This course critically examines both how transformative organizational change can be conceptualized and how the theories and models that support its planning and process development can be implemented. It investigates how leaders who initiate and direct major organizational shifts can mobilize, focus, generate commitment, and implement new directions in an organization. The course combines theory, case material, models and accounts of how and why organizations change their cultures, purposes, structures, and/or operational processes. Students will undertake a detailed analysis of an organizational change they have experienced, or one they have access to through interviews. Intermediate level course. 3 credit(s)
