Solved by a verified expert :Research Paper InstructionsPlease refer to the article
submission from Module/Week 1 to complete the research paper. Please follow and
format your paper accordingly.
Step 1
In Module/Week 1, you submitted a scholarly, peer-reviewed
article for approval. For this research paper, you will discuss the importance
of that article in regards to organizational behavior while using the
problem-solving, integrative framework learned in Chapter 1. With your
organizational problem, provide the following information:1. Brief summary of
the organization.2. Synopsis of the organizational challenges (Step 1 on the
problem-solving approach)· What is the major overriding issue?· Provide the
facts and examples to support the explanation of the problem.· Discuss key
issues that merit the discussion.3. Who are the various individuals and what
part do they play? (Step 2 on the problem-solving approach)· What challenges,
threats, or opportunities do they pose?· Explain the role of leadership in the
situation.· Provide any environmental issues that should be considered.As you
discuss these areas to address the first portion of the problem-solving
framework, provide examples and research to support your discussion.
Step 2
Now that you have laid the foundation of the problem, explain
how the theory you researched applies. Provide in depth analysis with your
article as the main evidence.1. Explain the author’s current view on the chosen
organizational theory and how it relates to your problem.2. Provide key
indicators that the author applies from theory to the concept in organizational
behavior.3. Discuss what you believe are the most relevant portions of the
article that tie the theory and concepts with your organizational issue to
create an explanation for the problem. In other words, if you had to explain
the organizational issue to someone, how would you relate it to what the author
has stated?
Step 3
The final process (Step 3) in the problem-solving framework
is recommendations. Based on your research, use this final step to provide
recommendation plans for the problem. Do you want to resolve, solve, or
dissolve the problem? Consider the consequences as well for the plan of action
in your recommendation. Use well-thought-out ideas and research to support your
plan. Describe where you see your personality style fitting into your
recommendation for the organization to make your plan work, to tie in the
previous papers. Apply what you have learned through Scripture, describing how
the Lord can utilize your strengths to implement the recommendation plan.

1. Use proper, current APA format for every element of the
paper. Be sure to include the APA-formatted cover page, abstract, and reference

facilitate the instructor’s grading of these assignments, you must have major
headings for Step 1, Step 2, and Step 3. Additionally, under the major
headings, you must have subheadings as you see fit for the outlined
instructions.4. The exact number of paragraphs that you include in each section
is your decision; your instructor will not be grading you on how many
paragraphs you used per section, but rather the extent to which you
specifically addressed each of the areas above.5. The 8–10 required pages do
not include the title page, abstract page, or reference page. Those must be
counted as additional pages.6. Be sure to double-space, using Times New Roman
