The general approach of strategic change is the industrial organizational approach and sociological approach. The industrial organizational approach is based on economic theory and deals with competitiveness, resources allocation, economies of scale and it used assumptions like rationality, self discipline behavior and profit maximization. The sociological approach deals in human interactions with assumptions of bounded rationality, satisfying behavior and profit sub-optimality.

What happens if delays occur? What if key people leave the organization? What are the expected moves of antagonists and competitors? Who or what might impede implementation of the plan?

Learning Outcome 3 LSC 3- How to reduce resistance to change in health and social care
Resistance prevents organizational change and it is vital to identify the resistance and build strategies to manage resistance effectively. The resistance may happen due to lack of information, confusion or disagreement with key information. It may arise from emotional and physiological reactions due to the fear of loss or abandonment. Resistance stay beyond immediate situation and it based on what change represents to a person and it entrenched and encompass personal, cultural, religious and racial differences. If the resistance transforms to commitment make the change process successful.
Refers to (Urban Health Partnership, Primary Care Group, Kings Fund, London W1M 0AN, 1998.) argues that, NHS have not changed many behaviours as listed below .
Summary points
Despite considerable structural change and numerous attempts at reform, the underlying nature of the NHS has remained remarkably stable and many behaviours have not changed This stability could be explained by the stability of the guiding principles that shape behaviour in the NHSCan do, should do, Doing means treatment, Treatment should fix it, and I am responsible These principles, though once appropriate, may now be reducing the NHSs adaptive capacity To allow proper reform of the NHS, we have to engage directly with these guiding principles and change them, rather than simply changing the organisational structure (Urban Health Partnership, Primary Care Group, Kings Fund, London W1M 0AN, 1998.) Since 1948 every government has re-invoked the founding principles and there is little agreement to how it should be organized. If adopt guiding principles that can mould guiding principles and behavior in NHS, besides that it can reform and change the principles and it can shape behavior by:1. Can do, should do 2. Doing means treatment 3. Treatment should fix it 4. I am responsible It will share several features that people come together from various perspectives, spend enough time together to move beyond first impression and engage in conversations and that generate possibilities. (Urban Health Partnership, Primary Care Group, Kings Fund, London W1M 0AN, 1998.)

LSC 3.2- A critically evaluation of different ways of limiting and overcoming resistance to change
According to, (Outram), Formal and informal strategies have to be developed for harnessing and managing individualsCreating the preconditions in which change can occur is a key facilitation skill; reducing individual resistance to change through informal discussion and dialogue is as important as formal, public advocacy. Increasing the pressure for change is a less effective strategy to stimulate progress in HE departments/organisations where power is diffuse and essentially sapiential rather than positional. Therefore to establish the preconditions for change and the change must be relevant to all affected and confirm it result in important benefits and it should be understood and compatible and feasible with the participants, besides that to diagnose the reasons for resistance to change. The reasons may that their needs not met and believe that the change make easier to meet their needs or the needs outweigh the risks or the change necessary to avoid a harmful situation. In addition they believe the change process is being handled properly or change will work properly and it consistent with their values and they trust those responsible for the change. The change manager should create trust and it is a fundamental to the application of change. It is possible by avoiding the misleading and presenting different opinions and statements to different people, gossiping about others, blaming others for mistakes, competing with others, giving more negative feedbacks than positive and withholding information.
