DB5 – Week 6
1. I love how Raffaelli
says that Leaders are architects and engineers, being called upon to design and build change. Have you participated in an organizational change? What was your experience? Using the step/tools, how would you describe the process? Was it needed? The change process? Delivery? Lastly, was the change assessed and if so, how? During my time working in healthcare administration, we took on the challenge of building out a
digital, cloud based, time keeping system. Participating at the high level, the experience was, hopefully, once in a lifetime. Making the process change from a paper/hand written system to a computer system across the organization was challenging from day one. Using the steps provided by Raffaelli, the scope of change was incremental change where the large project was broken down into smaller projects and spread out over the course of the project timeline. Our project was a top-down change as it was initiated and directed by executive management and systemwide. We implemented the change as a fast change as there was a specific “go live” date where the systemwide change started (Raffaelli, 2017).
I have since left the organization and am unaware of the current assessment of change. I do know that managers meet on a regular basis to review and discuss organizational behaviors and changes.
2. Change management is a hot topic and sometimes we have a tendency to want to come in to make a change to shake things up or perhaps to put our stamp on things. However, we know change should be purposeful. Read about Nehemiah (Chapters 1-5)
and reflect on how change was brought about and the
outcome. What new insights did you gather from this account and what should be added to a leader's tool box?
In Nehemiah chapters 1-5, Nehemiah goes to the king to for permission to rebuild the wall around Jerusalem. With his passion, he gathers the teams to help him. By sharing his passion and staying
focused on his mission. He sought out guidance from God in prayer. References:
Raffealli, R.L. (2017). Leading Organizational Change: Harvard Business Review Press.
Responses:
Jeffrey Fardig:
Hello Jeffrey,
I appreciate your perspective with the organizational change that you described in your original post. I can understand and relate to the frustrations you described with the lack of top down communication. When tactical changes begin at an executive level, they can be difficult to reign into actual production. I can understand your point of view with management having a broad view of implementation that they did not take the time to dial down to specific departmental implementation. These are definitely the types of challenges that lead managers to seek out other opportunities.
Many Blessings,
Allison

The influence of an organization’s culture is a key factor that can support or prevent change within an organization.

Q- What are the main obstacles to
organizational change? What techniques can
managers use to overcome these obstacles?
arrow_forward
An organizational change model provides a basis for exploring what needs to change and offers a process to initiate change. Burke (2018) states "These models represent an integration of content and process and have evolved from both practice and theory" (p.207). Identifying the need for change, the organization's readiness to change, and potential resistance to change, determines how change is approached. Of course, application of specific change models can present challenges. However, Michels and Murphy (2021) developed a nine-trait framework for measuring an organization's change power using four of the most common company archetypes, therefore identifying factors that can increase an organization's ability to change. In the same way, Radel (2021) demonstrates the simplicity of a change framework and the McKinsey 7S Model in a visual diagram of all the necessary components for change to happen. As you explore conceptual and integrated models for understanding organizational…
