What is hard systems management of change (HSMC)?

Method to design and manage change


Roots is systems engineering/project management


Rigourous, systematic, protective



Emphasise means to achieve set goals

PHASES and STAGES

Description


1. Sit. summary


2. ID. obj. & const


3. ID perf. measures



Options


4. Generate options


5. Edit and detail options


6. Evaluate options against measures



Implementation


7. Develop implementation strategies


8. Carry out planned change

3 phases, 8 stages

DESCRIPTION PHASE (a)

Stage 1


Don't rush it


Involve everyone concerned


Reach consensus about the reason for change


Describe the context where change will be implemented



End of analysis: "what and to what extent".

Four actions

DESCRIPTION PHASE (b)

Stage 2


Identify & list objectives: arrange by hierarchy (OBJECTIVE TREE)


List constraints: are they...UNAVOIDABLE? ...MODIFYABLE?

Build the 🌲, observe it!

DESCRIPTION PHASE (c)

Stage 3


Identify performance measures:


"how will we know whether (or to what extent) we have achieved the objective?


Quantifiable measures


Ranking (for unquantifiable)


Formulate measures and add them to objective tree in brackets

Decorate the 🌲 with measures!

OPTION PHASE (d)

Stage 4


Keep in mind: objectives and options (what and how)


Draw a list of options by brainstorming, focus groups, interviews, Research


Org. Comparisons/benchmark​ing



End of stage 4:


clear set of specific ideas to support. Promote the achievement of change objectives

Trace paths in map

OPTION PHASE (e)

Stage 5


Editing/detailing specific options


Array options in terms of feasibility (given context in stage 1 and constraints stage 2)


Describe: what, who is involved, and how will it work


May use: simulations, cash flow models, scale plans, cost/benefit analyses, culture analysis.



Stage 6


Evaluate options against measures

Organise & prioritize

IMPLEMENTATION PHASE

Stage 7


3 implementation strategies:


A) pilot studies: - can cause delay


B) parallel running


C) big bang: + more speed - resistance, high risk of failure



Stage 8


Carry out planned change (& time to bed in)


Monitoring and feedback from employees is important

DIAGNOSTIC MODELS

*Open systems model



* Lewin force field theory: driving forces vs restraining forces (unfreeze, move, refreeze)



* Organisation's environment "fit" models: PEST, SWOT



* Internal alignment models:


✓Pascale & Athos' 7S model:


shared values, strategy, structure, systems, skills, staff, style


✓Weisbord 6 box model:


purpose structure, relationships, rewards, leadership, helpful mechanisms



5 models: kotter, Lewin, org, 7S, 6BOX
