Characteristics of Effective Change Programs
Motivating change by creating a readiness for the change among
employees and attempting to overcome resistance to change;
Creating a shared vision of the desired future state of the
organisation;
Developing political support for the needed changes;
Managing the transition from the current state to the desired
future state; and
Sustaining momentum for change so that it will be carried to
completion.

Lewin’s Three-Step Change Model
UnfreezingChange efforts to overcome the pressures of both individual resistance and group conformity.
RefreezingStabilizing a change intervention by balancing driving and restraining forces.
Driving ForcesForces that direct behavior away from the status quo.
Restraining ForcesForces that hinder movement from the existing equilibrium.

1 Part Organisational Change
Priority Prerequisites
1. Ensuring senior management commitment to the imposed changes, which needs to be visible to all participants throughout the organization.
2. Producing a written statement about the future direction of the organization that makes clear its new objectives, values and policies.
3. Creating a shared awareness of condition to produce a common perception that change must be implemented.
4. Assembling a body of key managers and other important opinion-formers to gain their commitment to the change process so that this may be disseminated more widely.
5. Generating an acceptance that this type of change will require a longtime to implement fully even though there may be short-term, dramatic changes as part of the overall process of transformation.
6 Recognising that resistance to change is part of the normal process of adaptation, so that manager can be effective to be aware of this and equipped to manage this reaction.
7 Educating participants about the need for change and training them with the necessary competence to be effective to overcome resistance and gain commitment.
8. Preserving with the change process and avoiding blame where an attempt to implement a facet of this process fails. Such negative action will generate resistance and reduce necessary risk-taking behaviour.
9. Facilitating the change process with necessary resources.
10 Maintaining open communication about process, mistake and subsequent learning.

Action research benefits:
Problem-focused rather than solution-centered.
Heavy employee involvement reduces resistance to change.

Action Research
A change process based on systematic collection of data and then selection of a change action based on what the analyzed data indicates.
