23. Introduction to change management By Martina Huemann & Marge Combe 8:15 – 9:15

24. What is change? Change is the process of becoming different. “To exist is to change, to change is to mature, to mature is to go on creating oneself endlessly.” – Henri Bergson

25. Change may be….. • Evolutionary • Occurs very slowly over time • Adaptation is in small, sometimes almost imperceptible steps • Success dependent on recognizing change is occurring • Examples: • Disappearance of dinosaurs • Culture shift in an organization • Revolutionary • Happens in one or only a few strokes in short time frame • Adaptation must occur rapidly • Success dependent on acceptance and engagement in change • Examples: • 9/11 • Becoming a parent • Merger

26. Objects of Change Social Systems • Individuals and Social Systems Interactions Societies Organizations Temporary Organizations Permanent Organizations Companies Divisions Departments Programmes Projects (based on Niklas Luhmann)

27. Projects & Change Projects and programs as objects to change Project crisis Project controlling Not focus of today! Projects and programs to organize for change in the permanent organization 27

28. Change Processes (Levy & Merry) Examples 1st order change: e.g. introduction of a new product 2nd order Change: e.g. acquisition of an organization

29. Model: Identity of the Organization(Gareis & Stummer 2006) • Structures • Objectives and strategies • Services, products, technologies • Organizational structure, culture • Personnel • Infrastructure • Budget, financing • Context • Relevant social environments • History and expectations regarding the future Organization Context
