Organizational and Individual Causes of Resistance to Change (Essay Sample)Essay Tigers
This document discusses organizational and individual causes of resistance to change and how Lewin's theory of change can be used to overcome resistance. At the organizational level, structural inertia, limited focus of change efforts, and group inertia can cause resistance. Individuals may resist due to fear of the unknown, feelings of insecurity, or perception that changes threaten their interests. Lewin's three-stage model of unfreezing, transitioning, and freezing the new approach can help overcome resistance by preparing organizations and individuals for change and reinforcing the new approach.

Cyber crimes have grown with advances in computer technology. As computer use increased in business and government, it created new opportunities for criminals. Various forms of unauthorized access to classified files, financial information, and emails have occurred. Some see these actions as a form of "free speech" and do not believe restricting access to information is a crime. However, cyber crimes like computer hacking, identity theft, and accessing child pornography can be financially and emotionally devastating. While cyber crimes are often considered less violent than offline crimes, they still warrant legal penalties and ethical oversight to protect individuals and organizations online.
Cyber crime and regulations have become increasingly important issues as technology has advanced and more activities have moved online. Computers and the internet now provide access to information, communication, education, and business, but criminals also exploit these technologies. Various forms of cyber crime like cyber stalking, hacking, online pornography, and intellectual property theft negatively impact victims and society. Governments have begun implementing laws and systems to address these issues, but challenges remain in adequately protecting people and property in an online world.
Computer crime has existed since the dawn of computers in the late 1950s, with the first recorded computer crime occurring in 1958. As computer use grew throughout the 1960s and 1970s due to the increasing popularity of mainframe computers in businesses, reported computer crimes increased to hundreds per year by the mid-1970s, resulting in estimated annual losses of $300 million. Now in the modern internet era, computer crime continues to rise as networks and hacking tools become more widely accessible, enabling computer criminals to target vulnerable systems for over 30 years.
Asuh is an Islamic children's magazine published in Malaysia that teaches Islamic values and lessons to readers aged 6-12 in a simple way. It uses illustrations and colorful pages to make the content interesting and easy to understand. The magazine contains lessons on reading, exercises, facts, and other topics while promoting an Islamic message. However, the magazine could improve by addressing issues like spelling errors, uninteresting articles, and providing more useful information to help spread Islamic teachings.
This document presents a lesson plan that uses the lyrics of Don McLean's song "American Pie" to teach English through contextualizing references in the song to important songs, artists, and events from the late 1950s and 1960s rock 'n' roll era in the United States. The lesson analyzes allusions in the song to help identify musical influences from the 1950s period of innocence and optimism as well as social movements of the turbulent 1960s decade. Teachers are encouraged to use songs like "American Pie" as authentic materials that can enhance English lessons and improve students' skills at any level.
E-marketing presents many ethical and legal issues that organizations must address, including privacy, intellectual property, and fraud. Laws and regulations attempt to balance relevant stakeholder interests, though new technologies often outpace policy. Self-regulation through codes of ethics aims to foster trust and fairness, though critics argue incentives for compliance are insufficient. Emerging issues like online expression, jurisdiction, and governance require ongoing discussion to define appropriate norms and protections in the digital environment.
This document summarizes key points from Chapter 18 of the textbook Organizational Behavior. It addresses 4 study questions: 1) What is organizational design and how is it linked to strategy? 2) What is information technology and how is it used? 3) Can the design of a firm co-evolve with its environment? 4) How does a firm learn and continue to learn over time? The summary provides an overview of organizational design concepts, the role of information technology, environmental factors, and mechanisms for organizational learning.
This document summarizes key points from Chapter 17 of the textbook Organizational Behavior. It discusses 4 study questions: 1) the definition of strategy and how it relates to organizational goals, 2) the basic attributes of organizations including structure, control and centralization, 3) how work is organized through horizontal specialization and coordination methods, and 4) the characteristics of bureaucracies and common organizational structures like mechanistic, organic and hybrid forms. The summary provides an overview of the chapter's content on these topics in 3 sentences or less per question.
This document summarizes key points from Chapter 19 of the textbook Organizational Behavior. It discusses organizational culture, how to understand culture, managing culture, and using organizational development to improve firms. Specifically, it defines culture, describes how to analyze it using sagas, rituals, symbols, and shared values. It also outlines strategies to build, change, and reinforce culture as well as potential mistakes managers can make. Finally, it defines organizational development and describes interventions like surveys, meetings, and job redesign that can be used to improve external adaptation and internal integration.

The summary discusses concepts like societal goals, output goals, systems goals, formal structure, division of labor, control mechanisms, coordination methods, mechanistic and organic bureaucracies, and hybrid organizational structures.
This document summarizes key concepts from Chapter 16 of the textbook Organizational Behavior. It discusses organizational change as either transformational, resulting in major overhauls, or incremental and continuous. Planned change involves identifying performance gaps and implementing strategies like education and participation to manage resistance. Innovation requires strategies and cultures committed to new ideas, as well as structures that support innovation. Stress in changing environments stems from work and life demands, and can impact performance and health, so prevention and management techniques are important.
The document summarizes key concepts from Chapter 15 of the textbook Organizational Behavior. It discusses conflict, how conflict can be managed successfully through various strategies like collaboration and compromise, defines negotiation, and describes different negotiation strategies like distributive and integrative approaches. It also outlines third party roles that can assist in negotiations, like mediation and arbitration.
2. Introduction
The chapter:
Discusses a number of frameworks for
categorising change.
Explains why, in order to be effective, it
is necessary to understand the
differences between various types of
change.
2
3. Objectives
To:
Emphasise the complex nature of organisational
change;
Describe and discuss the multi-dimensional
nature of organisational change;
Analyse change situations in order to choose
appropriate methods of managing and
implementing change;
Recognise that there are limitations to the
‘common-sense’ approach to managing change
that assumes that change can be planned as a
logical. Step by step, sequence of activities.
This because of cultural, political and
leadership dynamics.

4. Background: A definition of strategy
Strategy is:
the direction and scope of an organisation over the
long term which achieves advantage for the
organisation through its configuration of resources
within a changing environment to meet the needs
of markets and to fulfill stakeholder expectations.

7. Varieties of change (Grundy)
Smooth incremental – evolves slowly, in a
systematic and predictable way.
Bumpy incremental – periods of relative quiet
interrupted by sudden bursts in the rate of
change (e.g. re-organisations).
Discontinuous – ‘divergent breakpoint’,
changes involving crisis, breakthrough,
response to high turbulence.

9. Varieties of change (Tushman et al)
Converging (fine-tuning) - trying to do better
what is already being done well.
Converging (incremental adaptation) - small
changes in response to small shifts in the
environment.
Discontinuous or frame-breaking – major,
rapid (spread over 18-24 months) and
revolutionary changes in strategy, structure,
people & processes in order to meet radically
new or different circumstances. Also termed
‘upheaval.’
Most organisations follow a pattern of
convergence/upheaval cycles. This pattern can
apply at all levels (department, unit, corporation).
9
10. Pressures for Frame-breaking Change
Industry discontinuities, e.g. sharp changes in
the legal, political or technological conditions
which shift the basis of competition
Product life-cycle shifts, i.e. strategic change
to fit the next stage of the cycle
Internal dynamics, e.g. new management
team, with different strategy preferences
10
11. Examples of Frame-breaking Change
Change of mission or core
values
Power shifts, resource re-
allocation
Total reorganization
New workflow procedures
New CEO coming from
outside

12. Scale of change (1) (Dunphy & Stace)
1. 1. Fine Tuning.
At departmental level.
Making re-alignments to ensure that
there is a match between strategy,
structure, people and processes.
1. 2. Incremental Adjustment.
Bit by bit changes to match the
changing environment.
Minor modifications to strategies or
structures…..
12
13. Scale of change (2) (Dunphy & Stace)
3. Modular Transformation.
Major realignment of one or more
departments or divisions.
Downsizing, re-engineering.
4. Corporate Transformation
(frame-breaking effecting the whole
organisation).
As described earlier as discontinuous or
frame-breaking change.
A contemporary research study found that
most organisations have been undergoing
types 3 & 4 change.

15. Phases of Emergent Versus
Planned Change (1)
Fine tuning and incremental
change are usually also seen as
emergent, ‘unfolding as it
happens’.
The organisation, an open system,
engages ‘naturally’ in emergent
change as it tries to maintain
equilibrium with its changing
environment.
15
16. Phases of Emergent Versus
Planned Change (2)
However, organizations that rely
only on making emergent change
may ignore ‘warning signs’ of the
need for more radical forms of
change, and the organisation will
suffer ‘strategic drift’, i.e. the
strategy and perceptions of the
organisation will become less and
less in tune with the environment.
16
17. Phases of Emergent Versus
Planned Change (3)
Some theorists argue that
PLANNED CHANGE that is also
frame-breaking may then be
necessary as a drastic remedy to
bring the organization back to
health.
17
18. “Logical Incrementalism” (1)
Quinn does not agree that change
is either emergent or planned.
Quinn believes that although
managers may have an idea of
the destination, they do not really
plan change in ‘big chunks’.
18
19. “Logical Incrementalism” (2)
Quinn says that managers:
Are flexible about how to get to the
destination.
Arrive at strategic change through
negotiation with stakeholders.
Allow strategic change to evolve
incrementally, although this is not piece-meal
or haphazard because it is based on agreed
purposes and involves constant critical re-
assessment.
The planned change process involves
opportunist learning as it goes along.
Logical instrumentalism is both emergent and
planned.
19
20. Predictable Change (1)
Some theorists think that change
might be neither wholly emergent nor
wholly planned.
Instead, change may reflect the
organisation’s LIFE-CYCLE.
Greiner identifies 4 stages or 5
phases through which organisations
go as they grow and develop.
20
21. Predictable Change (2)
Each of Greiner’s stages contains a
crisis period.
Stage 1 is entrepreneurial - survival
oriented.
Stage 2 is collective - based on division
of labour.
Stage 3 is formalised- based on
bureaucracy.
Stage 4 is elaborated - based on
problem oriented teams.

23. Predictable Change (3)
Greiner’s model is potentially useful in
identifying what stage an organization is at,
and therefore what type of change situation it
is in and will be in.
The model may therefore help an organisation
to plan change and predict the next crisis
point.
23
24. Diagnosing Change Situations
Diagnosis of change situations is not an
exact science.
Various diagnostic methods can be used
in combination, e.g. SWOT, PETS, multi-
cause diagrams.
Some more methods are now discussed.
24
25. Evolutionary Cycle of Competitive Behaviour - 1
Strebel has suggested a model that examines
the industry within which the organisation is
located, i.e. the organisation’s competitive
environment.
Two key concepts are:
the ‘evolutionary cycle of competitive behaviour.’
‘breakpoints’, when companies must change their
strategies in response to changes in competitors’
behaviour.
25
26. Evolutionary Cycle of Competitive Behaviour - 2
The cycle involves two main phases.
1. The DIVERGENT PHASE, based on
innovation/variety: beginning when
one organisation discovers a new
business opportunity, the industry as a
whole strives to create differentiated
products and services that add
customer value.
26
27. Evolutionary Cycle of Competitive Behaviour - 3
2. Eventually a breakpoint occurs, as the
emphasis shifts to the CONVERGENT
PHASE, based on efficiency/survival,
which begins with imitation of
competitors’ best features, and then
leads to an emphasis on reducing
costs. Competitors converge on total
quality management, continual
improvement & re-engineering to cut
costs and maintain market share. Only
the fittest survive.
3. Then back to 1, as further savings are
marginal.
27
28. Evolutionary Cycle of Competitive Behaviour - 4
Progressively, with cycle after cycle, industries
deliver both more customer value through
various generations of differentiation (e.g.
mobile phone technology) each followed by
more cost reduction.
Industries vary according to the relative emphasis on
divergent phases versus convergent phases

Spotting the breakpoints.
Formal Methods include:
Environmental scanning
Benchmarking
Monitoring, data collection and data interpretation
Detecting when a new divergent phase is about to begin
is more difficult because the new wave of innovation
cannot yet be seen.
Informal methods include:
Open-minded attitudes
Cooperation across the organisation
Culture supporting innovation and change

and approaches.
