SOCIAL CHANGE AND EVALUATION STRATEGY
 
An op-ed is a communication tool that a leader can use to communicate about what they value for their positive social change strategy, why and how they support their opinion, and that their strategy has scholarly support from peers. An op-ed is not just an ambiguous comment or a falsified piece of information—it must be supported by evidence-based facts that lead to why you would strategize in such a way and how the evidence backs up your opinion. It is an effective, brief way to give audiences an overview of your social change strategy and why it is important to the organization. For the field of public administration, op-eds can be found in print and/or online, including public administration journals, think tanks (e.g., Brookings Institute, RAND Corporation), peer-reviewed newspapers with editorial review (e.g.,  The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal,  The Washington Post), and institutes/agencies (e.g., Institute of Health Improvement, Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality). As you identify an op-ed, make sure the journals have editors and a peer-review and/or editorial board, and avoid those sources that are known for having falsified information and/or do not have a legitimate peer-review and/or editorial board.
