Organizational Change
Brief Summary of Prior Work
At IHRC there have been two elopement breaches, and this has resulted in a change in the elopement policy. Although the incidents were reported to the authorities in a timely manner, at issue is how IHRC can prevent another elopement incident from occurring in the future. There are currently two issues to be addressed in the organization's plan. The first is to prevent elopements and the second is to improve the speed at which we find the person.
It was previously noted that there might be some organizational barriers to implementing the proposed changes. For example, some of the changes involve increasing security barriers that restrict freedom of movement within the facility, and in/out of the facility. There is also a high level of employee burnout and the changes might add to their work load, causing resistance. Nurses will be more accountable for patient whereabouts, and they might resist taking on this added responsibility. Lewin's theory has been applied in this case to implement the decision, and it is therefore recommended that there needs to be some employee engagement in this process. Further, leadership needs to handle this crisis well, because of the current challenging internal climate at the facility.
Effectiveness
The new plan is expected to reduce the risk of elopement dramatically. While IHRC has experienced two elopements in the past two weeks, the rate over the long run is lower. With the new plans, however, the objective is to lower the rate of elopement to zero. This is the final output measure that will be used to ensure the success of our new strategies. Furthermore, there are a series of small measures to evaluate different aspects of this plan.
The reason that IHRC wants to measure its change plan is that measuring change allows the organization to monitor the implementation process, to understand how the organization...

Organizational Change The Burke-Litwin Model contains twelve organizational variables. Each of these variables is interconnected, so that changes in one variable will affect the others. Also built into the model is the idea that change can occur as the result of a concerted effort to change multiple variables. Ideally, an organizational change program will be strongest when all of the different variables are aligned in the direction of the desired change.
Organizational Change and Stress Management How Change Agents Can Contribute to Change Resistance According to Hussey (2000), as far as effective management is concerned, change remains a critical aspect. It can be noted that through their actions or inactions, change agents in most cases end up contributing towards the very occurrence of resistance (Ford et al. 2008).
