An insight into management of organisational change projects

Abstract

This article offers a “project” perspective on managing change, a view that starts by recognising the aspect of organisational change implementation, and develops to embrace a focused range of gaps and behavioural issues which determine the success or failure of change programmes. There are indications that the effort invested in closing those implementation gaps could concurrently remove the behavioural concepts on implementing organisational change projects. It is supported by findings based on the empirical evidence from the author’s own research and consultancy experiences, and on data collected from investigation of a sample of UK‐based organisations during 1996‐98. Some suggestions for further research are offered.
