In this final project, you will analyze the case study “Creating a Culture of Empowerment and Accountability at St. Martin de Porres High School” and develop an evaluative response paper. The case is an account of how St. Martin de Porres High School (SMdP) was transformed from a school plagued with student failure and high teacher turnover into a true learning organization carrying out its mission of serving “young people of limited options.” Your response paper will assess the strengths and weaknesses of the organization and propose solutions and strategies for transforming the organizational culture. 

This assessment will measure student competency with respect to the following course outcomes:

 Analyze the value of organizations’ internal and external communication strategies for their strength in fostering organizational cultures of customer service  Craft artifacts of organizational culture that promote diversity, enterprise, and brand stewardship through effective verbal and written presentations  Apply empowerment and autonomy models that foster employee talent, facilitate high-performance teams, and align well with the organizational culture  Propose strategic solutions for complex organizational conflict scenarios that align with organizational goals and culture and reflect systems-level decision-making  Develop change management plans that provide effective support for employees and maintain alignment to the values, mission, culture, and goals of organizations  Select appropriate approaches to managing different organizational cultures that reflect the values of an organization and are consistent with one’s ethical framework
