Additionally, be sure to refer to the ANALYZE Supplementary Document. Next, in your initial post, address the following: How has your analysis of Define and Measure informed your ability to analyze? In what ways do you feel you need additional information to analyze appropriately? What is essential about clarity of expectations in an organization, and what happens if that clarity of expectations is not present? What are "Five Whys" that you would recommend asking your organization's stakeholders (or to the stakeholders of the Garden Depot) to determine some solutions to the conflict? In responding to your peers, consider how your identified strengths as an analyst can help you suggest ways your peers can deepen their understanding of the Analyze phase and its application to their organizational conflicts or to the Garden Depot. Use specific examples from your own organizational conflict or the Garden Depot in your initial posts and in your responses to other students' posts. To complete this assignment, review the Discussion Rubric document. Learning Objectives Evaluate organizational conflict using the Analyze tools from the DMAIC process model Propose questions to stakeholders using the “Five Whys” process to determine proposed solutions to organizational conflict Examine relationships between the Define, Measure, and Analyze phases of the DMAIC process model and how they can be applied to an organizational conflict case study Deconstruct selected case study into each element of the SIPOC diagram in order to effectively Analyze present performance and identify needed improvements Module at a Glance This is the recommended plan for completing the reading assignments and activities within the module. Additional information can be found in the module Reading and Resources section and in the task list. Review required resources and write an initial post in the discussion. Respond to peers in the discussion. Write an initial post in the small group discussion. Respond to peers in the small group discussion. In Module Three, you examined the Measure phase of the DMAIC process model. In this module, you will explore the Analyze phase and examine how this phase is linked to both the Define and Measure phases. For the discussion in this module, you will engage with your peers by first using the Analyze phase of DMAIC, and then considering how the Analyze phase links back to the Define and Measure phases through application to your organization’s conflict or to the Garden Depot case. In addition to the whole-class discussion, you will participate in the first of two small-group discussions (the other one will be in Module Six) in which you will work with other students who selected the same final project case study that you selected. This interaction with your small group, including feedback you receive from your group members, will be important to you as you work on your two remaining milestones and your final project. The small-group discussion workshop structure follows Aronson and Bridgeman’s (1979) recommendations for cooperative learning, modified to suit the online learning environment. Carroll (2013) discusses how the Analyze phase includes change management: “Whether for define-measure-analyze-improve-control (DMAIC) projects, new product development, or other initiatives that necessitate the adoption and use of new processes, techniques, and ideas, managing the acceptance of the changes by employees and management is one of your main challenges” (Chapter 14, “Overview,” para. 1). In Module Five, you will explore the Improve phase of DMAIC; Module Six will build on the Improve phase, giving you an opportunity to delve more deeply into the material. You will also submit the draft of Sections II and III of your final project milestone two, the Measure and Analyze pieces of your final project case study. References Aronson, E., & Bridgeman, D.
