| Course content and structure |
|
This course examines theories of change and development as they
apply to organisations, groups and individuals and explores the way
in which different theoretical perspectives on change are reflected
in the range of approaches that can be applied to the diagnosis and
solving of problems in organizations.
Attention is given to the critical issues that need to be
considered when developing and implementing a plan for change, such
as organisational politics, stakeholder management, strategic
leadership, communication, motivating others to change, maintaining
control during the change process, and choice and sequencing of
interventions. Students will consider how change management can
impact the well- being of employees and how change can be managed
in a socially responsible way that addresses the concerns of
external as well as internal stakeholders.
|
| Teaching methods |
The seminar will combine lectures, discussions,
group work and case presentations.
The seminar approach will draw on, examine and challenge your
existing assumptions and ideas about change management before
introducing relevant concepts and theories. |
