You are expected to write a two-page double-spaced essay on the CDC Foundation in Atlanta, Georgia. This essay is not a summary of readings or critique. As this is a graduate course, you need to:
1) Identify what is the barriers for this organization to manage its tasks effectively? If you think your organization is already operating its tasks effectively, then you can describe reasons why it runs effectively. For example, You might want to say that the city government I worked was very rigid and centralized so city manager does not have discretion to change its structure or to encourage employees to be actively involved in any cooperation.
2) Even though there are many elements needed to improve in your organization, take a position (you defend that the organization you chose should remain in the public sector not in the private sector) and argue for supporting your position. For instance, nonprofit organization (you chose)’s mission is more driven by public interest (helping poor families to get a job) than lowering costs or cutting off benefits in spite of inefficient. It would be awesome that you are able to demonstrate in details. You can utilize previous reading materials or relevant literature.
3) Exposes theoretical gaps and suggest avenues for developing theories regarding practical fields or real conditions. For example, nurses are separately working for patients at the regional hospital, so collaboration in networks does not fit into nurses’ working patterns.
