Change Management… Define Innovation… Lee Zhuang • Unique and new activities or ideas, Emphasizes the act of creation, Inventing something new, Seeing something from a different perspective. • The people who innovate, • Improving existing processes, Improve something that already exists. Performing a task in a new way, • The dissemination of new activities or ideas. Adoption of innovations, All adoptions are innovations, Change Management,.. Define Change Organizational Change is not "happening", but intentional, usually triggered by external events to the organization. Planned change can be effected incrementally, or revolutionary. Change Management: Define Culture Organizational culture has been defined and described as a set of key values, guiding beliefs, and understandings that are shared by members of an organization (Meyer, 1982; Smircich, 1983a; O'Reilly, 1989). As such, culture is seen as defining basic organizational values and communicating to both old and new members the appropriate way to think, act, and "how things ought to be done" (Schein, 1969, 1984, 1985; Smircich, 1983b). For most, organizational culture represents the unwritten, affective part of the organization. Culture is also, using Wilson's analogy, "to an organization what personality is to an individual" (1989, 91). Change Management… Change Process The action roles in the change process are: (1) The Initiator, usually, though not always the responsibility of top-management; (2) The Change Implementers, the project team or change agent, often represented by middle-management and external consultants; (3) The Change Recipients or Change Targets, all people affected by the chang Reinvention…. J Thomas Hennessey Jr; Inability to change the culture has been identified as the most serious obstacle to change in the federal government (Kettl, 1994; Carroll, 1995; Carroll and Lynn, 1996) and simultaneously criticized as too simplistic and unrealistic in its approach (DiIulio, Garvey, and Kettl, 1993; DiIulio, 1994; Moe, 1994). •There is a strong relationship between organizational culture and performance, •Leadership appeared to be the key to improved organizational performance and more amenable organizational cultures Change Management… Innovation … Glor Once a government decides it wants to be innovative that it is in the business of innovation - it faces a pile of challenges…. Eleanor Glor The support of four key groups is needed: 1. the government in power, 2. management, 3. employees, 4. clients and publics outside the government Change Management: Efficiency and Innovation An innovative organization must create value. It does so by: •creating a greater variety of solutions to problems, •challenging unwarranted assumptions •identifying problems before seeking solutions. Change Management… Innovation … Glor A champion of innovation wants to be in a position to describe the costs of not innovating - and also the costs of efficiency. While reengineering and downsizing increase efficiency, they also eliminate slack. By eliminating slack, governments are reducing their capacity to be innovative, since innovation often grows out of slack ????? Change Management… Innovation … Glor An innovation champion needs to take a long view. A positive environment for innovation in government will not develop overnight. Change: Dennis T Jaffe; Cynthia D Scott; Reasons people resist any change: •fear of the unknown, •threat to job security, •loss of the familiar, •uncertainty about where they stand in the new order, •lack of understanding of the change or its rationale, •threat to vested interests and current perks, •skepticism that the change will lead to success, and •uncertainty about the future and therefore about whether the change will succeed or make things better. Change is difficult and can fail… Glor •Change is “stressing” for people going through it. •Management is also frequently challenged and threatened by innovators and innovation. • Hierarchy does not encourage innovation. • Management must not only understand its important role in encouraging innovation but also in promoting innovations, and should be held accountable for this role. •Mobilizing an organization to adapt its behaviors to thrive in new business environment is critical. Change Management… Employees… Glor Employees will support innovation if they believe it can improve either their own work environment or the product or service they provide for their clients in other words, if it will make things better. They need an environment which encourages self-knowledge risk-taking and constant learning. Sufficient time and resources to do innovation well must be provided. They need an environment which encourages self-knowledge, risk-taking and constant learning. Sufficient time and resources to do innovation well must be provided. Change Management… Adaptive Change Leaders today face adaptive challenges. •clarify their values & mission •develop new strategies, •and learn new ways of operating Change Management: AdaptiveChange Leaders have to identify struggles over values and power, patterns of work avoidance, and the many other reactions to change. Leaders need to understand themselves, their people, and the potential sources of conflict. Realize that people can learn only so much so fast, and maintain a productive level of tension and motivate people without disabling them. Also requires the ability to hold steady and maintain the tension. Change Management: AdaptiveChange •Emotional capacity to tolerate uncertainty, frustration and pain. •No one learns anything without being open to contrasting points of view. •Give work back to the people.. •Giving a voice to all people. Too often whistle-blowers, creative deviants, and other such original voices routinely get smashed and silenced. Change Management: Adaptive Work Adaptive work is required: •when our deeply held beliefs are challenged, •when the values that made us successful become less relevant, •competing perspectives emerge. Adaptive situations are hard to define and resolve precisely because they demand the work and responsibility of all members. They are not amenable to solutions provided by leaders; adaptive solutions require members to take responsibility for the problems that face them. Change Management: How Do We Get Innovation Going? Glor…………... • One approach is to encourage constant learning. • Create permission for risk-taking. • Avoid leaving people out. • Improve the climate for increasing self-awareness. • Change the environment in other ways. • Change laws that need changing. • Invest resources adequately in innovation. Change Management: Winning Teams •Are clear about their goals. •Are in touch with what is going on outside the team. •Are small in size, but large enough to master the process. •Have and increase complementary skills. •Value input, regardless of rank. •Are confident in overcoming conflict. •Support each other in achieving more than they ever thought possible. •Celebrate their success. Re-Engineering A Reengineering project effects revolutionary change to an organization. The project deliverables are radically improved business processes, which satisfy customer requirements much better than before, and which achieve drastic improvements to the operational results of a company. Reenginnering: Dennis T Jaffe; Cynthia D Scott; Reengineering's promise is technical and rational, implying that organizations can be completely redesigned by a group of designers who take an empty sheet of paper and redraw the organization for rational excellence and pure performance. Companies often set off on their journeys in high spirits-the designers engage in a logical process that does indeed lead to a plan for a new organization.. Change Management: Reengineering Externally, focus on end customers and the generation of greater value for customers. Give customers and users a single and accessible point of contact through which they can harness whatever resources and people are relevant to their needs and interests. Internally, focus on harnessing more of the potential of peopl overlooked. Encourage learning and development by building creative wo squeeze more out of people and working them harder, rather Think and execute as much activity as possible horizontally, The following section gives a description of ea competencies and how each of the nine leaders 1.

What are some of the major problems associated with innovation and change? What strategies can be employed to facilitate change and stimulate innovation in organization. (Cite Readings). 2. What is reengineering? What are the basic steps in successful reengineering? Reenginnering Problems Dennis T Jaffe; Cynthia D Scott; Certain practices that undermine its radical aspirations have crept into its actual process. Several flawed assumptions about reengineering practice get in the way of producing the desired results Successful Reinvention: Dennis T Jaffe; Cynthia D Scott; Deep change poses challenges 1. Achieving critical mass. It is not easy to get people to be different. Many companies confuse coercion, however benevolent, with commitment. Companies getpeople to do some new things, but inwardly, the employees neither understand what they are doing nor why they have to do it. Successful Reinvention: Dennis T Jaffe; Cynthia D Scott; 2. Remaining open to discovery and learning. •Reengineering is a major risk, •Does not necessarily involve learning or that it only involves learning at a very rudimentary level. •Leaders talk about change but act as if change is the last thin they can accept. •When the plan is implemented, unintended effects or difficulties show up. Successful Reinvention: Dennis T Jaffe; Cynthia D Scott; 3. Reengineering is the enemy of hierarchy. Change is the enemy of the status quo, the stable organization, the hierarchy, and the political organization. 4. Overcoming resistance. Change: Dennis T Jaffe; Cynthia D Scott; Fully engaged top leadership. Top leaders often believe that spon clear that no deep change is successful if the leaders are not fully change. An effective change leadership team must engage the cha Leaders set a context for change, providing a container in which th apparatus for change.
