Organizational Analysis Assignment
This multi-part group assignment is designed to allow you to apply the terms, concepts, and practices described in the readings.  Early in the semester you will be assigned to a group of about 4 students.  As a group, you will then need to identify a public or nonprofit organization with 10 or more paid employees.  It cannot be an organization that you or any of your group members have worked for or done an internship with.  You will then need to identify an individual within that organization to interview at some length and obtain all of the data needed to complete each of the assignments described in detail at the hyperlinks below.  The individual should be a relatively new employee but be outside of their probationary periods.  Since it may take some time to coordinate your schedules and conduct an interview, I suggest getting started well in advance of when the first assignment is due.
In terms of picking an organization, I would recommend choosing an organization that is of some interest to you in terms of possible future employment.  I would also suggest interviewing someone who has the type of job you desire upon graduation or one of the jobs you aspire to.  If you are having trouble identifying a suitable individual/organization, I would recommend contacting one of alumni or community advisory board members.  Many would be happy to help out or direct you to an appropriate employee.
