This individual project will provide you with the opportunity to act as an Organizational Behavior Consultant.  You will identify a recent (or current) organizational problem/issue faced by a real-world organization within the past three years.  You will explain why the problem/issue is problematic and how it negatively impacts the effectiveness of the organization.  Then, you will propose a course of action by applying key principles, concepts, and theories of organizational behavior.  Finally, you will recommend follow-up actions (evaluations) for the organization to assess whether or not the problem/issue has been resolved. 

Remember that the primary focus of this research project is on your analysis of the problem/issue using organizational behavior principles, concepts, and theories, as well as your recommendation(s) for improving organizational effectiveness.  You should not simply provide an historical account of a problem/issue and the organization’s solution.  In fact, your recommendation(s) for addressing the problem/issue may or may not align with the organization’s previous (or proposed) course of action.

For this activity, use your research project outline and instructor feedback to develop a research paper , which incorporates the following

  • Introduction
  • Description of your selected organization, including its history, mission, values, structure, services/goods, culture, leadership, industry, or other information (as applicable)
  • Description and analysis of a recent (or current) organizational problem/issue using organizational behavior principles, concepts, and theories
  • Recommended action(s) for eliminating or changing the problem/issue to improve organizational effectiveness
  • Follow-up action(s) for evaluating the decision(s), assuming your recommendation(s) are accepted
  • Conclusion
  • References (include a minimum of three credible resources)



Your research project submission should be 6-8 pages in length (not including title and reference pages). Your assignment must follow APAstyle guidelines, using Times New Roman, 12-point font, double spaced, with one inch margins.
