Your work with UWEAR and PALEDENIM is coming to a close.

As you reflect on the following final deliverable, you realize that the new values-driven culture, including the code of conduct, represents just part of the change faced by the organizations. Other areas of change include work roles, reporting structure, and key business processes.

The CEOs would like you to recommend a change strategy and process for Theresa and Mike to follow.

Review the scenario for this course, revise Part 1 of the Key Assignment based on your instructor’s feedback, and add an additional 200–500 words to the executive report that addresses the following:

• What change management model (such as Lewin’s, Kotter’s, or ADKAR) should be used, and why?
• What are the set of steps used in the model you chose?
• What can the CEO’ do to address resistance to change during the merger?

For the purpose of this assignment, imagine that you are employed as a compensation specialist by an organization. You have been asked by your human resources (HR) director to develop a PowerPoint presentation for your corporation’s board of directors in which you will propose a compensation survey that will help to determine the organization’s pay structure.

In your presentation, you should explain to the board why a compensation survey is needed, how it will be conducted, and how it will help determine a pay structure of your choice for the organization.

Your presentation should consist of at least 10 slides, not counting the title slide and reference slide(s). Be sure to cite and reference any sources used, including your textbook, using APA formatting.

Final Exam

In our midterm assignment, we looked at four investments and discussed the types of investors who may or may not be appropriate for each selection. Now we will do the opposite by attempting to find appropriate investment selections for given individuals. Consider the following individuals:

· 65 year old widow with social security as only income and 300k retirement account.

· New small business owner at 28 with a 6 month emergency fund covered who is just starting to invest inside and outside retirement vehicles.

· Couple, both of whom are 45 with 12 year old daughter. Full time earners at 210k a year combined. 350k in retirement combined with emergency fund covered. Maxing 401k already. Willing and able to invest further outside of retirement funds.

· One individual or couple designed by the author whose personal situation differs from the three listed above.

The above scenarios are not “complete” pictures but are a good step in the process of completing topical financial plans. State a few investment products that may be appropriate as well as some that may not be as well as why this is the case. Consider at least one other area of financial planning (insurance, tax, estate planning, general topics, retirement planning) that may have an effect on investment decisions.

The successful submission will clearly and concisely describe suitable investments for the scenarios listed based on the limited information. (Consider that these “may” be appropriate since we do not have all client information at this time.) Focus on suitability rather than technical features of specific products.

The requirements below must be met for your paper to be accepted and graded:

• Write between 1,250 – 1,750 words (approximately 3 – 5 pages) using Microsoft Word in APA style, see example below.
• Use font size 12 and 1” margins.
• Include cover page and reference page.
• At least 80% of your paper must be original content/writing.
• No more than 20% of your content/information may come from references.
• Cite all reference material (data, dates, graphs, quotes, paraphrased words, values, etc.) in the paper and list on a reference page APA style.

References must come from sources such as, scholarly journals found in EBSCOhost, CNN, online newspapers such as, The Wall Street Journal, government websites, etc. Sources such as, Wikis, Yahoo Answers, eHow, blogs, etc. are not acceptable for academic writing.
