The scenаriо thаt fоllоws should be used for both essаys: Chirp, Inc. is a popular US-based social media company based in Fort Worth, Texas. The company operates the microblogging and social networking service Chirp Chirp and has been in the news for a recent change in leadership and direction. The new, high-profile CEO took over the company about two years ago and immediately replaced all of the C-suite positions with people from their other companies. Additionally, nearly 4,000 employees were laid off by this CEO upon taking control of the company, This represents half of Chirp’s original workforce at the time of acquisition. In a communication to remaining employees, the new CEO stated that employees should appreciate still having jobs and this new extremely hardcore work culture of long hours at high intensity, or face termination. Additional developments have included: A demand for longer working hours (12-hour days, 7 days/week in some cases) The work from home policy has been cancelled – everyone must transition back to the office immediately Wellbeing days off have been eliminated Project teams have been eliminated as they were deemed to encourage “redundancy". Each project is now an individual contributor vs. team effort. One of Chirp’s core values had been “Transparency” but since the new CEO has been in place, calendars are blocked, access to needed documents and Slack channels have been locked, so it is hard to get work done according to employees who remain at the company. Chirp’s CEO has responded to rumors of employee feedback in the media by calling employees, “Complainers,” “Ungrateful,” and “Unworthy” to work at Chirp in the new environment. Survivor guilt, fear of additional layoffs, and a sense that the environment has become toxic are just a few of the reasons many of those who are still employed are searching for jobs elsewhere. Morale is also at a record low point; however, Chirp pays really well with the average salary topping $300,000 per year. Chirp has contracted with you as an Organizational Development Consultant to assist them in navigating this change in leadership and direction.
