Change, whether strategic or responsive, remains a perpetual force in both organisational life and personal spheres. Leaders and managers play a pivotal role in identifying, executing, and guiding changes in mission, vision, values, culture, strategy, resource management, and performance. Such responsibility extends to considering external forces when orchestrating internal change and transformation. This course covers the competencies required for change management and organisational transformation. We look at various change types and their triggers, indigenous, Maori and Pasifika perspectives on change, implementation strategies, obstacles to change, cultural responsiveness in approaching change, and sustaining change over time.
