Models of Organization Change

1
Introduction
Our understanding of organization change has evolved since the 1940’s when the initial model was developed. These slides take you through some of the prevalent models of organizational change. The models are presented in chronological order.
2
Lewin [1951]
3
Basic Assumptions
Focused on individuals
What is occurring at any stage is a result of opposing forces. The status quo - what is happening right now - is the result of forces pushing in opposite directions.
Change is a process which entails moving from one equilibrium point to another.
4
Stage 1: Unfreezing
Unfreezing: Creating motivation and readiness to change through:
• Disconfirmation (creates pain or discomfort)
• Creation of guilt or anxiety
• Provision of psychological safety
5
Stage 2: Moving
Changing through cognitive restructuring: Helping the client to see things, judge things, feel things, and react to things, differently based on a new point of view obtained through:
• Identifying with a new role model, mentor, etc.
• Scanning the environment for new info.
6
Stage 3: Refreezing
Refreezing: Helping the client to integrate the new point of view into:
• The total personality and self-concept
• Significant relationships
7
Lippitt, Watson, and Westly [1958]
8
Basic Assumptions
Focused on change process
Expanded Lewin’s 1951 model into seven stages
Road map for consulting relationship
9
Seven stages
1. Developing need for change [unfreezing]
2. Establishing a change relationship
10
Seven stages 3. Clarifying or diagnosing the clients system’s
problems
4. Examining alternative routes and goals; establishing goals and intentions of actions.
5. Transforming intentions into actual change efforts.
[stages 3, 4, 5, correspond to Lewin’s moving phase]
11
Seven stages
6. Generalizing and stabilizing change. [Corresponds to Lewin’s refreezing phase.]
7. Achieving a terminal relationship, that is, ending the client-consultant relationship.
12
Kilmann’s Beyond the Quick Fix [1989]
13
Basic Assumptions
Focused on change process and critical leverage points
An attempt at total system change
That change will take 1 to 5 years
14
Killmann [1989]
The process has five sequential stages:
1. Initiating the program
2. diagnosing the problems
3. scheduling the “tracks”
4. implementing the “tracks”
5. evaluating the results
15
Killmann [1989]
Tracks are five critical leverage points, that, when functioning properly, cause an organization to be successful. They include:
1. culture
2. management skills
3. team-building
4. strategy and structure
5. rewards
16
Burke-Litwin Model of Organizational Change
[2002]
17
Basic Assumptions
Demonstrates how to create first-order and second order change.
Differentiates between organizational climate and organizational culture
18
Burke-Litwin Model
Organizational climate is defined as people’s perception and attitudes about the organization -- whether it is a good or bad place to work, friendly or unfriendly, hard working or easy-going and so forth. These perceptions are easy to change because they are reactions to the current managerial and organizational practices.
19
Burke-Litwin Model
Organizational culture is defined deep-seated assumptions, values, and beliefs that are enduring, often unconscious, and difficult to change. Changing culture is much more difficult than changing climate.
20
Burke-Litwin Model
First-order change goes by many different labels, including: transactional, evolutionary, adaptive, incremental, or continuous change.
In first-order change some of the feature of the organization change, but the fundamental nature of the organization remains the same.
21
Burke-Litwin Model
Second-order change is also known as, including: transformational, revolutionary, radical, incremental, or discontinuous change.
In second-order change the nature of the organization is fundamentally and substantially altered--the organization is transformed.

Porras-Robertson Model of Organizational
Change [1992]
26
Basic Assumptions
Altering feature in the work setting causes changes in individual behavior, which in turn lead to individual and organizational improvements.
The work setting plays a critical role, and consists of four factors, including: (a) organizing arrangements, (b) social factors, (c) physical setting, (d) technology.
