|
| The course provides a number of theoretical and conceptual tools in order to support the design of an accurate and relevant action plan in terms of change management.
- It proposes a certain number of analytical grids that are available in Management Sciences, in order to describe the various proposed changes, their nature, scope and temporality.
- It shows how these changes can be explained through the use of different theoretical approaches. Critical thinking and discussions are undertaken on how to evaluate a change process using a multidimensional grid.
- Finally, it addresses the change as a process to manage, exploring various actions related to the previously proposed theoretical approaches.
|
| | Management by objectives |
|
| This people management Workshop is dedicated to the three following core manager's activities : 1) goal setting, 2) delegation, 3) evaluation.
The philosophy of the course is inspired by the principles of two complementary approaches: Evidence Based Management (for the theoretical aspects) and Solution Focused (for the practical aspects).
Each of the three manager's activities will be examined through the following questions : (a) Does it work ? (critical process), (b) Why does it work ? (understanding of the mechanisms involved), (c) How to implement it? (practical application). |

Learning outcomes of the course :
|
|
| | Change management |
|
| The workshop objectives are:
- To learn about and use the key concepts, approaches and theoretical models of change management
- To propose a critical view on the different theoretical and practical approaches to organisational change
- To undertake a diagnosis in situations of organisational change
- To identify appropriate actions and interventions in situations of organisational change
- To analyse his/her own professional experience in light of the theories and case studies undertaken in class
|
| | Management by objectives |
|
| At the end of the workshop, the future managers will be able to lead the process that, step by step, starts with goal setting and ends with goal evaluation.
The concepts and tools the approach rests on are applicable to the person who wants to set goals for him/herself as well as to the manager who has to set and evaluate goals for his/her team. |

- case studies, where students are asked to use the theoretical concepts in order to analyse practical cases, and to compare their respective views and opinions
- an analysis of lived experiences, through concrete examples from the students' work experiences, and a group work on the analysis of a real case

|
| The evaluation is entirely based on activities carried out in the classroom during the two-day workshop. Your presence is therefore crucial !
The evaluation is divided as follows:
- class participation - 20%
- case studies (in groups) - 30%
- the final group work - 50%
The final group work consists in:
- exchanging around the respective professional experiences in terms of change management
- choosing a change process in one organisation, and analyse it
- prepare an oral presentation, in groups
