Overview:

This presentation will consider organizational change- the factors that underlay culture and what it takes to get successful change. The discussion starts with change itself. The types of change will be discussed. This includes the levels of change and the types of change.

This will then be applied to personal change that involves three parts. First, we will look at recognition of the different personal types or styles. Secondly, we examine the barriers or resistances to personal change, and, thirdly, we will lay out the various options for effecting personal change. Nest, we delve into what differentiates the culture level from the individual level. This will allow construction of modeling organizational culture. This leads to the fundamental discussion of the three underlying requirement of organizational culture change. From this, we will look at the types of culture change that can be effected and their relative prevalence.
The levels of organizational change are then described- individual, Group or Work Unit and Total Organization. This leads to the Lewin-Schein organizational culture change model whose stages will be described in detail. The resistance to organizational change and reference will be made to Dwyer's work on power and influence to achieve change in behavior.

Finally, there will be a discussion of various elements of strategies for achieving successful organizational change.

Why should you attend: Hospitals and Medical Staffs are constantly seeking to change their care approaches for the benefit of patients. The most recent large scale push has been in the area of patient safety. However, a majority of the organizations are finding that their efforts oftentimes are thwarted.
