Change Leadership Development Report
Order Description
Assignment 1.2: Signature Assignment-Change Leadership Development Report (30 points)
Students will identify the change leadership roles needed to implement a transformational change in an organization and develop a Transformational Change Leadership Team (TCLT). Students will employ specific strategies and processes based on team development theory to build an effective team with high levels of trust, a shared purpose and accountability.
STEPS:
1) Complete Required Elements 1 and 2 PRIOR to officially creating your TCLT in Week #1 of the course.
2) Ask selected members if they are willing to serve on your TCLT (Required Element #3) no later than Week #2.
3) Conduct at least 2 meetings in Weeks 2-7 using the principles, strategies and processes you are learning in the course. Be sure to address Required Elements 4-10 during your meetings. Meeting agendas and minutes are required.
REQUIRED ELEMENTS:
1) Describe the preliminary transformational change that you hope to initiate in an organization.
2) Identify the leadership team roles you believe are needed to initiate change in an organization using Belbin 9 Team Roles: Chairman, Shaper, Plant, Monitor-Evaluator, Company Worker, Resource Investigator, Team Worker, and Completer-Finisher, Specialist (see attached). Explain why the role is needed on your team in relation to your Transformational Change Project (TCP) and the reasons you selected the individual to fill this role (use pseudonyms). Describe specifically the individual’s unique experiences, background, communication style, personality characteristics and cultural background that you value and will contribute to the team.

3) Ask selected members if they are willing to serve on your TCLT. Describe your process for ensuring their agreement and commitment to the team.

4) Explain the degree of diversity within the team and how it is supported by you as the leader. How will diversity serve the team and its tasks and goals moving forward?

5) How did you approach the authentic development of a Transformational Change Leadership Team (TCLT) based upon group development theory (relationship building, trust, norms, role assignment, and motivation). What specific methods and strategies did you use to build an effective team? What specific team builders did you use? Were they effective? Why or why not?
6) How did you create a common purpose? Vision? Norms/group processes?
7) How did you openly address the issue of trust within the team and what mechanisms did you put in place to ensure this remains a constant focus throughout the team’s work together?
8) What is the decision-making process for the team and how was it decided upon?
9) How did you foster the development of mechanisms to ensure the team has a clear accountability process and actively uses it to hold team members accountable for behavior and results?
10) Describe your plan for ensuring and enabling the team to not only “course-correct”, but do so in an effective, efficient fashion that supports the overall goal for the team and the desired change. This includes ensuring there are strategies to facilitate team interventions to address dysfunctional group behavior and facilitate appropriate interventions if/when they occur.

**Your report should be between 10-15 pages in length and must be written in a proper academic, APA style and format. Valid sources should be used to support your assertions and be properly cited in text and the reference page. Charts and figures should also be used to support the written narrative. Include meeting agendas and minutes for each of your meetings as Appendices. You are also encouraged to include your team’s vision statement, norms and/or other activities.
