Identify a current change in an organization with which you are familiar. Alternatively, identify a current public issue about which “something must be done”. In relation to the change issue, think about what sense-making changes might need to be enacted and how you would go about this. Assess this in terms of the eight elements of the sense-making framework suggested by Helms Mills and as set out in Table 9.7 (p. 303)
