As most managers/leaders know As most managers/leaders know from first-hand experience...from first-hand experience...
The primary maladaptation involves peoplepeople...…who enact differing views of reality
into what they define as the organizational reality (Weick,1979, 1995)
…and, thus, maladaptive behavior manifests itself in organizational dysfunction

Asserts that organization change begins first with self-change...…that is, if manager/leaders are to
initiate organizational change, they first must understand how they view the world
…because how individuals view reality is a critical element in how they formulate a decision (p. 3)
![Page 4: Choosing a path of change: Envisioning a strategy for successful organizational change MPA 8002 The Structure and Theory of Human Organization Richard.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110401/56649e035503460f94aeee2b/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Organizational change involves a Organizational change involves a five-step process...five-step process...
11 - to identify and understand one’s view of reality and attitudes toward change…requires managers/leaders to
grapple with all that is “antecedent” to a practice episode (Sergiovanni, 1986)
![Page 5: Choosing a path of change: Envisioning a strategy for successful organizational change MPA 8002 The Structure and Theory of Human Organization Richard.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110401/56649e035503460f94aeee2b/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
22 - to search for resources, people, money, and situations that match one’s image of what it will take to “work the larger issue”
…necessitates differentiating between organizational “problems” and the “issue” implicit in the problems
![Page 6: Choosing a path of change: Envisioning a strategy for successful organizational change MPA 8002 The Structure and Theory of Human Organization Richard.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110401/56649e035503460f94aeee2b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
33 - to engage team members in examining one another’s views of reality as well as each member’s assets and deficits…provides the experiential base of
self-reflection and understanding of alternative views that enables team members to assess the current organizational situation (“reality”)
![Page 7: Choosing a path of change: Envisioning a strategy for successful organizational change MPA 8002 The Structure and Theory of Human Organization Richard.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110401/56649e035503460f94aeee2b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
44 - to identify the organizational problem(s) and to organize resources into a coherent force…engages team members to identify
the maladaptation between people, process, and technology
…as these are attributed not to people but to the strengths and limitations of their differing views of reality
![Page 8: Choosing a path of change: Envisioning a strategy for successful organizational change MPA 8002 The Structure and Theory of Human Organization Richard.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110401/56649e035503460f94aeee2b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
55 - to formulate a path of change…a path that allows managers/leaders
to solve the organizational issue by inculturating shared values (Schein, 1990, 1992)
…as followers solve problems as they emerge because the changing patterns of the followers’ interactions require new solutions
![Page 9: Choosing a path of change: Envisioning a strategy for successful organizational change MPA 8002 The Structure and Theory of Human Organization Richard.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110401/56649e035503460f94aeee2b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

the conflicts between competing values

The grand path of organizational renaissance can begin with a desperate situation...
…where organizational action and outcomes are obsolete (e.g., “teddy bears” per Winnicott, 1958).
![Page 22: Choosing a path of change: Envisioning a strategy for successful organizational change MPA 8002 The Structure and Theory of Human Organization Richard.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110401/56649e035503460f94aeee2b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Or, organizational renaissance can begin in an entrepreneurial situation where an opportunity presents itself...
…and organizational action can pave the way for new possibilities...
