In this case, I believe that using verbal and written communication will be the most effective way to communicate new changes. A memo can serve as a written message to communicate to employees of upcoming changes.

Though this organization was successful, they were not successful enough to be in the stuck state they were in. The growth of the Levon Corporation should have been the primary focus of everyone in the company especially the management team. Even though bringing the project management consultant in to outline to the management team the importance of project management functionality was stubbornly agreed upon it proved to be the first and most important step in the company’s change process. The employees will feel their opinions are suggestions are valued as a result of the management team taking the time to hear out the consultant. The apprehension of the management team is understood because that is the culture; however, once the functionality is implemented and the management team sees the growth and positive change, the company will be more adapt to change.

Dewey (1991) and Jasper (2003) suggest that reflection is a deliberate and cognitive process which incorporates a gradual self awareness, transformation and critical appraisal of the social world. Taylor (2000) defines reflection as... ‘…the throwing back of thoughts and memories... (Taylor, 2000, pg3) ..Thinking about them in order to make sense of them and as necessary make appropriate changes. Johns
How do we become knowledge workers within our own organizations? Hammer (2004) suggests that we are entering an age where we will all be knowledge workers. I find some truth in that because we are always learning from our peers, our employees, and our supervisors.

The design or teleological argument is an aposteriori argument, which means that it is based on experience and the evidence of the 5 senses. With ‘telos’ meaning end or purpose, the teleological/design argument looks for a purpose behind the universe. It is an example of inductive reasoning, as it points to the most probable conclusion from the evidence given.
