  2. What is change? "There is a pattern underlying the eight lessons of dynamic change and it concerns one's ability to work with polar opposites: simultaneously pushing for change while allowing self-learning to unfold; being prepared for a journey of uncertainty; seeing problems as sources of creative resolution; having a vision, but not being blinded by it; valuing the individual and the group; incorporating centralizing and decentralizing forces; being internally cohesive, but externally oriented; and valuing, personal change agentry as the route to system change, Fullan (1993).”

  3. Main Points • Michael Fullan (1993) lists eight “basic lessons” that can be learned about the process of change and improvement: • 1. The more complex the change, the less you can force it. • 2. Change is non-linear, loaded with uncertainty and excitement and sometimes perverse. • 3. Problems are inevitable and you can’t learn without them. • 4. Vision and strategic planning come later. • 5. There are no one-sided solutions to isolation and group think. • 6. Both top-down and bottom-up strategies are necessary. • 7. The best organizations learn externally as well as internally. • 8. Change is too important to leave to the experts, personal mind set and mastery is the ultimate protection

  9. Something New: Change Theory • Management Challenges for the 21st Century by Peter F. Drucker • Drucker sees the period we're living in as one of "PROFOUND TRANSITION” and says that there are five social and political certainties that will shape business strategy in the not-too-distant future: • the collapsing birthrate in the developed world • shifts in distribution of disposable income • a redefinition of corporate performance • global competitiveness • and the growing incongruence between economic and political reality. • Drucker looks at requirements for leadership • "One cannot manage change. One can only be ahead of it” • characteristics of the "new information revolution" • one should focus on the meaning of information, not the technology that collects it • productivity of the knowledge worker (unlike manual workers, knowledge workers must be seen as capital assets, not costs) • the responsibilities that knowledge workers must assume in managing themselves and their careers.
