An Introduction to Change

A Study On Implementation Of Change In Bargarh Cement Works, Bargarh CHAPTER -1 AN INTRODUCTION TO CHANGE ___________________________________________________________________

1.1

INTRODUCTION

Change is inevitable in the history of any organisation. It is a necessary way of life in most organisations. In fact, change is all around us in the seasons, in social environment and in biological process. Organisations, which do not change or keep pace with the changing environment suffer from entropy and soon become defunct. Organisations, which do not adopt change, find it difficult or even impossible to survive. Organisations have an internal environment but exist in external environment. The internal environment is in terms of tasks, structure, technology, social people! and economic variables, while the external environment is in terms of larger social, political, economic and cultural factors. To function effectively, organisations have to achieve e"uilibrium with in the internal variables in active interaction with each other and also with an external environment. #owever, this e"uilibrium is not static but dynamic.

1.2

DEFINITION Change can be defined as an alternation in the existing field of forces, which tends

to affect the e"uilibrium. Change refers to making things different.

NEED FOR CHANGE Change is very much needed to succeed in the competitive world. %o change is

re"uired &. $. '. (. ). +. To reduce the cost of production. To increase the profit. To increase the employee turnover. To reduce the role conflict. *or expansion and growth of the enterprises. To improve the living and working standard of employees.

CHANGES CONFRONTING WORK ORGANISATIONS TODAY

, short list of changes is given below which confront work organisations today. a! Technological innovations have multiplied- products and know.how are fast becoming obsolete. b! c! d! e! f! g! h! /asic resources have progressively become more expensive. Competition has sharply increased. Communication and computers have reduced the time needed to make decisions. 0nvironmental and consumer interest groups have become highly influential. The drive for social e"uity has gained momentum. The economic independence among countries has become more apparent. Issue of 1lobal warming forcing organisations for a sustainable development. These and many other changes compel organisations to cope with the environment and become more adaptive. If they do not adapt to the circumstances, they become extinct.

FORCES FOR CHANGE Organisational changes are re"uired to maintain e"uilibrium between

various external and internal forces to achieve organisational goals. 2ore and more organisations today face a dynamic and changing environment. This, in turn, is re"uiring these organisations to adapt 3change or die4 is the rallying cry among today5s managers worldwide.

EXTERNAL FORCES 0very organisation co.exists in some context. 6o organisation is an island in itself. 0ach must continually interact with other organisations and individuals the consumers, suppliers, unions, shareholders, government and many more. 0ach organisation has goals and responsibility related to other in its environment. The present day environment is dynamic and will continue to be dynamic in social, political, economic, technological and legal terms. The changes brought on the above may result in organisational changes like ma7or functions, production process, labour management relations, nature of competition, economic constraints, organisation methods etc. In order to survive, the organisation must change. 8et us see in detail the external forces for change.

synonymous with economic progress. 2ankind had made "uantum leaps in living standards and economic levels through the use of specific technologies in the past.

with the advent of science based technologies like genetic engineering,

super conductivity, bionics, optronics, micro.electronics, material sciences, artificial intelligence, fi::y logics, etc. 9hen there is a change in technology in the organisation5s environment and other organisations adopt the new technology, the organisation under focus becomes less cost effective and its competitive position weakens. Therefore it has to adapt new technology. 9hen the organisation adopts a new technology, its work structure is affected and a new e"uilibrium has to be established. *or example, computers and automation have made significant impact on organisational functioning, many 7obs are reshaped. 9ork teams whose members can perform multiple tasks are replacing individual doing narrow, specialised and routine 7obs. (') C#()e*+*+#"4 . Competition is changing. The global economy means that

competitors are as likely to come across the ocean. %ince every organisation exports its outputs to environment, an organisation has to face competition in the market. There may be two types of forces, which may affect the competitive position of an organisation. other organisations supplying the products, and buyers who are buying the products. ,ny change in these forces may re"uire suitable changes in the organisation. ( ) E #"#(+ +,,-e,4 Tomorrow is essentially an extended trend line from

yesterday. That5s no longer true. 9ith the sky shooting of current oil prices and rising inflation world over, economic shocks have continued to impose on organisations. In recent years, interest rates have become volatile and the economics of individual countries have become more interdependent. 9hen interest rates rise, the markets for new home loans and refinancing declines.

and their way of working. %ocial changes have taken place because of the several forces like level of education, urbanisation, feeling of autonomy and international impact due to new information sources.

RESISTANCE TO CHANGE

INTRODUCTION
Introduction of change is a highly complex process. The uncertainties caused by

the expected changes and dise"uilibrium, as a conse"uence of change, sometimes results ? MP-011893236 Saroj Kumar Mishra

A Study On Implementation Of Change In Bargarh Cement Works, Bargarh in resistance to change. The resistance may result in decline in production, decrease in rates of turnover, absenteeism, strikes and so on. @esistance to change arises from individual5s problem rather than technical problem of change. 1enerally resistance is always perceived as bad. In fact, there are two sides of resistance as a cost and as benefit. (a) Re,+,*a" e a, a C#,*4 %ince all changes have some cost so it is the resistance to change. If people resist changing, the organisation may not be able to introduce new phenomena in order to adapt environmental re"uirement and its basic survival may be 7eopardi:ed. In fact, many organisations have been forced to abandon change programmes because of resistance to such programmes, or they have been forced to adapt alternative strategies, like shifting of the manufacturing plants at new locations, which costs much. 2any companies have been forced to do so in the past. (') Re,+,*a" e a, 5e"e1+*4 On one hand, resistance to change is a costly affair- on the

other hand, it provides some benefits to the organisations and its change agent. @esistance by some members of the organisation provides an opportunity to the change agents to weigh the cons of introducing change more carefully. 9hile introducing a change emphasises only its positive side, resistance to change emphasises on negative side. The reality lies in between. @esistance to change forces management to find out this reality which helps in managing change more effectively. Thus, resistance to change provides help in managing change in the following ways4 . &. It may signal the need for more effective communication about the meaning and purpose of a change or need to rethink how a proposed change will affect the organisation and its members. $. '. It also highlights the real inade"uacies in the proposed change and suggests better It brings to the notice of the planners the likely difficulties in the ways for developing and introducing changes. implementation of change. %o resistance at least gives lead to better implementation of change. (. @esistance may bring to the attention of those involved in introducing change factors that are likely to disrupt the cultural fabric, or threaten core values of the groups. 2.2 FACTORS IN RESISTANCE TO CHANGE warning which if needed can

A Study On Implementation Of Change In Bargarh Cement Works, Bargarh ;eople tend to evaluate the effect of change individually but they express it through group in collective form. Therefore, the reasons underlying resistance to change may be identified at these three levels. A. INDI6IDUAL RESISTANCE There are many factors operating at the individual level, which are responsible for resistance. Begree of force in resistance depends on how people feel about change. These feelings may be based either on reality or there may be emotional feeling towards the change. These feelings, either real or emotional, may be seen in the context of three types of factors. (a) E #"#(+ Fa *#0,4 ;eople feel attached to the organisation for satisfying their needs and economic needs psychological, 7ob security, ect. proceed over other needs. ;eople may perceive that they will be adversely affected by the change in terms of their need satisfaction. They are4. i! ii! iii! (') %kill Obsolescence *ear of 0conomic 8oss @educed opportunity for Incentives

towards change. These are "ualitative and therefore, may be logical from people5s point of view but may be illogical from the change agent5s point of view. 2a7or psychological factors responsible for resistance are as follows. i! ii! iii! iv! v!

S# +a$ Fa *#0, ;eople derive need satisfaction, particular social needs, through their mutual

compatible interactions. They form their own social groups at the work place for the satisfaction of their social needs. To the extent the satisfaction of these needs is affected by a change, people resist it. The ma7or social factors causing resistance to change are as follows4 &D MP-011893236 Saroj Kumar Mishra

GROU/ RESISTANCE ;eople may perceive the likely impact of a change individually but they express it

in the form of group response. Therefore, their evaluation is sub7ect to the modification by group behaviour. Thus group itself becomes a source of resistance. The effect of group as a source of resistance may be analysed in term of nature of group dynamics and vested interests. (a) Na*-0e #1 G0#-) D&"a(+ ,4 1roup dynamics refers to the force, which operate in

a group determining behaviour of its members. These forces determine how effective a group would be in accepting or re7ecting a change. The belongingness, attractiveness, attitudes, values, influence and group norms are the important nature of group dynamics. (') 6e,*e. I"*e0e,*,4 In a group some members are appointed as a leader formally

or informally due to their influence. These persons may use the group as a means for satisfying their own needs. These vested interests try to influence the group behaviour in the form of a uniform response to a change but based on their personal- interest. C. ORGANISATIONAL INTEREST 6ot only individuals and groups within organisation resist change even the organisation itself resist many changes because of certain reasons. 2any organisations tend to stabilise at a particular level and if the change efforts are not brought, these organisation starts falling. The ma7or reasons for organisational failure to change are as follows4 (a) C#-"*+"% /a,* S- e,,4 Organisations have achieved success by following a

particular set of management practices and past success stories, they become rigid to change and they hide failure to change in the guise of past success. (') S*a'+$+*& #1 S&,*e(4 The organisation may design a system and is stabilised with it

and any change may be perceived a threat by the organisation itself. The organisation may not bring change easily because it is accustomed to a particular system.

It gives a complete picture of the company which enables the employees to stay current and up to date with the policies and activities formulated time to time.

7.1 CONCLUSION
,s the plant was at a state of transfer from government hand to private party, there were lots changes to be brought in, right from the organisational structure to the work ethics, creating a different conducive work environment for the employees, implementing the corporate policies of ,CC and spreading the basic principle of profit maximisation without compromising the "uality of product, safety and welfare of the employees. /y going through the analysis and evaluations of the data of /C9, /argarh and the above profile of ,CC 8td which explains the standard policies and norms, following conclusions are drawn. 9ork environment in the company is not so conducive for the employees. The most of the policies for changes formulated by the management alone with minimum participation of the workers. 2a7or changes and modifications are re"uired in work ethics for smooth functioning of employees. 8eaders are the person who plan and initiate changes and they are not showing much interest to motivate employees in the change process. Communication is not prompt and not communicating the full facts. %o, if the changes implemented on work environment are not satisfactory, this may demotivate the employees and in turn it effects on the performance and productivity of the organisation. #ere, though the changes brought on work methods and organisational structure are good, still a lots of home work to be done by the management to implement the changes effectively and efficiently. In the study, it is found that the management5s role towards implementing change is effective up to an extent for employees. Training, psychological counselling and group dynamics programmes on change are effectively conducted by the management. The participation of employees in the change process is one of the main factor in which the management5s effort is good.

7.2 S-%%e,*+#", E O',e0:a*+#", E C#" $-,+#",


The following ,meliorations are recommended to management to make the change process effective and the resistance can be overcome. The policy for change is to be formulated in a participatoryI democratic manner only with ade"uate participation Isuggestion from employees. 9orking conditions should be made conducive for the employees so that they feel happy and contribute more to the organisation. 2anagement is suggested to bring out good structural changes, which help in smooth functioning of employees. Organisational policies and procedures, departmentalisation, 7ob design, 7ob identification, span of control, coordination mechanism, power structure and flow of task are the elements of structure to be modified to make the employees comfortable in the structure so that the set organisational goals and ob7ectives are achieved. 8eadership should take active step in change programme. , 8eader should be a transformational leader who can use personal reason for change. #e should reinforce a climate of psychological support and cooperation for change. #e should understand the psychological needs of employees7. 2anagement should support and encourage the group contact programme. Through group, the reason for change, benefits of change and how the benefits of change will share among organisation and its members can be made clear. The meaningful and continuous dialogue and free flow of information help people to understand the real picture of change and many misunderstandings may be avoided.

MP-011893236 Saroj Kumar Mishra

A Study On Implementation Of Change In Bargarh Cement Works, Bargarh The source of resistance lies in misinformation or poor communication. 0mployees who are affected change need advance information about the reason for change, its nature, its planning time and the impact it is likely to have on the organisation and personnel. %o, the management is suggested to communicate the full facts and get any misunderstanding cleared up, through one.on. one discussions, memos, group presentations or reports. 9hen lines of communication are kept open, people can get the information they need as well as communicate their concerns. The management should discourage the vested interest. %ome persons may be appointed as group leader formallyIinformally by the group to lead for their betterment, whereas these leaders try to influence group behaviour in the form of a uniform response to a change not based on the merit of the change but based on their personal interest to satisfy their own needs. The management should inform about the company5s futuresIoptions. The employees like to know about the company5s plans, missions, goals and ob7ectives. If these are informed, they will feel their importance in the organisation and it will boost their moral support to achieve the organisational goals. Training is an important mechanism for worker development. The training programme conducted by the management is appreciated, it is suggested to conduct more training programme to employees as and when there is any change in the organisational elements. This will change the basic values of the employees. The employees should educate to become familiar with changes, its process and working. They must be taught new skills, helped to change attitudes and indoctrinate in new relationships. The training helps to develop the interpersonal and intrapersonal skills. The counselling is an important mechanism to provide education on change to the employees. This helps in creating receptive environment in the organisation. ,lso its helps the employees in the personal life and work environment. The employees rated good to the psychological counselling programme conducted by management on change issues, still it is suggested to conduct more counselling programmes on this for its employees. ++ MP-011893236 Saroj Kumar Mishra

A Study On Implementation Of Change In Bargarh Cement Works, Bargarh

The management is suggested to adapt employee5s participation policies. The employee participation in policies Imanagement is a very potent mechanism for all round growth of employees. ;articipation of employees in the organisational change issues gives a feeling of their importance. They feel the organisation need their opinion and ideas and the organisation is unwilling to go ahead without taking them in account. 0mployees directly affected by change should be given opportunity to participate willingly in the decision process. They should be brought in the scene of change process and should be explained the facts of changes. 2anagement is suggested to have good relationship with the employees, which will make the employees to commit themselves voluntarily and publicly to take part effectively on the change issue. ,nd they will feel free to express their own views for change. 1roup Bynamic Training is a mechanism to train group members to recognise which processes are suitable to the tasks, what the results are and how members contribute. %o management should conduct more 1roup Bynamics Training Techni"ue such as role playing, psychodrama and sensitivity or T. group training. These techni"ues provide understanding of behaviour, which will build up the climate based on mutual trust, and understanding so essential for bringing organisational changes successfully. 2anagement is suggested to bring Technological changes in a planned and in phases. It is imperative to make the employees to understand the nature of technology and relevance of it to the organisation. Change agents are the person who plans and initiate desired change in the organisation. The consultant should perform their role like diagnosis of the situation, planning strategy for change, intervening in the system for change and even the evaluation of the change efforts in the context of various outcomes effectively. The internal change advisors should perform their role like communicating the concepts and methods of various change techni"ues to managers, helping managers to develop appropriate behaviour and skills for change process.

MP-011893236 Saroj Kumar Mishra

A Study On Implementation Of Change In Bargarh Cement Works, Bargarh The management should publish all information pertaining to change issues. Company 7ournal is one of the medium to inform the employees about change implemented Iposed. 2anagement is suggested to frame wage structure related to nature of work. The commission should consider the factors like nature of work, level of responsibility, hardship and risk involved in carrying out task while framing wage structure. There won5t be any disparity in the pay scale. The change on wage structure should satisfy the employees, which leads to good management and employees5 relationship. @ewardI,ward is one of the most effective factors of motivation. 2anagement should appreciate its employees for good work. The management is suggested to bring changes on @ewardI,ward and monetary incentive schemes for the best 7ob ones. The management is suggested to offer facilitation and supportive efforts to employees. This involves extra training in new skills or simply listening and providing emotional support. ,nd management can also smooth the change process by pointing out the personal benefits and giving employees time to ad7ust. The change can also be implemented in phases in an effort to minimise the upheaval. 2anagement should develop the 1rievances @edressal mechanism for the employees. The employees can directly put their problems to the grievance cell, which will promote positive interaction with the trade unions. This mechanism helps in developing an effective communication between employees and management. ,n effective communication helps in bringing the good relationships avoids communication gap between the management and employees. 7.3 DIRECTION FOR FUTURE RESEARCH
