an operating plan
Justify
organizational change
Scenario
You are an HR consultant, contracted by the VP of an LLC in Wilmington,
Delaware, to solve their internal challenges. This U.S. office is a branch of a
larger Singaporean software solutions organization that has a total of 140
employees and generates $20M in revenue per year. The CEO of this organization,
headquartered in Singapore, wants to explore new markets in the United States,
gain access to new customers, diversify risk, leverage resources, and increase
profits.
Unfortunately, the newly formed U.S. branch has been facing
several problems from the beginning.
Employees
at the call center and the sales and marketing division are disengaged and
emotionally fatigued due to contradictory communication between the
branch’s leadership and the leadership at the Singaporean headquarters.
The
branch team members feel frustrated and undervalued as a result of
conflicting feedback from their VP and management team.
Messages
from leadership lack consistency, especially regarding policies and
practices related to human resources.
There
is no training for team members.
Communication
problems between the Singaporean headquarters and U.S. branch are
resulting in low employee morale.
Overall, the standard operating procedures (SOP) followed
successfully at the headquarters in Singapore could not be replicated at the
U.S. branch. As a result, the CEO’s vision of successfully furthering expansion
into the U.S. market remains unfulfilled.
Your goal as an HR consultant is to create a change
management toolkit that includes the following:
A
needs assessment or change readiness audit
An
organizational change management plan
A
change management communication plan
A
letter recommending strategies to ensure that the changes and their
benefits are retained
To create the toolkit, you will compile your work from
Milestones One and Two. So far, you have completed your change readiness audit
and created a change management plan. Now, you will share a presentation to
demonstrate your change management communication plan. This plan should include
your recommendations for workforce development techniques and how you plan to
communicate these to employees and leadership of the U.S. branch, as well as
leadership at the Singaporean headquarters.
It is not enough to implement change successfully; efforts
should also be made to sustain the change. You must also write an executive
letter to the VP of the U.S. branch, recommending strategies and best practices
to ensure that the changes are implemented and maintained.

Management Communication Plan Presentation
Submit a creative and polished PowerPoint presentation with
narration to share your change management communication plan. The communication
plan should include your recommendations for workforce development techniques
and how you plan to communicate these to the U.S. branch employees.
Specifically, you must address the following rubric
criteria:
Define
the audience by performing a target audience analysis. (slides
1–2)
Determine
core and audience-specific communication objectives and
messages, including appropriate tone. You may include the following
information (slides 3–4):
Discuss
goals of the communications campaign. You may consider the following
points:
Why
is this communication campaign needed?
What
are the essential topics to communicate to company leadership?
What
do front-line employees need to know as they experience and deal with
the impact of change?
How
will you convey need and urgency for change? Discuss What’s in It for
Me (WIIFM).
Use
a story or a graphic to connect with the change vision for success to
the communication plan.
Define
and communicate new performance expectations and what stakeholders need
to do to prepare for change.
Recommend
two workforce development techniques to support employees’
adaptation to change and build on existing skills and strengths. Consider
the following (slides 5–6):
What
do you want the employees of the U.S. branch to do differently?
How
should the organization’s leadership support employees during the
change, through training and development programs to address the gaps?
Determine
and review the best delivery channels for each communication
based on the target audience analysis. Select a minimum of three channels
as part of a multi-prong communication strategy. You may include the
following information (slides 7–8):
What
would be the communication timeline for delivery of all messages? Create
an outline.
How
often will the branch’s change initiators communicate with this
audience?
Outline
communication responsibilities and assignments. Who is responsible for
leading communications with this audience?
Include
your plan for a feedback loop to monitor and manage the
communication campaign. (slides 9–10)
Determine
metrics or key performance indicators (KPIs) to track the success of the
communication campaign.
Outline
how the metrics will be implemented and tracked through a feedback loop.
