At a recent workshop I attended, by Steve Waddell, put on by Ashoka, here in Nairobi, Steve displayed a chart about GAN’S (Global Action Networks) work on transformation.
I’m fascinated by all things related to change and transformation – how we manage it (or don’t), how we deal (or don’t) and how the same change can be invigorating for some and a death blow to others.
Take a look at his analysis in the chart below. It applies to more than just GAN’s.
But first, in your work, be it training and development, human resources generalist, change agent specialist or other, ask yourself:
- what type of change are you trying to effect?
- what’s the core purpose?
- what are the power relationships?
Then see how your answers stack up to Steve’s below.
Found your blog from Yahoo, thank you for the wonderful read.
