Assignment 1: Preliminary Data Analysis Outline for the Organizational Assessment Report

Create a draft outline (400-500 words, not including the required title page and references page) of key findings emerging from your data collection through observing and interviewing others at the organization. In other words, synthesize and summarize what you are learning from your data. Even though you are still collecting data by asking questions (interviews) through observation, report analysis, etc.,

For the outline (bullet and/or paragraph form), develop content that describes:

  • An overview of the organization’s cultural values and practices related to learning and development for everyone.
  • Findings emerging from the data. Use Kegan and Lahey’s (2016) ‘home’, ‘groove’ and ‘edge’ to organize your preliminary analysis. What are common themes you observe emerging from your data?
  • Identify theories that can help you explain the behaviors and actions you observe within your organization. The findings will ultimately help you identify a problem (gap) that can be improved with HRD interventions
  •  APA guidelines and ACU writing expectations, and includes in-text citations,
    • An Everyone Culture: Becoming a Deliberately Developmental 
    • Organization, text

      • Here are some categories of questions I might consider:

    Current learning practices:learning opportunities?

  • How do time constraints, workload, or resource limitations affect your ability to engage in
  • Support for Learning:
