Project 3 Home Depot and Hewlett Packard: Diagnosing Change using the Star Four Frame Model By Amanda HRM587 Professor Anderson
I Diagnostic model
The diagnostic model that I believe that the Hewlett Packard and Home Depot would fit the best is the Four Frame Model. The Four Frame Model consists of: Structural, Human Resources, Political, and Symbolic. The Structural frame is based on the rules, goals, policies of the organization, technology and the environment. The Human Resources frame involves the needs, skills and the relationships between the people and the organization. The Political frame involves power, conflict and competition of the policies of the organization. Lastly the Symbolic frame involves the culture, rituals, heroes, meaning of the organization.

A. HP
When Meg Whitman became CEO of Hewlett-Packard she wanted to keep the same plan as her predecessor Leo Apotheker was doing. However in March of 2012 Hewlett Packard announced that it decided that it will realign the company by joining the Imaging and Printing Group with Personal Systems Group to make the Printing and Personal Systems Group as well as unifying Global Accounts Sales will be known as HP Enterprise group and include Enterprise Servers, Storage, Network, and Technology Services. By joining theses departments it was thought to help speed up decision-making, improve efficiency, and increase production. HP also announced that it would consolidate the marketing department to make run efficiently and simplify the buying experience for the consumer.
Hewlett Packard hoping that if unifying these departments they can come up new ideas while cutting costs. Hewlett Packard has been going through a very rough t0ime sales dipping. These changes also included moving Todd Bradley the executive vice president Printing and Personal Systems and put him as vice president of strategic
