As time passes I am more and more convinced that this is ultimately how any change happens. For all the change initiatives that keep people busy at work, the strategising, the PowerPoints, the endless meetings, nothing happens until one person has a conversation with another and the other person thinks "Right, I'm having some of that!". We use slightly disparaging words such as viral for this kind of change, as if it was somehow under the radar, unofficial, risky.

This brings a shared vocabulary and understanding of what needs to change and why. Assessment : an independent assessment of where you are in your processes, and what are the opportunities for change. Strategy Session : here the goal is to determine the path to change.

As those small actions start to build the underlying attitudes and beliefs change and then, maybe, the bigger initiatives will have impact and traction. The post Avoiding paralysis in major change appeared first on Cognitive Edge.

I have identified two learning competencies — Learning How to Learn & Adapting to Continuous Change. The bottom line is that these kinds of changes to workplace learning and development will take time and effort. Change takes time.

adapting to constant change
Harold Jarche
OCTOBER 3, 2018
The future of [human] work is perpetual beta : adapting to constant change while still getting things done. The human work of tomorrow will not be based on competencies best-suited for machines, because creative work that is continuously changing cannot be replicated by machines or code.
#3 Organizational Structures Have Changed
Nine Shift
OCTOBER 31, 2019
The Org Chart is dead. Leaders are now befuddled about being inbetween the organizational pyramid of the last century and the organizational network of this century. Organizational structures have been flattened, dispersed, contracted out. The org chart is dead. What business leaders report is that the network is faster, more productive and more profitable than the pyramid. At LERN we have not done an org chart for 25 years, since we went virtual. We predicted this as Shift Three.
Changing Schools, Changing Knowledge: The Agenda

Habitual change

Then I had the Diabetes diagnosis and that triggered drastic change which allowed me to start the Round Wales Walk and return to the mountains of Snowdonia not to mention discovering the Brecon Beacons anew. The post Habitual change appeared first on Cognitive Edge.
Real change
Euen Semple
OCTOBER 24, 2016
So much organisational change fails because either it is a token gesture at an organisational level, or people don't buy into the change individually. I am convinced that all change emanates from the individual. Structural and procedural changes can help but unless people change nothing changes. There is an intimacy about real personal change that most in corporate life back away from, or sanitise with process.
Learning Tools and Uni Change

Yes, many institutions are creating central bodies to support faculty in improving their classes, but those folks are relatively powerless to substantially change the pedagogy unless they happen to have an eager faculty member.

Changing People
Euen Semple
JUNE 5, 2018
I've expressed concern previously about use the phrase "driving change" but now realise that my true discomfort goes deeper. What bothers me is the underlying assumption that we can change other people - or have the right to try. We can change our own behaviours, we can change processes and structures, but we can’t change people - only they can.
Addressing Changes
Clark Quinn
OCTOBER 25, 2017
Yesterday, I listed some of the major changes that L&D needs to acknowledge. As serious practitioners in a potentially valuable field, we need to adapt to the changing environment as much as we need to assist our charges to do so. We’re already seeing a wide variety of converging evidence that these changes lead to success. The post Addressing Changes appeared first on Learnlets. What we need now is to look at the top steps that need to be taken.
The Challenges of Automation in a Fast Changing Economy
Irving Wladawsky-Berger
AUGUST 5, 2019
Because automation occurs at the task level, it often changes jobs partially rather than eliminates them, though in limited cases, technology can automate an entire job.”. However, many workers will see their jobs change, as future jobs will require different skills.

Acknowledging Changes
Clark Quinn
OCTOBER 24, 2017
There are a serious number of changes that are affecting organizations. We’re seeing changes in the information flow, in technology, and in what we know about ourselves. What are these changes? The post Acknowledging Changes appeared first on Learnlets. Importantly, these are things that L&D needs to acknowledge and respond to. It’s old news that things are happening faster. We’re being overwhelmed with information, and that rate is accelerating.

Supporting change
Euen Semple
MARCH 14, 2018
Two conversations yesterday reminded me of how important training or other forms of support are when implementing large change projects whether involving new technology or new processes. The second conversation was again about a big change effort but this time the plan was to offer an extensive programme of coaching. Coaching targeted at helping people understand the why of the new processes and to grapple with what the changes mean to them.
Driving change
Euen Semple
MAY 24, 2018
Every time I hear the word "driving" used in the context of business I wince. It reveals so many misconceptions: that the person using it is in charge; that people can be driven like cattle; that there aren't consequences to using the word. The false macho fools no one. The use of it distances those "being driven" and they disengage. And then to solve this problem you set up an "employee engagement programme"!

How Large Systems Change
George Siemens
SEPTEMBER 3, 2013
Proclamations of systemic change, particularly in higher education, are more hype than reality. While there is some pressure, most pronounced in the US, for change to the big residential model of higher education, globally the demand is strong knowledge institutions. I recently delivered a talk at UniSA on the topic of how large systems change. Big systems, in periods of big change, experience structural and institutional change.
an unstoppable force for change
Harold Jarche
OCTOBER 20, 2015
Societies change their basic organizing structures when the primary mode of communication changes [T+I+M+N]: from oral, to writing, to print, and now to electric (digital). As we shift our dominant communications medium from print to electric, our organizing methods must change as well.

Millennials Impacting Change Via Voting

Millennials, especially the downtown college oriented knowledge worker Gen Yers, may be impacting change by also stepping up to vote. Nicely symbolic of the change is the fact that Pressley will represent the congressional district that John F.

Changing Culture: Changing the Game
Clark Quinn
JUNE 13, 2014
I previously wrote about Sutton & Rao’s Scaling up Excellence , and have now finished a quick read of Connors & Smith’s Change the Culture, Change the Game. Sutton & Rao’s was very descriptive of the changes they observed and the emergent lessons. They aptly point out that many change initiatives stop at the second step, and don’t get the necessity of the subsequent two steps.
Human Capital and the Changing Nature of Work
Irving Wladawsky-Berger
DECEMBER 24, 2018
But on balance, such fears appear to be unfounded, noted the World Bank in a comprehensive recent report on The Changing Nature of Work. That’s a mistake, because neglecting investments in human capital can dramatically weaken a country’s competitiveness in a rapidly changing world, one in which economies need ever-increasing amounts of talent to sustain growth.” . How is the Nature of Work Changing? People have long feared that machines are coming for our jobs.

To manage a complex system we need to changes the dispositions of populations and small level social interactions. People are fundamentally influenced by the micro narratives of their day to day lives, rather than grand narratives of change and admonishment.
