Change
Management & Organizational Development
Constructing goals and pointing the way may be difficult, but getting people
to co-operate about the realisation of these issues is a challenge in its own
right. Too often organizational changes are made and projects of change are
initiated, which never yield the expected results. In a best case scenario the
organization is after a period of time back at its starting point - richer in
experience and much poorer in resources.
A
fundamental understanding of issues related to business management and co-operation
must be in place, just as the organization’s readiness for change is decisive,
when it comes to achieving success with the initiatives implemented. An
analysis of a given organization’s readiness for change will provide both a
basis for the planning of concrete developments and create a point of
departure for adjustments, which may increase the readiness for change.
Developments and challenges where
an
analysis of readiness for change
would
be advantageous:
-
Strategy change
-
Cultural change
-
Change of organizational
structure
-
New co-operative
relations
-
Policies and tools which
support organization and management
Developments must always have a strategic foundation. However, the completion
will as a rule influence or have the purpose of changing and optimising
business processes. An analysis of business processes could therefore be an
advantageous way to proceed when it comes to uncovering the organizational
roles, the processes involved in delivering the services, as well as the tool
application.
Developments and challenges where
the
business process analysis would
be
advantageous:

The results
of a development process are often considerable both in relation to strategic
progression, resources, the quality of the services, and the organizational
efficiency. Experience shows that the investment pays off if the developments
reflect the organizational readiness. As a parallel effect of the project
program and the visible results, a growth in the organizational readiness
occurs, thereby creating an improved point of departure for future
developments.
