Brown, D. (2014) A Case Study adapted of Experimental Approach to Organization Development’ 8th Edition. Harlow, Essex: A Pearson Education Limited.

The following report highlights a more in-depth analysis of main issues of concern, problems, and likely solutions facing Brighter Futures. However, the purpose of the executive summary is highlighting significant recommendations before moving over to more important findings that affect Brighter Future (Stipek, 1993).

Brighter Future is a U.K based large-sized company with about four hundred employees supplying computer components to worldwide computer manufactures (Meldrum, 1995). The firm utilizes new OLED (organic light-emitting diodes) technology and also produces a majority of other high-tech products. Bob Moore is the CEO of the company claiming that the company gained an increasingly rapid growth since its establishment twenty-years ago and the organization is successfully moving to nanotechnology in advanced electronics (Meldrum, 1995).

Critical Analysis

The significant, challenges faced by Brighter Future include lacks proper coordination and integration of training activities at a more budgetary control (Tarascon, & Armand, 2001). A common language facilitates coordination, and the sensitivity of a common language is tested when they decide to participate in proper coordination. In the study cooperation of psychology, we get some subtopic Coordination problems. Although coordination in an ongoing area of psychology, it helps in perceive cheater and to recognize individuals (Cosmides & Tooby, 2005). Apart from other benefits of coordination, it also possesses several challenges that are not a motivational epistemological problem which results from difficulties in conveying a single solution. According to Cosmides and Tooby (2005), the natural selection formed the human living history and recognition help solve the problems coordination.

Solutions

To be able to improve an organization’s performance structure, it is vital to understand the possible causes of dissatisfaction of internal and external customer needs and requirements (Stipek, 1993). However, it is crucial to correctly understand the concept of structured problem-solving processes that enable the identification, analyzing, and eliminating discrepancies between several existing standards (Lewis, 2003, p. 325-344). Additionally, it is necessary for the Executive Committee to collect data through research, interviews, and survey which offer as a source of data for analysis (Reinharz, & Davidman, 1992). In times of conflict and disagreements between various departments of an organization, the committee is strongly advised to set up a standard structured problem-solving technique for the team as research shows it to be highly beneficial.

Conclusion

In successfully improve a company’s overall performance that causes dissatisfaction with internal and external disagreements, it is essential for the Executive Committee to provide a process that is possible of eliminating problems through prevention steps. Improving a company’s performance enables ease in problem-solving thus able to reach a more rationalized conclusion (Tarascon, & Armand, 2001).
