Module 8 discussion
Sustaining Change
Change must become an integral part of the organization.
Eventually, it should not be seen as a change but as the regular way in which
the business operates. This discussion question debates the manner in which
change can be sustained throughout the organization.
Respond to the following:
• It has been stated
that change enacted must become the way we do things around here. Propose two
actions or strategies that an organization should consider to ensure that
change within the organization becomes part of the new culture, along with one
strategy the organization should consider if the change begins to fail to
become part of that culture.
