Organization Analysis
When an organization is faced with a challenge, or perhaps a new opportunity, care must be taken to properly diagnose the issues at hand so that proper actions are developed to accomplish the task in the most effective manner possible. During Week 2, you clearly defined a challenge for your chosen organization. During Week 3, you will develop a SWOT analysis targeting specifics of the organization that will impact the potential outcomes of the challenge.
Develop a SWOT analysis for the organization you are researching for your Final Paper. Define one or two findings for each section of the SWOT analysis that would be pertinent and specific to the outcome of the challenge identified during Week 2. For each section of the SWOT:
provide a definition for the section,
define a characteristic of the organization for the section, and use the defined questioning as the catalyst for the characteristic
and then, tell why that finding is important to resolving the challenge.
Vulnerable population
Vulnerable populations are groups and communities at a higher risk for poor health as a result of the barriers they experience to social, economic, political and environmental resources, as well as limitations due to illness or disability. Violence against vulnerable people is commonplace; it occurs in homes, schools, workplaces and neighborhoods. Our communities are diminished each time a child is hit in a supermarket queue, each time a person with a disability is taunted in the street, whenever someone with a mental health problem is homeless or an older person is isolated because they are afraid to go out. While incidents like this are treated as nothing out of the ordinary, taken together they represent a cumulative erosion of the human rights and dignity of people who already face barriers and have difficulties to overcome.
