Introduction. If organizations don’t successfully change and innovate, they die.
Changing People and Culture. Changes in how employees think Changes in mind-set People change = Training and development Culture change = Organizational development Large culture change is not easy.

Organizational Development. Planned, systematic process of change using behavioral science Addresses three types of problems: Mergers and acquisitions Organizational decline and revitalization Conflict management.
OD Activities. Team-building activities Survey-feedback activities Large-group interventions OD Steps: Unfreezing Changing Refreezing.

11.7 - Force-Field Analysis. Change is a result of the competition between driving and restraining forces Driving forces – problems or opportunities that provide motivation for change Restraining forces – barriers to change.
What does the Force field analysis do?. In force field analysis, first the driving forces and the restraining forces are recognized. Then the restraining forces are eliminated and the driving forces are further strengthened This will help the driving forces dominate restraining forces in a given change and thus it will help in the implementation of the change.
