Decision-Making Models and Dynamic Organizations

his week you will be creating the second component of your course project. As you do so, please make frequent reference to the readings and your own research on dynamic organizational structures and decision-making models from Units 3 and 4. Consider how they relate to each other and how they are currently being used in your organization.

For this assignment, address the following:

Compare and contrast two organizational decision-making models for their ability to support IT business needs.
Assess the organizational decision-making model used in your organization to determine who makes IT decisions and how (or if) that alignment supports business needs and affects the competitive advantage of the organization.
Compare and contrast two theories of dynamic organizational structures and change management in regard to their application to an IT organization.
Analyze the dynamic organizational structure used in your IT organization and the ways in which the governance model addresses changing technology and external business challenges (such as global competition).
Evaluate the relationship between a decision-making model and a dynamic organizational structure. Include in your evaluation how the dynamics of organizational change impact the selection of a decision-making model and how the combination of a decision-making model and a dynamic organizational structure affects the competitive advantage of an organization. Use what you know about your organization, as well as the readings and research from the units, to support your evaluation.
