Plan

1. So far we’ve talked about using PDSA cycles for testing a change, last week we talked about some basic principles for TESTING a change, build knowledge sequentially : on a small scale using multiple cycles. For implementing a change, especially a large scale one, multiple cycles or incremental steps may be required. Each step requires planning, action, and analysis. Think about large scale changes made within your own agencies. A new information system, a new program. For changes that are complex, manage the implementation as a series of cycles (similar to cycles used during the testing). It important to recognize the social aspects of implementing a complex change.So far we’ve talked about using PDSA cycles for testing a change, last week we talked about some basic principles for TESTING a change, build knowledge sequentially : on a small scale using multiple cycles.

4. What happens when a change is implemented? Due to the pace of change in the world environment, individuals need adaptive responses…Industrial organizational phsycologoists agree that an employees ability to adapt to change is becoming as critical to successful job performance as the needed cognitive ability People resist change because of habit, security, fear of the unknown, lack of awareness or social factors.
