¶ … Vision for Social Change My personal vision for social change is based on the underlying philosophy that change must come from those people who think differently than those who created the status quo. The drivers of the current status quo are the baby boom generation, who have held a substantial amount of political power since Clinton was elected, and who also form the largest voting bloc. However, I also see that the young people, the millennial generation, are a massive voting bloc, and they conceptualize their world quite differently than their parents and grandparents did. This is a generation that not only has faced different forms of adversity (Wyn & Woodman, 2006), but they also have been raised in a world where global trade and communication are the norm rather than the exception, and where climate change is the single most important issue. Further, this generation has been raised wholly in an era where social justice has been a running theme. So my vision for social change reflects the values of this generation, of moving forward and of having a mindset developed wholly in the 21st century, leaving behind the baggage of the 20th and heading headlong towards a vision of what we will leave...
The shift in values is away from a corporate oligarchy and more towards communities that are built around their own shared values. These values are inclusive of others, concern for the environment, and taking a more active role in creating the world that we want to see.

Healthcare Change Theory and Social Change Domestic violence and abuse is a very severe difficulty, for both the victims and the abusers. There are a number of theories about what makes batterers use abuse on those who are close to them. One outlook is that batterers are toughened criminals who carry out their crimes in a cognizant, deliberate way to attain the supremacy they think men are entitled to. Others consider abuse

A second change that has occurred and will continue to transform is that, regardless of the motivation, many employers have begun to experiment with flextime, telecommuting, and voluntary reduced-load work arrangements to give employees more discretion and personal flexibility in how they integrate work demands with other life roles such as family, community, and leisure. This increase in flexible work arrangements has further blurred the boundaries between work and home
Change Process and Models: Organizational change is not a process that is likely to take place organically because it is usually caused by an external event or change that stimulates internal shifts in one or more organizational levels. The change may come about for several reasons including the need for growth, need for improvement, and need to be more successful.
