THE CONTEXT
THE CONTEXT
University strategy
Charles Sturt University (CSU) in its University Strategy 2007-2011, under Institutional Development, has
committed to:
―Creating a culture that is responsive to organisational change and renewal.”
An Organisational Change and Renewal Framework has been developed, along with a number of other
initiatives, some outlined below, to facilitate the creation of this culture.

Key findings from focus groups: organisational culture and internal communication:
In 2007, the Internal Communication Working Party and the Organisational Culture Program Committee
were convened by Professor Lyn Gorman, Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Administration) and identified a range
of communication areas to be improved. In response to these issues, focus groups and individual
interviews were held with about 85 staff participating from across a number of campuses, including
Ontario. The purpose of these focus groups was to establish issues, concerns, positive aspects and
solutions to organisational culture and internal communication.
Staff said that they want changes and the communication of changes to be better managed. They
welcome change and wish to be part of the consultation. They want a process for change management
and for celebrating small wins. Refer to Attachment 3 for more detailed key themes that emerged from the
focus groups.

WHAT IS CHANGE
Page | 9
WHAT IS CHANGE?
Exercise – Introductions
Consider the following question and write down your responses.
What is change? Consider a recent or impending change in your area. How has this change
affected staff?
In the workshop introduce yourself then identify your role as a change leader and your response
to the questions above.
“Change is the process of altering, reshaping or transforming a business to improve the way it works or
interacts with its environment”. (Anand and Nicholson 2004).
Change is constant
- Benjamin Disraeli
Change has always been a constant in our lives. The current pace of change is accelerating with
innovations and advances in technology increasing at an exponential rate. In fact many businesses,
conferences, communiqués, references, change ‗gurus‘ and consultants talk of change as being a
constant that we are all grappling to manage which will just be common place, even ‗expected‘ by the Y
Generation.
Models and Stages of Change
There are a variety of models that outline the stages of change and the variables that are affecting or
need to be considered during change. Attachment 3 of the CSU Organisational Change and Renewal
Framework provides a good overview of:
- The four variables of change: culture, context, knowledge and technology
- The necessary conditions in people for effective change: awareness, capability, inclusion
- The effects of change on people: people in the process of transition and the change acceptance curve

WHY MANAGE CHANGE
P a g e | 11
WHY MANAGE CHANGE?
What are the reasons for change at CSU?
Exercise – Reasons for Change in the Higher Education sector
Brainstorm individually, in pairs or groups in the workshop or with your work group, peer learning
group and/or mentor, the reasons for change at CSU and in the Higher Education Sector.
Summarise and collate the list. How does it compare with the CSU Organisational Change &
Renewal Framework? What stood out for you in relation to your leadership role at CSU?
The Manager as a leader of change in a University
“University leadership requires leaders capable of producing change, aligning people and motivating them
whilst simultaneously engaging the management function of keeping the organisation on time and within
budget” (Ramsden 1998) Ramsden‟s (1998) emphasis on the leader‟s responsibility for generating
change and commitment to change, largely reflects transformational leadership dimensions”. (as cited by
Pounder 2001).
Transformational leadership and the notion of the learning organisation (Senge 1990) “speak directly” to
the effectiveness of universities of the future that will be (are) faced with issues of managing change in
the areas of “diversity, growth, responsiveness and external accountability”. This leadership is not
confined to senior managers (eg SEC). Leadership in universities is “dispersed leadership”. It is also
undoubtedly transformational in nature involving “helping ordinary people do extraordinary things”,
evaluating individual‟s visions to higher levels, and helping people to embrace change.” (Pounder 2001)
The Responsibilities of a Manager at CSU
The generic responsibilities and accountabilities as managers
(http://www.csu.edu.au/adminman/hum/humanresources.htm):
Fosters a culture of cooperation/collegiality, teamwork, reflective practice, continual improvement
and learning, and responsiveness to change.
Managing change by anticipating and responding to developments within the external and
internal environment that may impact on the University or a Faculty; Division; Section (as
appropriate)
Anand & Nicholson (2004) provide a strong case for the management of change and why change fails.
Basically it ―requires the full range of management skills: „hard‟ skills in planning, project management
and analysis, and „soft‟ skills in persuasion, understanding business cultures and communication”. These
are the “keys to success”.

HOW TO MANAGE CHANGE AT CSU
P a g e | 13
HOW TO MANAGE CHANGE AT CSU
The CSU Organisational Change and Renewal Framework was developed as part of the University
Strategy to develop an organisational ―culture responsive to change and renewal”. This will increase
CSU‘s capability to manage change proactively and effectively so that as an organisation we can be
effective and sustainable in the rapidly changing Higher Education sector.
There are a number of organisational change management and /or transition frameworks, plans and
resources available. No one way is correct. The CSU framework has been developed as an amalgam of
two frameworks; Kotter (2002) and Synnot (2007). The underlying foundation of the CSU framework are
the eight (8) key dimensions (or ingredients) as they cover all four main variables of impact to be
considered which will ensure buy in from staff and all stakeholders directly affected by change.
Four main variables to be considered in any change at CSU (CSU Frontline Management Program
BSBFLM10B Facilitate and Capitalise on Change and Innovation):
1.People; (Culture is an important component)
2.Tasks; (considered as Processes under the CSU Enterprise Model (WPI))
3.Organisational Structure; and
4.Technology

Exercise – CSU Change Management Framework
Identifying how to improve change management at CSU using the CSU Change Management
Framework
With your workshop group, work team, peer learning group and/or mentor: Think about a recent
or current change which you have led or been involved with. What were the strengths? What
could have been improved? Which of the 8 dimensions of the framework were used/align with
the strengths? Which dimensions were not considered? Use butchers paper or a whiteboard.
Strengths
Improvables
Where do/what
dimensions of the
framework fit?
Which dimensions
were not
considered?
Whole group debrief:
Considering planned or anticipated changes in your area, what could we do in the future to
improve the management of change and therefore the effectiveness acceptance of the
change/s? How will you use the framework?

Developing a Change Management Plan
The three main fundamentals in the CSU Change Management Framework should be considered in
developing any Change Management Plan and a Communication Plan. These are well covered by the 8
dimensions:
People and Culture:
1. lay the foundations for new ways through capability: knowledge, skills and leadership
development (Dimension 1)
2. maximise connectedness: identify and remove barriers to change; willingness and readiness
for change (Dimension 6)
3. consolidate performance improvements (Dimension 8)
Plan:
1. use the project management methodology: create an ―Assignment ― or a full scale project
and form a change or transition team (Dimension 3)
2. create strategic alignment or fit within the university strategy: establish goals and objectives
(Dimension 4)
Communicate:
1.
develop a communication plan and communicate the vision (Dimension 5)
2.
create a sense of urgency (Dimension 2)
3.
create and celebrate short and long term wins (Dimension 7)
Homework – Change Management Plan
Consider a change which you are planning in your area. Develop a draft change
management plan (and Communication Plan) using the CSU project management
templates and tools http://www.csu.edu.au/division/psc/PLframework/ and the
CSU Organisational Change and Renewal Framework. Examples are provided in
Attachments 4 & 5 of the CSU Interact Change and Communication Plans.
