Change Management |
||
There are a number of motivations for change : exciting new visions of the future, discontent at the status quo, external factors forcing an organisation to reassess its practices and so on. However, change can be unsettling - as humans, many of us have a preference for little change, or at least only that which we ourselves decide to introduce into our environment. Therefore introducing change into Christian organisations or churches can be a challenge to Christian leaders, who have had little or no formal training in change management. We offer a six step change management model to help Christian leaders successfully introduce change into a church or Christian organisation. Although based on material used by leading commercial organisations, the content has been carefully selected to ensure that it is appropriate for use within a Christian context. This is relatively simple - the important thing is to think carefully, and be aware of side-effects of the change. Click on each step in turn to explore it in more detail, or work through them in turn using the links at the bottom of each step. Step 1 : Defining a vision for change
: what is the desired change you want
to introduce? |
