1. Informed opportunism
Renewing organization set direction
Have not detail strategy Treat information as their main strategic advantage

Flexibility as their main strategic weapon

2. Direction and empowerment


Renewing companies treat everyone as a source of

creative input They give up some control over subordinate to gain what counts: Results

3. Friendly facts
Renewing companies treat facts as friends
Financial control as liberating They love facts and information that remove decision

making from mere opinion

4. Different mirror

anticipate crises Willingness to listen all sources-to look into different mirror

5. Team work and trust


Renewing constantly use such words as teamwork

and trust They are relentless (persistence) at fighting office politics

6. Stability in motion
Renewing companies know how to keep thing moving
They undergo constant change against a base of

underlying stability

7. Attitude and attention


Visible management attention gets thing done
Action may start with words but must backed by

behaviour

8. Causes and commitment


Renewing organization run on causes
Commitment result from management ability to run

grand cause into small action so that every one can contribute

Approaches to change
Satiability and adaption are essential to continued

survival and growth Organization that operate in mature field with stable product and relatively few competitors need different adaptive orientation than : Firm operating in high growth market , among numerous competitors, and with high degree of innovation

Stable environment characteristic

Unchanging basic product and services Static level of competition A low level of technological innovation Formalized and centralized structure Slow steady rate of growth

Hyper turbulent environment


Rapidly changing product line 2. Increasing and changing set of information 3. Rapid and continual technology innovation 4. Rapid market growth

Approaches to change
Static organization can no longer survive Organization must device methods of continues self

renewal Organization must recognize when it is necessary to change Must develop ability to implement change when needed To meet this condition many companies have created OD units These units develop new programs to help the organization improve its adaption to its environment and maintain stable identity

A model of adaptive orientation


Sluggish-Thermostat(stable environment, low adoption ) 2. Satisficing management (stable environment , high adoption) 3. Reactive management (hyper turbulent environment- low adoption) 4. Renewing /transformational management (hyper turbulent environment , high adoption )

Sluggish-Thermostat(stable environment, low adoption )


David miller describe organization resist change until

cost trade off favour it Organizations set their thermostat so low that they become incentive to change

Sluggish management
Refers to managerial style based on:
1. 2.

3.
4. 5. 6. 7. 8.

Low risk Formalized procedure High degree of structure and control Organizations have very stable goals High centralized structure Tend to have more managerial level High ratio of superiors to subordinate Emphasis upon formal control system

Sluggish management
There may be tendency to value tradition
Keep on doing things as they have always been done to

value seniority more than performance To be adverse to accept new idea Although this is low risk style of management, it may lead to serious problem in long run

Satisfying management (stable environment , high adoption)


Management that is adequate and average Style of management that emphasize a more centralized

decision making structure with problem referred to top Because of stable environment here tend to be more levels of management, with coordination done by formal coordination Such organization often tend to accept strategies that are good enough because of the low level of pressure from environment

Reactive management (hyper turbulent environment- low adoption)


Rapidly change environment Low level of adoption Tend to deal with problem on short run, crises basis Reactive management: style of reacting to stimulus after

conditions in the environment have changed It is Short term Crises type of adoption Often involve replacement of key people Hasty organization Drastic cutting of personnel and product line

Renewing /transformational management (hyper turbulent environment , high adoption )


Respond to change and must proactively take advantage of

new opportunity and innovation These organizations tend to fit the renewal/transformational orientation Champion of innovation Faster at developing new idea More responsive to competitive change More participative in getting commitment Involvement of organization members in renewal process Organization utilize renewing managerial style

Renewing /transformational management


Introducing change to deal with future condition

before these condition actually occur General motors, 3M, IBM( on demand product) Renewing management orientation has both ability and need to respond to hyper turbulent environment Most modern organization are increasingly finding the need for adoptive organization

The system approach: Findings new ways to work together


View the organization as a unified system composed of

interrelated units Mangers look at the organization as a whole and part of larger external environment In downsizing mangers may be used system approach to determine how to cut cost One approach is Horizontal corporation: break the component into key process and creates team from different department to run them Communication with employees and customer

Qualities of system
System must be design to accomplish an objective
The element of system must have an established

arrangement Interrelation must exist among the individual elements of system The basic ingredients of process(the flow of information, energy, and materials) are more vital than the basic element of system Organization overall objectives are more important than the objective of elements

The organization as an open system


Flow of information, personnel, and material
Time and change become critical aspect Three basic element of such system

1. Inputs are the resources that are applied to the

process function 2. Process are activities and function that are performed to produced goal 3. Outputs products are services produced by the organization
