A master in the art of living knows no sharp distinction between their
work and their play, their labor and their leisure, their mind and their
body, their education and their recreation. They hardly know which is
which. They simply pursue their vision of excellence through whatever
they are doing and leave others to determine whether they are working
or playing

Managing Change

Managing change has become the "silver bullet" in seeking the final
component of successfully managing strategy, process, people and culture
in most modern organizations. More and more, staying competitive in the
face of demographic trends, technological innovations, and globalization
requires organizations to change at much higher rates than ever
before. Few people will argue with this statement, but fewer still will say
their organization does a good job at managing those changes. Managing
change well is a continuous and ongoing combination of art and science
that assures alignment of an organization’s strategies, structures, and
processes.

A growing number of companies are undertaking the kinds of
organizational changes needed to survive and prosper in today’s
environment. They are streamlining themselves and thereby becoming
more nimble and responsive to external demands. They are involving
employees in key decisions and paying for performance rather than
for time. They are taking initiative in innovating and managing
change, rather than simply reacting to what has already happened.

Do Not Harm Mentality
 More importantly, a recognition that the way you
changed was as important as the change itself.
Studies had to ensure that the change made people
and the organization better off.
All change involves personal choice
The relationship between change and
performance is not instantaneous
Connect change to strategy
Involvement breeds commitment
Any good change effort results in increased
capacity to face change in the future

travel

economically
 1st plane that supported itself
aerodynamically
DC-3 brought together 5
critical component technologies
– each an important part of the whole

(made engine more powerful at
all speeds)
 Retractable landing gear

Today – 5 new “component

the whole and not parts
2. Personal Mastery – discipline of
 Continually clarifying vision
 Developing patience
3. Mental Models – things that
influence how we understand the
world and how we take action
4. Building Shared Vision
5. Team Learning
The Fifth Discipline
Peter Senge
 “Most changes in organizational
structure are piecemeal reactions to
problems. Real designers are
continually trying to understand
wholes. Just as the DC-3 designers
had to integrate the 5 component
technologies, crucial design work for
leaders of learning organizations
concerns integrating vision, values,
and purpose…..”
AN UNSTOPPABLE FORCE
Erwin Raphael McManus
•
“The purpose of the church cannot be to survive
or even to thrive but to serve. And sometimes
servants die in the serving.”
•
“We are in grave danger when we have the most
people and the most money in our history.”
•
“The cultural environment became comfortable,
and the gospel shifted from a church “on mission”
to a church that supported missions.”
•
“If those who prepare for leadership are looking
for the safe place, who will lead the church into
the dangerous places?”
AN UNSTOPPABLE FORCE
Erwin Raphael McManus
•
“You can change the name, but if you don’t change
the heart, the atrophy will kill you in the end.”
•
“Our resolution to be discomforted with
technology will ensure that we remain at least
fifty years behind.”
•
We live in a world defined by speed. We get there
faster, get it faster, and want it faster.”
•
“Too often, the church becomes our secure place,
our haven from the outside world.”
AN UNSTOPPABLE FORCE
Erwin Raphael McManus
•
“The key to dealing with this rapidly changing
world, to dealing with this culture addicted to
speed, is not to catch up but to give up on keeping
up.”
•
“The way not to be overwhelmed by the radical
changes and speed in our world is to know where
you’re going, to know why you’re going there, and
to do it with urgency.”
•
“Although change is rarely taught or extracted
from the Scriptures, the Scriptures are a document
about change.”
•
“God calls us to take the memories with us but to
leave the memorabilia behind.”
AN UNSTOPPABLE FORCE
Erwin Raphael McManus
•
“Simply stated, if the Bible doesn’t bring change, it
is not being engaged.”
•
“We are not only called to be changed and to
embrace change but to be the catalysts of
change.”
•
“The further we are from the past, the better we
remember it – but not the clearer. Soon the
details are lost to the dream. In the end what we
remember never existed.”
•
“When our children grow up, they mirror what
we’ve really cared about.”
AN UNSTOPPABLE FORCE
Erwin Raphael McManus
•
“The problem in many of our congregations is not
that we’ve chosen a wrong strategy or have an
irrelevant style but that we have an unhealthy
culture.”
•
“When you alter the methods of a church, you are,
in effect trampling memories.”
•
“True leaders are able to influence not only
individuals, but also environments.”
•
“People know what you care about by what you’re
willing to die for.”
