NURS 6053 Walden Wk11 Change Implementation and Management Plan
Assignment: Change Implementation and Management Plan
This is one of the most cliche clichés, but it still sounds like the truth.
The only constant is change. As a nurse, you know that the pace of change in healthcare is unrivaled and that success in healthcare requires the ability to adapt to change.
As a professional, you are called upon to share, inform, educate and advocate your expertise. Your efforts in these areas will help guide others through change. This task proposes organizational changes and presents a high-level plan for implementing the proposed changes.
To Prepare:
- Review the Resources and identify one change that you believe is called for in your organization/workplace.
- This may be a change necessary to effectively address one or more of the issues you addressed in the Workplace Environment Assessment you submitted in Module 4. It may also be a change in response to something not addressed in your previous efforts. It may be beneficial to discuss your ideas with your organizational leadership and/or colleagues to help identify and vet these ideas.
- Reflect on how you might implement this change and how you might communicate this change to organizational leadership.
The Assignment (5-6-minute narrated PowerPoint presentation):
Change Implementation and Management Plan
Create a narrated PowerPoint presentation of 5 or 6 slides with video that presents a comprehensive plan to implement the change you propose.
