The assessments broadly reflect the change process:
1. First assessment was the context for the change event (organisation introduction, outline of change event, and discussion of role of change agent, and change models – Lewin, Action research and Positive).
2. Second assessment focused on diagnosis of organisational functioning (content of change) around the change event (Open Systems Model and one other diagnostic model to determine of the two which is the better fit with the organisation, and then applying the model to the organisation, and finally concluding and providing a course of action – some students may briefly have outlined possible interventions).
3. Third assessment relates to the process of change (how well did the organisation do) – evaluating the change event and the organisational functioning based on the political, cultural, economic, and leadership factors. Based on the evaluation, students then need to develop an alternative change strategy that includes recommended intervention(s) and strategies for institutionalising change.
So in summary:
• The organisation and its change event were identified in Ass 1(using models of planned change);
• The organisation’s functioning around the change event was diagnosed in Ass 2 (using diagnostic models);
• The effectiveness of the change initiative in the organisation is assessed in Ass 3, but students also need to develop an alternate change pathway (using information from Chapter 5 in the textbook, together with types of interventions and strategies for institutionalising interventions – see page 181/182 of the textbook).
Expectations for Ass 3
• Review the actual change model used by the organisation – this relates back to Lewin, Action research and Positive models).
• Identify the political, economic, cultural, and leadership factors that have influenced the implementation of the change event.
• From your findings of the political, economic, cultural, and leadership factors that have influenced the implementation of the change event, AND your findings from the diagnosis carried out in Ass 2, develop an alternate change model and consider alternate change strategies. The change strategy relates to types of interventions that might be used and ways to institutionalise the change better.
• Evaluate the effectiveness of the new model (the one you have just developed) against the one used by the organisation, so here you would showcase the strengths of the new approach.
• Briefly conclude outlining the course of the action the organisation should now take.
