Unit 9: Assignment

For this Assignment, respond using the critical elements
below:
Critical Elements:
Write your original response in Standard American English,
paying special attention to
grammar, style and mechanics.
Respond to the questions in a thorough manner, providing
specific examples of
concepts, topics, from question 1, and specific examples of
the impact on you from
question 2.
Ensure that your viewpoint and purpose are clearly stated.

Demonstrate logical and appropriate transitions from one
idea to another.
Your paper should be highly organized, logical, and
focused.
As the BPM nears completion the process team must be
concerned not only with the best-fit
roll-out option, but also in providing information to the
work team that will handle the completed
process or process change to ensure they are successful.
This often takes the form of
“mentoring.”
Mentoring is most often a one-on-one activity in which an
experienced individual (the mentor)
provides guidance and advice to someone with less experience
(the mentee). Any mentoring
relationship is, by nature of the process, a close one in
which experiences, knowledge, and
skills are shared.
The best way for mentors and mentees to share information is
through a process called
“shadowing.” Shadowing occurs when the mentee
actively watches, follows, and participates in
the activities, processes, or actions that are completed by
the mentor. This provides a visceral
and active learning environment.
To begin this Assignment please view the videos linked
below. After watching these videos
consider the BPM process you have been designing this
semester and address the following:
1. Should all members of the BPM team be considered as
possible mentors? Explain and
justify your answer.
2. Who within the organization would be the mentee(s) for
the institutionalization of the
new processes? Make sure you fully support your conclusions.

3. Identify ways in which mentors and mentees can use
shadowing as a method for
establishing the changes within the company after completion
of the BPM project.

Grading note: In the grading rubric below, you will see a
section on analysis and critical
thinking. The points in this section will partly be based on
your ability to apply the concepts
discussed in your assignment to the specific circumstances
and details of the
process/organization you selected. Writing in general terms
without applying the concepts and
analyzing your specific project may get you points in the
content section, but you will lose points
in the analysis section.
