ASPIRE ESSAY This essay will look at the model of Assessment Planning Intervention and Review (ASPIRE). The essay will look at a case study where the elements of ASPIRE have taken place and look at the theories and values which have underpinned and informed practice. The essay will not take the form of being neatly separated into the different sections of ASPIRE in a linear sequence as the direct work that has taken place has very much been an inter-meshing of assessment at the same time as the intervention. This is because the main intervention used was Crisis Intervention model which, in Roberts’ ACT model, involves a minimum number of contacts. Due to the nature of intervening at a time of crisis its immediacy is paramount in helping to resolve the presenting problems, stress, psychological trauma and emotional conflicts (Roberts 2006).

In addition to written text the reader is briefed by a Powerpoint presentation, which is designed to present the project background in a condensed, visualised format. The same Powerpoint is used alongside an oral presentation to the CMI- approved centre that assesses the unit. Charts, such as a Gantt chart and a Project Flow Diagram form part of the briefing document to further visualise the project outline to the reader and are also shown in the project presentation. The scope of the project is change management in the ILT/IT context and the primary objective is the reduction of paper used in the faculty – to create a paper-free faculty using modern IT-based systems – and the briefing document is a supporting document for project proposal, from conception to delivery.

FORECASTING CHANGE & DEVELOPING FUTURES AN INTRODUCTION & OVERVIEW by Earl C. Joseph, Walden University ABSTRACT There are many approaches (methods) for gaining a deeper understanding about emerging change and where such change could possibly take us into the future. This session will cover some of the most used techniques for developing scholarly discourse about future impacts and consequences of change. It is designed to be useful for fulfilling the KAM and dissertation requirement to discuss change within professions and for social change and the future called for in KAM 1. Some of the techniques to be covered are trend forecasting, Delphi analysis, chaos driven futures, societal change forecasting, strategic forecasting, business intelligence, the SWOTS and SEPTS techniques, and more. INTRODUCTION In dealing with change of anything as well as in its forecasting, we’re most often interested in: • how change emerges, evolves, and/or dissipates over a period of time, • reasons for change, • what is impacted as a result of change, and • the consequences of change • how something is altered.

Therefore when making a change to the any of the parts, a strategic leader must be thinking through all the possible “systemic” effects of that change and at the same time it is important that he subsystems all have consistent goal alignment. The boundary of the system defines what becomes the internal as well as external factors of the overall system and how it might impact the behavior of the overall system. Every system is made up of inputs and outputs, processes and outcomes. The system is continuously making adjustments based on the feedback from these various parts to achieve a specific outcome. Inputs are broken down into three general categories: Primary resources (what we have at our disposal), external (what pressures do we have from vendors, materials and value streams), markets (competition, economics and social/culture).
Motivating Change There are two related tasks which need attention for this process to be successful. The first is creating readiness for change and the second is overcoming resistance to change. 1. Creating readiness for change - Before people are ready to change they must experience a dissatisfaction with the status quo. There are three methods
