You will interview two people in your current or previous organization who have observed or have been involved in the situation you choose for your Organizational Problem Assessment Paper to gather additional data. If this is really not possible, you may request permission to rather document your observations in detail based on your own experience .
In order to prepare, begin to think of good interview questions. About 5-7 questions is usually enough. The aim of the interview is to get an additional perspective on the problem, which might be different from your own. Attempt to stay neutral in the interview and see what you can learn. Ask questions that are open ended and could shed light in the problem. Also consider the following interview tips:
• Interview questions must be open-ended rather than closed-ended. For example, instead of asking a closed ended question like, “Were the resignations caused by the leader?”, which invites a yes or no answer, rather ask “What were the causes of the resignations?”
