Change approaches & management tools SeCtion tWo
Introduction to Section 2
In this section we present a directory of ‘change approaches’ and ‘change management tools’ based on a review of literature in the fields of organisational development and change. These include tools, frameworks, models and direct interventions which can be applied at different stages within a planned cycle of social care change. For each approach and tool a summary is provided which incorporates the following:
• A description of its purpose and the principles that lie behind the approach
• An overview of how it can be applied in practice
• A comment on the strengths and weaknesses highlighted in research and from practice.
• A commentary on its potential to implement the principles of social care change. The approaches are presented in alphabetical order with an index overleaf.
