The impact of change on performance

The impact of change on performance Organisations today are under siege from a variety of areas, but perhaps the one that has created the largest impact is the need to improve performance. When all organisations are faced with absorbing change at an ever-increasing rate, the ability to improve performance while undergoing change is critical to long-term success. In order to increase one's ability to be effective in this effort, an organisation needs to look at several interrelated dynamics, including: How employees make the connection between what they do, and how they do it; the clarity of understanding around principles and organisational values; understanding the fact that structure drives behaviour; and planning by outcomes. This paper outlines how these dynamics interrelate, as well as how to help ensure that your organisation can realise its performance potential while undergoing change. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Change Management Taylor & Francis

Abstract

Organisations today are under siege from a variety of areas, but perhaps the one that has created the largest impact is the need to improve performance. When all organisations are faced with absorbing change at an ever-increasing rate, the ability to improve performance while undergoing change is critical to long-term success. In order to increase one's ability to be effective in this effort, an organisation needs to look at several interrelated dynamics, including: How employees make the connection between what they do, and how they do it; the clarity of understanding around principles and organisational values; understanding the fact that structure drives behaviour; and planning by outcomes. This paper outlines how these dynamics interrelate, as well as how to help ensure that your organisation can realise its performance potential while undergoing change.
