When I enter into this school in 2010, the school starts to launch a project to generate all the student transcripts using a system set in the intranet instead of using our own programme database. However, until now, this project is still not yet launching to use. And I am going to use the models of change to explain why this project cannot be implemented.
In this case, Innovators would be the team of launching this project. Early Adopters would be the admin staff chosen for the pilot. Laggards would be the admin staff who have already been working in this school for many years and refuse for accepting changes.
Failure of the Change
INVOLVE PEOPLE & HOW PEOPLE THINK AND BEHAVE Because this project involve many admin staff who have already been working in this school for many years. They have their own way to generate the transcript by using their own template and database such as Access. Since they use their method to generate transcripts for many years and they don’t think there is an urgent need to use the new system.
FACTS AND SUPPORTING EVIDENCE Second, the team cannot provide very persuasive evidence why change is needed. When launching this project, we have been told that the school wants to implement this project for many years and would like to unify the transcripts using the school system.
KEEP PEOPLE WELL INFORMED Some of the admin staff has been chosen for the pilot, the feedback from them towards the project are as below: The instruction is not clear. The system is so complicated and time consuming. The workload will be increased by using this system. These comments will damage the performance and make change more difficult to implement.
This innovation decision may be belong to COLLECTIVE where a decision is reached by consensus among the members of a system (Admin staff). This project can be implemented if the innovation decision change to AUTHORITY-BASED where the head of the school impose the pressure to implement the project.
