DOVE cyclus: Diagnose Ontwerp Verandering Evaluatie
Why ‘organizational change’?
• Relevant in todays fast moving society and the inclusion of a broader set of stakeholders (change is
a way of life)
• Cuts across functions and hierarchical levels
• Requires its own skills and competences
• Cannot be controlled but can be facilitated
• Often relevant in transitions towards ‘responsible organisations’
• Connects well with the OD&D Master programme
- Direct stakeholders in task environment; buyers & suppliers
- Today NGO’s (greenpeace, artsen zonder grenzen etc.) are more important, so they’re too in
the direct task environment
> additional goal is to be a sustainable organisation, then you need NGO’s to help you to
reach this goal
- If you get new external stakeholders, the task environment will get more complex, then
organisational change increases
- If you divide the organisation in different departments, multiple department may be changed
when certain things change
- You can’t control fully the organisational change process

, Change in organizations
Starting point
• Strategic or transformational change = organizational shift in the context of environmental
developments:
• Hard: often involves changes in patterns of resource allocation, organization structure and
processes. Quite tangible, such as budget etc.
• Soft: often involves changes in central believes that members of an organization hold about the
organization, the nature of its environment and the competition and how it competes (~culture). This
is far less tangible.
Starting point: means and ends
what is the goal of your organisation
> goals at t are different than goals at
t+1
Terminology context specific change
1. Change content: The way and what of change; an outline of the required future state of the
organization and its relationship to the current state
2. Change process (transition): How is the change implemented?
3. Outer context: external (competitive) environment. Similar to the task environment.
4. Inner context: internal organizational context (e.g., control systems, power, and politics of
the organization). What the organisation is about internally.
- Goals are often interrelated. You have different ways of achieving the goal
