| Omschrijving | In this course the emphasis lies on doing organizational change, on the changing process itself consisting of the agents, their assumptions and strategies, their interventions in the organizational system and their interactions with the actors involved. To this end you will be asked to observe, describe, analyze, plan and review change processes. The course follows an action-oriented approach: case-based learning by the group, and experiential learning during a simulation. You will work from a planned change perspective; will learn to balance WHAT and HOW issues in diagnosing change situations; and will build arguments for choosing relevant interventions at different levels. The course aims to facilitate and contribute to the development of your toolbox, in terms of possible roles and interventions. It also invites you to critically appraise the role of change agents and of their interventions in creating and sustaining conditions for change. While the course's emphasis lies on planned change management, you will be asked to reflect on its limitations and may play with or explore its boundaries. | ||||||||||||||||||||
