in this part of the ongoing case, i''d like you to take a look at feedback loops in your organization . there are many more feedback loops than we can hope to identify in a paper of this size, but try to identify at least one balancing loop and one reinforcing loop. draw on the background readings from this module in constructing your diagnosis. the ultimate goal of this assignment is to answer the following questions: describe at least two feedback loops in your organization and explain why you selected them. what are the effects of these feedback loops on organizational effectiveness over the short and long term? what are the opportunities for organizational learning that you can identify in light of your analysis? (in answering this question, take into consideration what you have observed about your organization throughout this diagnosis since module 2.) my organization is starbucks corporation while most of models of organizational diagnosis that we have been exposed to in this class recognize the existence of feedback loops, none of them really offer a thorough discussion of the complexity of feedback or how it can be used to promote organizational improvement and development. to get a better view of this topic, we turn to the work on systems thinking and organizational learning. much of this literature is based on the work of peter senge whose seminal book the fifth discipline popularized the notion that organizations are capable of learning. this first reading is quite long and reviews much of the work in the area of learning organizations. read it all if you like, but the most relevant part of the paper for this course is part vi, which covers systems thinking: larsen, k., mcinerney, c., nyquist, c., santos, a., & silsbee, d.
