Deming’s Concept of Profound Knowledge

 "One need not be eminent in any part of profound knowledge in order to

understand it and to apply it. The various segments of the system of profound knowledge cannot be separated. They interact with each other. For example knowledge about psychology is incomplete without knowledge of variation."  

"The system of profound knowledge provides a lens. It provides a new map of theory by which to understand and optimize our organizations.“

What is to be Changed?

• Processes

• Behavior

Assessment of Change

• Quantitative Data– Measures

• Qualitative Observations– Observed Behavior Changes– Changed Beliefs, Attitudes, Values

We need them all to claim real change

Is There a General Theory of Change?

• Yes, if we build on Kurt Lewin’s social psychological theories of how all systems are in a state of “Quasi-stationary Equilibrium” based on multiple driving and restraining forces.

• What then are the elements and mechanisms of change?

Key Elements of Any Change

• Disconfirmation– Survival Anxiety/Guilt (SA)

• Proposed New Direction/Behavior– Learning Anxiety (LA)

• Difficulty of Unlearning • Fear of New Learning

• Resistance to Change

Edgar Schein, PhD, Sloan Fellows Professor of Management Emeritus and Senior Lecturer, Sloan School

Disconfirmation

• Any information that something is not happening in the way we expect or want– Produces motivation to change, usually felt

as Survival Anxiety or Guilt

• What are some examples of ways leadership can provide “disconfirmation”?

Proposed new direction

• The recognition of what we might have to do to solve the problem, to make the change produces Learning Anxiety

• We realize that the new behavior, attitude, value etc. wanted of us will be potentially painful and costly, especially if we have to unlearn the present behavior that we are used to.

Resistance to Change

• Is the result of…– Fear of period of incompetence

– Fear of loss of power/job/role

– Fear of loss of group membership

– Fear of loss of personal identity

– Your thoughts……

The Path to New Behavior

• Survival Anxiety must be greater than Learning Anxiety

• Increasing Survival Anxiety increases resistance

• Therefore, the key is to REDUCE LEARNING ANXIETY– By providing Psychological Safety for

Unlearning and New Learning

How to Provide Psychological Safety

• Provide a compelling positive vision–New behavior desired–Compelling reasons for new

behavior

• This is a Leadership role: paint the future vision!

Providing Psychological Safety

• Involve the learner in the learning process and provide choices on how to learn– This becomes a coaching role

How to Provide Psychological Safety

• Insure that incentive, reward and discipline processes are congruent with desired new behavior– Discussion: ideas and examples

• Provide resources for managing the unlearning and new learning– Time– Training/Coaching/Feedback– Role Models– Practice fields and opportunities (PDSAs!)– Support Groups

The Mechanism of Change

• New Behavior

• New reinforcements and rewards

• Cognitive Redefinition– New Semantics– New Adaptation Levels– New Judgment Criteria (Measurement)

Implications

• All changes undergo some version of this process if we study them carefully

• Change programs that fail are missing one or more of the elements described

• How the elements are managed is a very local phenomenon

• Change is a process that requires process skills

Change Concepts

• The change concept-Rainforest Café

• Lens to view the world

• Lean Thinking examples

Lean Thinking: Waste

Overproduction Producing more than neededProducing faster than needed

Waiting Time when a worker is idle

Transportation Any movement of material or information notessential for the process

Processing Operations that in reality do nothing

Inventory Anything more than immediate needs

Motion Motion of man or machine that is unnecessary

Correction Rework and inspection

What You Need to Do to Drive Change

• Prepare the environment-create the tension for change

• Use the new models to provide your team with the tools and new methods

• Reinforce by creating a more attractive future

• Use measurement to reinforce

• Continue the “visioning” process to connect the dots

Measurement Feedback Is Critical to the Change Process
