Course: Leadership
Read “BP and the Deepwater Horizon Disaster of 2010” with
an eye toward the organizational culture. It’s not important to focus
on the actual disaster itself or its engineering problems. Instead,
consider the corporate attitudes toward change.
Considering
the leadership styles from this week’s reading, evaluate which one
would be the most beneficial to execute radical change within the
organization as it is described in the case study.
Then, assume that the organizational
culture is still similar today. How would you recommend that the
organization implement a radical change process from fossil fuels to
renewable energies? In other words, how would you address each of the
five stages of organizational change?
The paper should be organized and referenced in accordance with APA format, free of plagiarism and grammatical errors.
