The specific requirement for this paper is for you to discuss how the principles and concepts presented in the textbook relate to the "Eight Stages" in Kotter''s book "Leading Change," thus integrating the two books. The purpose of the paper is for you to demonstrate that you understood the interrelationships between the practices espoused in Leading Change and the more "academic" information introduced in the textbook. You should include a cover page – consisting of the course name and section designator, your name, instructor’s name, and date - an introduction or abstract, and a conclusion. The integrative paper must be organized around the eight stages in Kotter''s Leading Change book, with each stage discussed in a separate, clearly identified section of the paper (e.g., "Stage 1, Establishing a Sense of Urgency"). For each of Kotter''s eight stages (or the associated eight errors), discuss how the specific concepts discussed in the Ivancevich, Konopaske and Matteson textbook support or contradict that specific stage (or error). Points will be deducted if you fail to follow this format. However, given that there are so many principles and concepts that you could relate to Kotter''s book, the key is to identify and discuss only the most important concepts that are relevant to the specific theme or error. Your grade for this paper will be based on how well you met three criteria: ·The number of relevant principles and concepts you identified for each stage or error, ·The quality of your reasoning about how the principles and concepts in the textbook relate to the stages in Kotter''s book, and ·The quality of your writing and presentation (including the quality of any tables, figures, or diagrams)
