#changeasflipping — Public Fediverse posts

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"

In 2019, the #BetaCodex Network published two important research papers about #change & #transformation:
Paper 15: Secrets of Very Fast Organizational Transformation https://betacodex.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/BetaCodex-SecretsOfVFOT.pdf and
Paper 16: From Now to New, Right Here: Change-as Flipping
https://betacodex.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/BetaCodex-ChangeAsFlipping.pdf

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.

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. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsn5_Ccd5yw

In #OrganizationalDevelopment, don't do experiments.
Skip the labs, the pilots and try-outs.
If you want to overcome the system, instead of fixing people, then those interventions are just inadequate.
