CHANGE?
Organizational Growth Organizational Ability to manage change.
Change is the only constant in contemporary context.

Any strategic Development will, of necessity, involve
managing some degree of change to structures,
Technologies, products, services, culture or
processes.

Barlett & Ghoshal, Managing across Borders, HBR
The levels of change have in many instances outpaced
the Human capability to cope-up with Change.

structure, culture, technology, or people
NATURE

An organizational reality
An opportunity or a threat

STRATEGIES FOR PLANNED CHANGE
CHANGE IN WHITE-WATER
RAPIDS
Change is constant in a dynamic environment
The only certainty is continuing uncertainty
Competitive advantages do not last
Managers must quickly and properly react to
unexpected events
Be alert to problems and opportunities
Become change agents in stimulating, implementing and
supporting change in the organization

IS A NEW STRUCTURE REALLY
REQUIRED?
When you identify a problem
with your design, first look for
ways to fix it without
substantially altering it. If that
doesnt work, youll have to
make fundamental changes
or even reject the design.
Heres a step-by-step process
for resolving problems.
IS A NEW STRUCTURE REALLY REQUIRED?
(CONTD)
HOW STRUCTURAL CHANGE WAS MANAGED IN CASE OF XEROX AND
ABB
STRATEGIC CHANGE IS A POLITICAL
PROCESS*
1. Establish urgency: Identify & discuss crises,
potential crises & opportunities
Page 175 1
st
Paragraph Xerox
Page 147 Last paragraph ABB
2. Form a guiding coalition: Assemble a group
with enough power to lead; Integrate the team
Happening at Xerox Leesburg Virginia center
Relationship b/w CEO & Board, VP- Marketing (Percys
Boys), also page 151.
3. Create a vision: A vision to direct the change effort;
Develop strategies to achieve that vision
Quality in case of Xerox
Page 149 in case of ABB
4. Communicate the vision: Use every vehicle
possible to communicate & engage; Teach new behaviors by
example.
Team Xerox, Learning experiences (180), documented
process, MIOC (184)
Communication of strategic principles (149)
5. Empower others: Get rid of obstacles; Change
systems; Encourage risk-taking
In Xerox???
In ABB?????
6. Create short-term wins: Target rapid, visible
performance improvements
ABB: Page 148 and 149 what do you find
XEROX: Page 177 and 178
7. Consolidate improvements: Use credibility from
early wins to target areas that lag; Develop and promote new
leaders
Page 149: ABB
Pase 2 in case of Xerox
8. Institutionalize New Approaches: Connect
new attitudes and behaviors to results ; Develop generation
that personifies changes
Phase 3 in case of Xerox.
Stage 5: Is something visible.
