Choose one social problem (such as: abortion, bullying, alcoholism, date rape, capital punishment/death penalty, racism, poverty, eating disorders, etc.) and describe, in your ideal society, how you would combat your selected issue to solve it. Describe the experience of those affected by the social problem and how their experience would be shifted through the changes made in your ideal society. (200 words) (15 points)

Managements position: Main bullet points
The Unions position: Main bullet points

Additional information:
Change Theories from this weeks reading:

*Environmental Change Theory: Change is dependent on variables such as circumstances, situations, and environment. Social systems evolve naturally over time but organizations are often unable to plan for change. But change happens as a result of environmental factors that keep undergoing change for survival.
*Teleological Change: Also known as planned change, scientific management, or rational models, it includes planning, assessment, incentive and rewards, stakeholder analysis and engagement, leadership, scanning, strategy, restructuring, and re-engineering. Organizations are purposeful and adaptive and their internal decisions motivate intentional change.
*Life Cycle: It focuses on the importance of human beings in the change process and emphasizes on systematic individual change. It also gives importance to the stages of organizational growth, maturity, and decline. Change is part of a stage and is progressive and rational. Change is a natural progression and does not occur because people want it or see it as necessary; it occurs due to individuals adapting to the organization’s life cycle.
Management is central to the change and assists individuals through training and motivational techniques.
