Проблема организации и проведения организационных изменений

Проблеме организации и проведения организационных изменений уделено немало внимания в научной литературе. Так, в 1960-х гг. стали появляться программы организационного развития (organizational development), фокусировавшиеся, в первую очередь, на поддержке постепенных организационных изменений. Впоследствии с разработкой проблематики стратегических изменений появляется большое количество моделей. Например, в 1974 г. модель, разработанная Watzlawick, предусматривала два вида изменений: first-order и second-order, проводившими различие между качественными изменениями системы и перенастройкой отдельных компонентов внутри системы, а в 1976 г. Golembiewski разработал модель организационных изменений, в основе которой лежали три типа трансформации: «альфа», «бета», «гамма». При «альфа»-изменении расширяется существующее поле деятельности сотрудников, при «бета» — устанавливаются новые стандарты работы, переход посредством «квантового скачка» в способе осуществления работ имеет место при «гамма»-трансформации [30].
