Motivace ke změně v rámci týmové komunikace / Motivation for Change within the Team CommunicationBláhová, Martina January 2015 (has links)
The aim of the thesis was to facilitate the implementation of process change in the company KS-Europe, s.r.o. For this purpose, I conducted a survey in that enterprise through which I examined the feelings and opinions of employees for future change. On the basis of the survey was identified risk areas in preparation for the change about which I informed the director of the company that he could possibly take appropriate measures to alleviate the course of change. Approximately two months after the introduction of the change I conducted structured interviews with the director of the company, the chief of Heftshop and two employees. These interviews were analyzed by comparison to assess the overall course changes.

The impact of diversity on global leadership performanceStorey, Sylvana Clare January 2013 (has links)
Purpose: The focus of this research is to understand the impact of diversity on global leadership performance. Design/methodology/approach: From the literature review the researcher developed the components of the LEAD³ tool as well as, devised the questions for the in-depth semi-structured interviews that would test the tool. The questions centred on the three constructs of leadership, diversity and organisational factors and interviews were conducted between 2009 and 2010. The sample consisted of 79 senior leaders from seven companies across seven differing sectors and covered 22 different countries across 5 continents. A case study research strategy using a hybrid of open coding, thematic analysis and content analysis was employed. Findings: A series of themes were found under the three constructs: For Global leadership – competencies, connecting, rigour, stakeholder satisfaction, value based professional, influences. For Diversity – inclusivity, performance measures, role modelling, positioning diversity and innovation. For Organisational factors – organisational way of being, facilitating diversity, behavioural practices, ways of working, issues of concern and driving diversity. Issues emerging from the comparative analysis consist of cultural dimensions, engagement and learning. Research Limitations: Issues on reliability and validation, translation in measurement, environmental inconsistency, interviewer/interviewee bias, and ecological fallacy often levied at qualitative research. Research Contribution and Value: The findings tested against the tool, confirm the robustness and relevancy of the LEAD³ as an operational tool that will enable leaders to focus and integrate their diversity efforts. LEAD³ is encapsulated within an integrated change management framework and proposes a multi-level and multi-dimensional approach to global leadership and diversity that also includes performance drivers, stakeholder groupings, performance outcomes and organisational activities (change interventions). Future Research:Finally, an attempt is made to develop a competency framework for leadership and diversity from data emerging from findings. This is named the Global Leader Index for Diversity (GLIDE) – a framework that recognises the diverse aspects of a global leader’s role and identifies associated skills and behaviours that global leaders of the future need to develop.

Managers perceptions of change management within a Gauteng public service sectorSaul, Thabo Francis 06 June 2012 (has links)
M.Tech. / The purpose of the study was to conduct an assessment into the responses of managers with regard to organisational change within the South Africa Social Assistance Agency (SASSA). The study comprises four objectives as follows: The first objective of this study was to conduct an extensive literature review regarding the nature of the organisational change management. This entails the process through which the researcher consulted different sources such as books, journal articles, policies and programmes and others in order to conceptualize the issue of organisational change management in a detailed manner. Organisational change management is about an organised and systematic utilization of knowledge, skills, attitudes and other relevant resources for the improvement of the organisational business. Organisational change management is basically intended to enable organisations to adapt to their respective environments, failure of which can lead to their total loss of employees, competition, production and the clientele. Organisational change management has numerous features, namely; it tends to involve contradictions, it is continuous, it is interpreted through the perceptions and interactions of people and it is facilitated by a collaborative inquiry and team-work. Organisational change management is a process that must be treated like any other programme within organisations and as such, it is a responsibility of the human resource management of organisations. It is a programme that is mainly directed at improving the quality of productivity and service delivery. In this regard, organisational change management must be planned, implemented and evaluated within the parameters of the factors that influence change within organisations such as the following: the ever-demanding customers, globalization, new technology, innovation and people.

'n Evaluasie van die gebalanseerde telkaartmetodiek as meetinstrument vir doelwitbereiking binne 'n onderneming in die petrochemiese bedryfVan Heerden, Johannes Hendrik Petrus 14 August 2012 (has links)
M.Comm. / From the literature is it well known that the environment in which companies currently compete, is continuously changing. It is therefore increasingly important for companies to align the energy of all its employees with the strategy of the company. Furthermore it is important that the management team not only receive feedback on whether the company's strategy is implemented, but also on how well it is implemented and executed. Measuring the progress towards the successful execution of the strategy is vital for management in the continuously changing environment. The balanced scorecard methodology enables management to align the energy of the employees to the proper execution of the strategy and measuring the progress towards achieving the strategy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the balanced scorecard as a measuring tool as implemented in a local petrochemical company.

The effect of Web 2.0 communication on employee resistance to changeOberholster, Zelna January 2014 (has links)
Web 2.0 combines various electronic mediums, websites, blogs and applications across a wide range of devices and provides opportunity to communicate bespoke change messages to employees. The purpose of this study is to establish whether the use of Web 2.0 has an impact on employees’ resistance to change during the change communication process and whether employees show a preference for a communication medium in the context of organisational change. The failure of most change efforts are often ascribed to insufficient communication, but employee perspectives on the preferred communication medium and whether Web 2.0 communication impacts on employee’s resistance to change has been largely overlooked in academic literature. A descriptive research design approach was followed. Inferential statistics was used to apply parametric and non- parametric tests to analyse the data. A self-administered electronic survey was sent to 1337 employees across four sectors that have been affected by any type of organisational change between January 2012 and June 2014 in South Africa. The response rate was 19.8% (266 responses). The paper finds that there is a preference towards face-to face communication and that participation increases willingness to accept the change. There were no differences found in the manner in which females and males responded to the questions on willingness to accept the change. This research enables communication and change management professionals to assess the suitability of WEB 2.0 mediums during various stages of organisational change. The Blended Media Communication (BMC) Model to Reduce Resistance to Change is proposed based on the findings of the study. The research will add to the theory concerning an employee perspective on Web 2.0 change communication. / Dissertation (MBA)--University of Pretoria, 2014. / lmgibs2015 / Gordon Institute of Business Science (GIBS) / MBA / Unrestricted

[en] THE MANAGEMENT OF CHANGE IN BRAZILIAN ORGANIZATIONS OF PUBLIC INTEREST: AN OVERVIEW OF ADVISORS / [pt] A GESTÃO DE MUDANÇAS EM ORGANIZAÇÕES BRASILEIRAS DE INTERESSE PÚBLICO: UMA PERSPECTIVA DOS CONSULTORESBETANIA DUMOULIN DOS REIS 21 June 2011 (has links)
[pt] O presente estudo tem por objetivo analisar os impactos gerados pela
adoção do modelo Gestão por Resultados em organizações brasileiras do setor
público, com 4 enfoques: I) identificar que fatores estimulam a adoção deste
modelo de gestão; II) analisar as dimensões organizacionais impactadas; (iii)
refletir sobre os fatores restritivos e facilitadores à implantação deste modelo,
tanto organizacionais quanto individuais; e (iv) identificar as principais técnicas
de gestão de mudanças utilizadas. A análise é construída com base na percepção
de consultores especializados e pioneiros na implantação da gestão por resultados
em organizações brasileiras do setor público. É pautada em entrevistas em
profundidade, realizadas em janeiro e fevereiro de 2010. Trata-se de uma pesquisa
fenomenográfica. A fenomenografia é estudo empírico sobre as diferentes formas
de como as pessoas experimentam, interpretam, percebem, apreendem,
compreendem e conceituam um fenômeno, um assunto ou um determinado
aspecto da realidade. O objetivo central dessa teoria é compreender os fenômenos
a partir do ponto de vista de quem os vivencia. É análise coletiva das experiências
individuais. A pesquisa identifica quatro espaços de resultados: i) Fatores
impulsionadores, externos e internos à organização; Dimensões impactadas, da
estratégia à cultura; iii) Fatores críticos à mudança, tanto organizacionais quanto
individuais; e iv) Métodos de gestão de mudança. A pesquisa conclui que os
resultados obtidos durante a fase de implantação do modelo Gestão por
Resultados geram uma experimentação positiva na instituição que o adota, que
acaba por estimular a busca por resultados e excitar a adequação do arcabouço
institucional, o que, conseqüentemente, tende, em longo prazo, ainda que de
forma intermitente, a fomentar a adoção de práticas de gestão por resultados por
outras organizações do setor público brasileiro. / [en] This study aims to analyze the impacts generated by the adoption of the
model Managing for Results in Brazilian public sector organizations, with four
approaches: i) identify factors that stimulate the adoption of this management
model; II) to analyze the organizational dimensions impacted; (iii) discuss the
factors constraining and facilitating the implementation of this model, both
organizational and individual, and (iv) identify the main techniques used in
change management. The analysis is built on the perception of expert consultants
and pioneers in the implementation of managing for results in Brazilian public
sector organizations. It is based on interviews held in January and February 2010.
This is a phenomenographic study. Phenomenography is empirical study on the
different ways of how people experience, interpret, understand, perceive,
understand and conceptualize a phenomenon, a subject or a certain aspect of
reality. The main objective of this theory is to understand the phenomena from the
viewpoint of those who experience them. It s collective analysis of individual
experiences. The research identifies four areas of results: i) Factors boosters,
external and internal to the organization; Dimensions impacted, the culture and
the strategy, iii) critical factors for change, organizational and individual, and iv)
methods of change management. The research concludes that the results obtained
during the implementation of Managing for Results model experiments generate a
positive institution that adopts it, which ultimately stimulate the search for
exciting results and the adequacy of the institutional framework, which
consequently tends long-term, albeit intermittently, to promote the adoption of
practices to manage for results by other public sector organizations in Brazil.
