Assignment 4: Resistance and Communication
Due Week 8 and worth 140 points
Using the organization that your instructor preapproved, diagnose the  organization’s level of resistance and construct a solid communication  plan. Use a tablet, smartphone, laptop, desktop, or traditional video  recorder to record a maximum of a five to seven (5-7) minute dynamic  video on the topics detailed below. Alternatively, you may submit a four  to six (4-6) page paper instead of the video submission.
Note: If you are using a tablet or smartphone you  will need to email the video file to yourself, then save it to a  computer in order to upload to Blackboard. You may want to upload your  video to a file sharing service, such as Dropbox, if your email will not  let you send a large video file. Dropbox is accessible from all  smartphones and tablets from the Dropbox app.
Once you are ready to upload your video to Blackboard, click  here to view the “Student Video Assignment Submission” video tutorial  in the “Creating a Presentation for Your Course” playlist.
