MANAGE ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE

1. Identify at least 3 challenges the organisation faces.

 

The three challenges that the organization faces, first is the financial challenges because the recruiting costs are increasing because their staff turn-over are increased. Every year they added new products, this means another costs for the face to face training and because other retailers are offering higher rates to their sales people, BB Hi-Fi needs to pay a higher rate too to avoid left behind from the market. The second challenge is the increasing of their competitors. It is possible that competitors are cheaper from their products or brand and they lose their customers. The employees might be moving to their competitors if the competitors are offering a high rate to their staff or employees. The third challenge that BB Hi-Fi facing is the falling of staff satisfaction. Their staff needs more working hours and looking for some career pathways.

 

2. Develop a SWOT analysis for the organisation.

 

Strengths    Business experienced Strong customers based Recognized or established business Domestic market	Weaknesses    Un-satisfaction of the staff or staff satisfaction is falling Turn-over of the staff is high Competitive market
Opportunities    New technology Open new shop/store in some other places New line of products New market Growing demand	Treats    Competitors Staff are moving to competitors Rising cost of new brand Technology are changing Prices changes

 

3. Describe the opportunities for change you propose for each challenge or problem you have identified in Question 1.

 

• A tough decision to make for BB Hi-fi to overcome financial challenge. Maybe they can think of debt financing like loans, or update all their budget based on the costs as this will help to identify how much they actually need.
• BB Hi-Fi knows that they are not alone, they have a lot of competitors in the market and it always keep on increasing. Though this is very challenging in their organizations, managers must know the appropriate strategy to remain competitive and won’t left behind. Nonetheless, they must also understand the competitive strategies, their weaknesses and strength to develop a competitive product.
