Organizational Reconstruction: Demonstrating the Needs Assessment Phase and Identifying Validity of Training and Development Procedures during Reorganization

Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2012 in the subject Business economics - Operations Research, grade: A, Walsh College, language: English, abstract: This research focuses on human resources (HR) skills training; the purpose is to evaluate the needs assessment process during reorganization. Reorganization is based on observing the areas of lack within the organization. Organizational reconstruction means: (1) exploring the components of needs assessment to see how each interacts; (2) detecting the advantages and disadvantages of needs assessment during reorganization; (3) considering the instruments and concepts used to perform needs assessment, and (5) identifying the validity levels of the Instructional System. Two created perspectives were introduced: focus-forward and patched intervention. These two perspectives relate to both needs assessment and the validity levels of the Instructional System. Overall, in consideration of today's organizations, reorganization does not happen automatically, and close observation is imperative.
