A division of a company that is non-union has a staff of 92 managers and
300 employees. This division uses fermentation technology to convert
dextrose into a variety of food and feed ingredients.
There is no real concern for safety, environmental and/or quality
controls
Tech’s managers use authoritarian approach to managing human
resources. This approach over the years has built many barriers between
the hourly employees and management and there has been some talk of
unionizing
The plant managers’ responsibility is to make all the daily production
decisions. His staff of production supervisors is to monitor the
production cycle and report to him for direction.
Frontline Supervisors have been promoted from within the company. There
is no apparent consideration to who would be promoted and no guidance

division.

Organizational Development Using Diagnostic Models
I am writing a paper on the above description. I have chosen the Analytical Model (Differentiation Integration); Force-Field Analysis Model; The Socio-technical Model. I know the definitions of each and have decided which one will best fit the organization (see attached file). I believe the Analytical Model is the best of the 3. If you know a better one that I have not mentioned, please advise.
I am not able to find any documentation on the advantages and disadvantages of the three. Also I am unable to find documentation on how to apply the model to each problem of the organization. I have my own opinion and it sounds logical based on my past experience, but I need to be able to document my findings.
================
Please provide me with information from web sites to use as documentation. Also make sure they are sites that I can access. I need as many examples and as much information on application and advantages of the these models as you can muster up. Thank you.
This solution explains three diagnostic models, the Analytical (Differentiation Integration), Force-Field Analysis, and the Socio-technical Model in terms of definitions, and the advantages and disadvantages of the three models. Supplemented with one document that further details the Socio-technical Model and its advantage in specific work situations.
