A thorough investigation of an organisation change (the organisation change IS the implementation of project CORTISONE into the defence medical services – uk military) in the light of the contextual (political, economic, operational and institutional) theories – see list at end. The emphasis is on the exploration and understanding of the pre conditions which determine likely change management behaviour, rather than on the organisational level change itself. Your analysis is to be informed by the theories, models and concepts and subsequent reading (see later list) Use a forensic approach: start with a brief explanation of the organisational level change itself; the work backwords tracing the origin of the change at incrasingly wider levels of anaylsis; deloy as much theoretical understanding as possible where such positions help explain behaviours; articulate where theoretical positions might be in contradiction or open to debate from different perspectives; offer an opinion as to the effectiveness or appropriateness of various theretical positions in terms of explanatory value to the organisational case in question.
