  1. Many years ago, I have come to believe that "resistance to change" does not even exist: This spurned several BetaCodex research papers, including the one on #ChangeAsFlipping, and ultimately the #OpenSpaceBeta approach to transformation.

    We also learned that "Resistance" is a reaction to an inappropriate stance on change by those trying to advance the change. We have come to call that flawed approach at change work "Fixation on Acceptance"

  3. In organizational change & development, a pretty simple principle applies:
    "Working the system is worthwhile,
    working the people isn't."
    A #BetaCodex white paper on the matter: betacodex.org/wp-content/uploa

    Basically, I am saying that if you do NOT distinguish between a #system and a system's #culture, then "culture" becomes a chicken-and-egg problem. A myth. A curse. A god. Which it is not.

    Culture is merely the shadow of a system. No more. No less.

    I have written about this in my books #EssaysOnBetaVol1 and #OrganizeForComplexity.

  7. There is no "large-scale change"!
    Doesn't exist. Never existed. It's just a mirage.

    What exists instead are two modes of change: Working IN the System (optimization) and Working ON the System (overcoming a system). For the latter, employ the wonderfully effective #ChangeAsFlipping: betacodex.org/wp-content/uploa

  9. In 2019, the #BetaCodex Network published two important research papers about #change & #transformation:
    Paper 15: Secrets of Very Fast Organizational Transformation betacodex.org/wp-content/uploa and
    Paper 16: From Now to New, Right Here: Change-as Flipping
    betacodex.org/wp-content/uploa

    The two papers outline key concepts and theory behind the #OpenSpaceBeta approach, developed the previous year. They also mark a new era in #OrganizationalDevelopment: Away from planned change and #ChangeManagement, and towards "change work done together with all the willing". Both papers were written by our associates @silkehermann and @nielspflaeging.

  11. OpenSpace Beta is going to celebrate its 5th anniversary in June! Nothing more fitting, on that occasion, to remember that #OpenSpaceBeta-based transformation has been undertaken by quite a few companies already. Here is the testimonial of @tporath, an entrepreneur that @silkehermann and @nielspflaeging accompanied during his company's #transformation, which happened in the middle of the COVID pandemic, and for the whole company at once, with teams in 3 countries. youtube.com/watch?v=tsn5_Ccd5y

  13. Stuff that is part of the nature of command & control organization:s:
    - Assign blame
    - Praise heroes!
    - Instill fear in everyone
    - Sow divisive myths
    - Appraise and judge people
    - Incentivize and punish!
    - Use judgmental/divisive language

    All this is destructive, with regards to value creation, innovation, performance and competitiveness.

    The antidote: Make #organizationaldevelopment development a topic of serious conversation. Here is how and youtube.com/watch?v=-XkrhhNhSV

  17. Hello @BetaCodex Team,
    Thank you for the impressive and useful achievements!
    I would benefit from a quick advice from you.
    I have no hierarchical position and i would like to #nudge my colleague engineers into protecting data. So no #changeAsFlipping!
    Would they more convinced by #sandwich or #coffee?

  19. @leonid Thanks for commenting! We do not have to agree, of course!

    What if I told you that your reaction or reflex is a typical one, and based on the misunderstanding that, in order to change a system, its size matters?

    Put differently: Once you #WorkTheSystem, not the people, size does not matter, and change starts to "scale". We call that #ChangeAsFlipping.

    Here are two related white papers:
    betacodex.org/wp-content/uploa
    and

    Precisely, you have to get in shape for your shadow to look nice!
    Now, I do not like the "many small steps" way of explaining organizational change that much. Because org change is not like a road or a journey, but more like adding milk to coffee: betacodex.org/wp-content/uploa
    I hope you will find this helpful!
