Managing Change - Concepts and Approaches

"The difficult challenge that always confronts higher education institutions in their efforts to innovate programs, policies, structure, culture, and the whole educational system as needed, prompted leaders and teachers to understand the basic concept of managing change in educational institutions. A clear perspective on the concept of change and its approaches will provide a viable foundation for school development and effectiveness.

Since change is indispensable to the sustainable growth of every organization, particularly of educational institutions, this paper will attempt to discuss the essentials of change. It will also suggest some methods on how to identify possible areas of change in which the administration and other school personnel can work collaboratively. Recognizing that personnel, organizational culture, and leadership functions can be some of the factors to hinder change, this paper also endeavors to identify some suggestive methods on how to effectively implement change. In order to maintain positive results, a change model is proposed with some personal insights from the viewpoint of the writer."
