Course Introduction:
Change Management explores how we lead teams of people in organisations undergoing change. Change is all around us. We traditionally tackle it using project or programme management methods such as PRINCE2 or MSP. These methods help us organise the mechanics of change: strategies, plans, schedules and reports. Nevertheless we also need to consider the human side of change. Organisational sociology helps us make sense of how people respond to change at the individual, local and organisational levels. With understanding comes an ability to cope with, lead and manage change.
Change Management is not an approach sponsored by the Cabinet Office but it is a comprehensive set of models, tools and techniques that will allow you to come to terms with Change Management. Nevertheless, you are likely to be familiar with the format of the examinations from APMG that you will sit. The ideas assembled in The Change Management Study Guide Support for the APMG Foundation and Practitioner Qualifications, our study textbook, come from a diverse even conflicting range of sources. You will already be familiar with some of the metaphors on offer. But others will challenge your thinking about yourself, your organisation and how change happens.
Course Description:
The structure we use looks at:
- Individual Change
We consider how individuals react to change - grouping a wide diversity of ideas into behavioural, cognitive, psychodynamic and humanistic approaches. At each step along the way we explain the underlying ideas, strip away the complex jargon and allow you to consider which ideas have resonance for you.
- Team Change
The course thinks about teams in terms of the different types of people in a team and the different roles of teams during change. We build and experiment with powerful tools for assessing the lifecycle and effectiveness of teams.
- Organisational Change
Your organisation has a culture. It can be described and will describe itself in terms of metaphors. We look at familiar descriptions such as the machine and political metaphors. Then we go on to challenge you with possibly new and unfamiliar ideas around the organisation as an organism or the organisation in flux and transformation.
- Leading Change
As your build your own model of how change happens around you, you will be ready to look at a wide range of leadership styles. This will equip you to understand how others are leading change and how you can contribute and also lead change.
The course will help you to:
- Understand how individuals are impacted by change and be able to develop strategies to help people through change
- Develop insights into how organizations work , organizational culture and the models and processes of change
