Question description

Winsome Manufacturing Company produces plastic storage containers and sells them to the home consumer through home sales events. At the company’s quarterly meeting, the head of marketing described a new product to be introduced in the first quarter of the next fiscal year, approximately 9 months from now. The product will be a room-sized plastic storage unit suitable to the outside of the home; it is similar to a competitor’s product but will have significantly more features. This product will open new markets for the sales channel, lay the foundation for add-on products, and generate new revenues. Management has only seen preliminary sketches of the potential product but are very excited by the new product.

The project will require participation from the design, production, purchasing, shipping, sales, and marketing departments. Winsome Manufacturing owns a line of suitable injection molds, so all manufacturing will be done in-house. The project manager for this project has not yet been selected, but that decision is expected to be made in the next week.

A preliminary project initiation meeting will result in the identification of the project sponsor, selection of a project manager, and creation of the project charter. A manager in the production department who knows you are taking a college project management course asks you to prepare a brief report to help him prepare for the meeting by answering the following questions:

• Who are the project stakeholders? How will they be involved in the project?
• Who should be the project sponsor? Why?
• From which department should the project manager come? Why?
• What skills and experience are likely needed by the project manager for each phase in the project life cycle, and how do they differ between the various phases?
• What type of communication plan will likely be needed during the project?
  • What information should be shared with the project stakeholders?
  • What is the mechanism that could be used for each type of information?
  • What is the frequency with which information should be shared?
  • What should be done if project communications are not proving to be effective?
  • What technology could be used for project communications?
  • At what point could communication about the project become an ethical or legal issue?
• What information should be included in the following elements of the project charter:
  • What is the problem the project proposes to address?
  • What business opportunity might project completion create?
  • What is the business case for undertaking the project?
  • What is the financial impact of the project?
  • What are the expected results of the project?
  • What value will the project add?
  • What are risks that might be involved with undertaking the project?
  • What is the potential impact to the company if the project is not undertaken?

Present your findings as a Word document of 4–5 pages (not including title and reference pages) formatted in APA style.

Reorganization can be a difficult transition for a work environment without the vision and direction of leadership. Leadership is responsible for promoting growth of an organization or unit to accomplish visions and goals and works to influence and empower staff by recognition and building self-confidence. Encouraging staff to work toward their own personal and professional goals also helps in building self-esteem.

New authoritative management can reek havoc within a department. New changes within the departments and units, without the staffs knowledge, can lead to increased tension, concerns for patient safety, changing of staff to patient ratios, decreased continuity of care, and patient acculturation concerns and unhappy nurses. The moral of the department can plummet. Communication with staff of the new visions and changes planned for the department is imperative for the adjustment. Input from the nursing staff will also be beneficial to understand the workflows, the established environment, and diverse cultures (Huber, 2014).

Use of the democratic theory is beneficial to allow staff to participate in decisions within the unit related to workflows and reorganization (Huber, 2014 ). Maintaining a positive work environment and empowering the nurses to focus on the organizations changes can assist in a smoother transition. Addressing and solving conflicts as soon as possible to avoid chronic frustration is alos necessary. Communication, assertive dialogue, and empathy are some of the conflict management techniques available to assist with anu adjustments (Huber, 2014). Organizational conflict resolution can be made through bargaining, using rules, procedures, and administrative control through integration.

New directors can find staff acceptance by developing relationships with those in the organization, working with a mentor prior to making drastic changes to determine the appropriate workflow for the culture and environment, and speaking personally to staff versus using emails to telephones. Developing and understanding of the political climate of the new environment is necessary for success in any organization (NRS-451V, Lecture 4, 2013).
