INTRODUCTION & TYPES OF CHANGE
1 INTRODUCTION TO THE FIELD
Focus: Organizational Psychology (= applied part of psychology)
= Study of mind and behaviour in teams and organisations

Psychology is the science of mind and behaviour:
• Branches of research: experimental, biological, cognitive, lifespan developmental, personality, social
• Also applied research: clinical, industrial/organizational, school and educational, human factors, health,
neuropsychology, cross-cultural


ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOR – 3 LEVELS

A. Individual level
o Personality, perception, expectations, feelings, motivation, stress, burnout, well-being
o Knowledge and skills

B. Group level (Edmondson)
o Communication, trust, problem-solving, decision-making
o Leadership, group effectiveness

C. Organization and System level The arrows are crucial!
You can’t study change without the
o Structure & Culture
group or individual component.
o Inter-organization cooperation/competition/CSR Neither can you study the individual
o Organizational learning, OD, Change management features separate from the organisation.


COURSE GOALS

• Understanding relationships – who & how
• Understanding, applying and comparing Theories, concepts & methods
• Best practices, contextual features
• Correct interpretation of research results
• Constructive teamwork
• Developing skills for empathy and self-reflection
• Dealing with ambiguous situations
• Presenting & discussing in group


ORGANIZATIONS TODAY

We live in a VUCA world…
(Nathan Bennett & G. James Lemoine – Paper)

Volatility and uncertainty because of continuous changes
(extern and intern)

Complexity and ambiguity because many stakeholders
are (or want to be) involved

,MBA ’23-’24 Prof. S. Grieten


ORGANISATIONAL LEARNING

Learning isn’t something strictly individual.

Also, groups, organization, systems can “learn”:
= acquire something that lifts them up to a higher level, that questions assumptions, that makes people grow
together.

In organisations today, learning is the biggest competitive advantage!

3 intertwined aspects of learning:
- Individual learning (Chapter 4)
- Team learning (Chapter 4)
- Organizational learning (biggest part)(Chapter 5 & 9)



2 TYPES OF CHANGE

Change can have a negative impact.
Development is always positive, as you are working your way through existing processes.


EXAMPLES OF ORGANIZATIONAL ‘CHANGE’

• M&A difficulties: Different company cultures, processes and ways of working
National cultural differences

• ‘New way of working’: 4 components: 1. Independent of Time and place
2. Steering on results
3. Free access of knowledge and information
4. Flexible working relations
• Restructuring & Reorganisation
• Culture change
o From specialised -> collective
o From traditional -> innovative

E.g.: - Development from Ehsal to KU Leuven campus Brussels
- Merger of high schools in Leuven (Board decision without involvement of others)

70%
= Failure of changes and developments, most managers blame ‘circumstances’ of ‘individual features’ and not
the process of change itself => Need for better change management*!

The studies agree that it’s not about the ‘what’ of the change, but the ‘how’ of the change.
è This requires a new focus: what really works during change under which circumstances and why?
è It is all about the way/process change is produced together.

*Change management through quality of interactions and relation-building

Reasons mostly attributed to low success ratio:
• Unclear policy
• Hierarchical structure
• People want to keep power
• People are change-resistant, want to keep their identity
• Existing culture impedes change

, MBA ’23-’24 Prof. S. Grieten


2.1 THREE TYPES OF CHANGE / LEARNING - VIEWPOINT OF BOONSTRA
Several authors (Boonstra, Argyris, Cummings & Worley)

• So many change processes fail because the dominant change approach doesn’t fit in today’s dynamic
and ambiguous environment (Boonstra)

First order change NO REFLECTION
• Stable and predictable situations
• Technical/instrumental problems are solved in an existing context
• Logical adjustments without changing values/culture

Second order change REFLECTION
• Problems are complex, several perspectives on problems/solutions
• Replacing current values and assumptions by new ones
• Transition from A to B is needed, there are ideas how B should look

Third order change context REFLECTION-ON-REFLECTION
• Turbulent, complex, ambiguous situations
• New forms of organizing towards unknown new situation
• Multiple actors and organisations work together

Argyris: Single Loop (1st order change) & Double Loop Learning (2nd / 3rd order change)
-> See Chapter 5: Organisational learning: Model I & II




APPROACH 1. ‘PLANNED CHANGE APPROACH’




Example: new software, flexible office design

“IMPROVING” = metaphor of remodelling a house
• Organisation as adaptive to market demands, ‘economic’ model
• Top-down steering, managers using power or persuasion
• Consultants are knowledge experts
• Single linear process within a culture/structure that stays the same
• Structured, uniform, ‘techniques’

• 80% of all change processes follow the planned change approach
ð while 70% of all change efforts fail!!!?

• Result = cascade of change attempts
ð Confusion and insecurity
ð Unclear direction
ð Loss of motivation

Co-workers show behaviour which management calls: “resistance to change”

Planned change approach is used much too often!
Which leads to failure of the change process… and/or new change processes…
