CASE STUDY REPRESENTATION
Slide 2:
Learning Objectives:
-
Design an evaluation plan to assess the effectiveness of the implemented intervention for
collaboration at Acme Industries.
Analyze the challenges of measuring success in a dynamic work environment.
Discuss strategies for a future-oriented evaluation using a mixed-methods approach.
Slide 3:
Scenario Overview:
Following the implementation of the intervention strategy you designed in the previous module, it's now
time to evaluate its effectiveness in improving collaboration across departments at Acme Industries
Slide 4 and so on:
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Evaluation Plan Design:
SOLUTION/ INTERVENTION
Assess the impact of the intervention on
collaboration within Acme Industries. By utilizing
the learnings in Module 6, we’ll use the evaluation
phase to design an evaluation plan.
The
target
aspects
of
collaborations
(communication efficacy, knowledge sharing
practices, and cross-departmental teamwork).

To gather the necessary data, we will
employ a multi-faceted approach such as
surveys, performance metrics, and focus
groups.

2. Challenges and Future Focus
Analyze survey results and performance
metrics to identify trends and changes.
And interpret focus group discussions to
understand qualitative aspects of
collaboration.
 Summarize the findings from all data
sources, make a report, and share it with
stakeholders and incorporate their
feedback for continuous improvement.
Challenges in a dynamic work environment


Employee Turnover has a big impact on
team stability and collaboration.
External Influences such as market
changes, economic factors, and their
effect on collaboration.
To address these challenges, the evaluation plan
in Acme Industries must be updated on a frequent
basis to take changes into consideration, monitor
trends over time, and employ long-term data.
Future-oriented evaluation that focuses


Adaptability to ensure that the evaluation
plan allows for adjustments based on
emerging trends.
Feedback loop that uses data to refine
and improve ongoing OD efforts.
3. Mixed-Methods Approach:
To create a more comprehensive evaluation of the
intervention in Acme Industries we can use mixedmethod approach which is combining
Quantitative and Qualitative Data.


Quantitative Data – surveys provide
measurable insights into collaboration
metrics.
Qualitative Data – focus groups offer
deeper understanding of employee
experiences and challenges
Using a mixed-methods approach provides a wellrounded understanding of the intervention's
impact by combining quantitative data with
qualitative insights. This blend of hard data and
personal feedback offers a more comprehensive
analysis. As a result, it captures both measurable
outcomes and the nuanced experiences of
participants.
4. Recommendation and Conclusion:
Recommendations for the Evaluation Phase of the
OD Cycle in Acme Industries



Data Collection – use surveys,
performance metrics, and focus groups.
Address Challenge – consider employee
turnover and external factors in the plan.
Mixed-Methods Approach – combine
quantitative and qualitative data for a
robust evaluation.
Focusing on this final phase of the OD Cycle in
Acme Industries, a well-rounded evaluation plan
provides a structured opportunity to measure the
effectiveness of interventions, ensuring that the
intended outcomes are achieved. It also allows us
to identify any unforeseen challenges that may
impact the results. Through these evaluations,
Acme Industries can make data-driven decisions,
refine strategies, and implement necessary
adjustments, ultimately leading to continuous
improvement and success in achieving its
objectives.
