If planning is considered as providing the route map for the journey, then organizing is the means by which you arrive at the chosen destination. Plans are statements of intent, direction and resourcing. To put intentions in to effect requires purposeful activity, and this is where the organizing function of management comes in. Organizing is concerned with activity.

It is a process for:

    1. determining, grouping and structuring activities

    2. devising and allocating roles arising from grouping and structuring activities

    3. assigning accountability for results

    4. determining detailed rules and systems of working, including those for communication, decision-making and conflict-resolution

To change something implies altering it, varying or modifying it in some way. Organizations change, or adapt, what they want to achieve and how. Some organizations change mainly in response to external circumstances (reactive change); others change principally because they have decided to change or anticipate (proactive change). Some organizations are conservative in outlook, seeking new opportunities and new challenges. Some organizations are so constructed that change (or adaptation) is a slow and difficult process; others are designed with an in-built flexibility, enabling adaptation to take place regularly and relatively easily.

Changes do not always imply innovation, or introducing something new. The most important motive for innovation in a business enterprise is to improve the organization’s ability to meet and satisfy customer’s needs.

For companies to become integrative they need to develop three new sets of skills:

   •Power shills

   •Skills in managing problems

   •An understanding of how change s designed

One of the principal ways in which organizations can bring about planed change is by the means of an Organization Development programme.

The two principal attractions to action research are:

•It is problem-oriented rather than solution-oriented

•It is actively involves employees in issues of importance to their work and thus gain their cooperation in bringing change
