The Rational Approach Model vs. Other Change Management Models

Using your organization, Post a cohesive response based on your analysis of the Learning Resources and your professional experience. Be sure to discuss the following:

• Categorize the type of change that you have proposed for your organization and provide evidence for this categorization using the Mathur (2013) article.
• Identify which of the Graetz & Smith (2010) philosophies of change match your perspective of change.
• Compare how these different approaches to change relate to or differ from the Rational Approach Model within the context of your proposed change.
• Apply the identified philosophies to your proposed change. Analyze how well they “fit” the type of change that is being proposed, and identify any areas of weakness you have found within your proposed change.
• Conclude whether an approach, other than the Rational Approach Model, might better fit your organization and your proposed change. If not, explain how the Rational Approach Model is most appropriate in this instance.
