Strategic Responsiveness
Change implementation: actions taken by organizational leaders in order to support strategic renewal and maintain outstanding performance in a dynamic environment.
Strategic renewal: change in an organization’s strategy through a process of creating new business models, new products, services, capabilities, and knowledge bases.
Successful organizations cannot remain static if they hope to continue that success; they must change in

Transformational Change
Effective strategic renewal efforts combine aspects of turnaround, tools and techniques, and transformational behavioral change.
Transformational organizational change seeks to create long-term, sustainable alterations in employee behaviors.
The way employees conduct themselves at work impacts the bottom-line performance of the company.
Behavior comes from both the individual and the organizational context in which the individual works.

Building a Vocabulary Resistance: efforts exerted by
employees either overtly or covertly to maintain the status quo.
“Employee response to change runs across a broad spectrum, ranging from commitment at one end to aggressive resistance” on the other. Each
of these reactions to change helps shape the behavior of individuals and, ultimately, the
success of a change effort.”

Individuals may be satisfied with the status quo. Because their needs are being met, they may view any potential change as negative.
Individuals may view change as a threat, fearing it will adversely affect them in some significant way.
Individuals may understand that change brings both benefits and costs, but feel that the costs far outweigh the benefits.
Individuals may view change as potentially positive, but may still resist because they believe that the organization’s management is mishandling the change process.
Individuals may believe in the change effort ,but still believe that the change is not likely to succeed.

Participation: A Key to Effective Change
Participation: the process of allowing employees a voice in work-related decisions.
“By diagnosing problems, understanding their importance, and being part of the process of
formulating solutions, people develop a psychological sense of ownership over the outcome.
That ownership now creates in employees the heightened motivation to implement change in order
to achieve desired goals.”

Building a Vocabulary Trigger event: a shift in the environment
that precipitates a need for organizational change“Trigger events … are so named because their magnitude and potential for organizational as well as personal impact set into
motion a series of mental shifts as individuals strive to understand and redefine a situation. By their very nature, they unbalance established routines and evoke conscious thought on the part of organizational members. They stir up feelings and emotions that come to affect people’s reactions to the
change. In short, trigger events bring people’s mindsets into the arena of change.”

Reasons Why Globalization Might Require Change They may seek to outsource certain activities that
had previously been performed in the home country. They may seek to enter new, nondomestic markets. They may seek nondomestic suppliers for needed
raw materials. They may seek strategic alliances with related
companies in other countries. They may seek to locate research and development
activities in multiple nations as a way of better understanding the needs of nondomestic customers.
