Learning Outcomes The Learner will:- 1. Understand how to apply solutions to organisational change 2. Understand how to develop a change strategy using implementation models 3. Understand how to analyse an organisational response to change 4. Be able to evaluate the impact of change strategies |
Task 1 | Assessment Criteria | Pass/Refer | Comments |
Identify at least three models or frameworks that can be used to address organisational change. Critically evaluate how these change models can be used to help meet organisational objectives and resolve change challenges. By referring to an example of a situation where your organisation has undergone change, identify the criteria that you would use to select the most appropriate change implementation model for this particular scenario. Identify and justify the change solutions for this scenario that help achieve organisational objectives. Apply a range of creative problem solving techniques can be used to address change challenges. Guideline word count: 1,300 – 1,500 words |
A.C. 1.1 – Identify a range of organisational change, models or frameworks |
PASS | An appropriate range of models is identified and discussed in some detail |
A.C. 2.1 – Evaluate a range of change implementation models |
REFER | The Marker is unable to find the response to this AC where a range of implementation models is explicitly evaluated. |
|
A.C. 2.2 – Identify the criteria to select a change implementation model that supports organisational change |
REFER | The Marker is unable to locate the response to this AC. An explicit response that identifies specific selection criteria for a model to support organisational change is required. |
|
A.C.1.2 – Apply a range of creative problem solving techniques to address change challenges |
REFER | The Marker is unable to locate the response to this AC. A number of problem solving techniques are identified but it is not clear how these are applied to address change challenges. |
|
A.C. 1.3 – Identify and justify change solutions that link to organisational strategic plans |

Task 2 | Assessment Criteria | Pass/Refer | Comments |
By referring to examples, demonstrate how analytical tools can be used to monitor the progress and effect of change within an organisation. Assess monitoring and measurement techniques in resolving change challenges. Analyse key strategies involved in minimising the adverse effects of change on the organisation and recommend one strategy that has enabled you to resolve a challenging change issue within your organisation. Guideline word count: 850 – 1,000 words |
A.C. 3.1 – Demonstrate the use of analytical tools to monitor the progress and the effect of change |
REFER | The Marker is unable to locate a response to this AC. It may well be covered somewhere within the assignment but some clear mapping of the ACs is required. |
A.C. 3.2 – Assess monitoring and measurement techniques to change within an organisation |
REFER | As above. | |
A.C. 3.3 – Analyse strategies to minimise adverse effects of change |
REFER | As above. |
Task 3 | Assessment Criteria | Pass/Refer | Comments |
By referring to a situation where change has occurred within your organisation, identify the processes used to effectively review the impact of the change. Demonstrate how results of the impact review are analysed and present the findings of the change strategies within this scenario in meeting organisational objectives. Guideline word count: 850 – 1,000 words |
A.C. 4.1 – Identify the processes to review the impact of the change |
REFER | As above. |
A.C. 4.2 – Analyse the results of the impact review |
REFER | As above. | |
A.C. 4.3 – Present the findings of the impact review |
REFER | As above. |
This is an exceptionally difficult assignment to mark due to the way it has been structured. Remember that the ACs must be clearly and fully addressed in order to achieve the Learning Outcomes for the Unit so they should either be used as sub-headings or some clear mapping included as to where the response to each AC can be found. You also need to ensure that you explicitly respond to the instructional verb stated in the AC so that you clearly “identify”, “evaluate”, “apply”, “assess”, etc., as appropriate. The Bibliography provides evidence of wider reading but you should always acknowledge the work or ideas of others by references within the text of your assignment, otherwise there is a danger that you could be accused of plagiarism. Please do not be disheartened by this feedback as there appears to be some good work included in your assignment but you need to present it more clearly to reflect the Assessment Criteria so that the Marker can identify individual responses. Please resubmit taking these comments into account. |
