When implementing a change, it is critical to evaluate the change utilizing metrics. Metrics can be qualitative or quantitative in nature. For this Discussion Forum, think about a time that your organization (past or present) underwent a major organizational change initiative. Then, analyze and measure that change using the DICE framework (see the example in Chapter 10 in the TOOLKIT EXERCISE 10.6 example). Discuss that change by calculating the DICE score and discussing the results.

Measure:

• Duration: How frequently was the project formally reviewed?
• Integrity: How capable was the project team leader?
• Commitment of Senior Management: How committed is senior management to the project?
• Local Level Commitment: Do those employees most affected by the change understand the need and believe the change is needed?
• Local Level Commitment: Do those employees most affected by the change understand the need and believe the change is needed?

Calculate the Effort score: ________

Discuss the score and the risk category. What were the most concerning sources of risk? What would you do differently?

Directions:

• Discuss the concepts, principles, and theories from your textbook. Cite your textbooks and cite any other sources if appropriate.
• Your initial post should address all components of the question with a 500 word limit.
