Projektledning av förändring – en paradox?

En tid präglad av intensiv förändringstakt ställer nya krav på projektledarskapet. Bland våra kunder uppmärksammar vi fler och fler projektledare som vittnar om att de upplever en förskjutning av projektledarrollen där kraven på klassisk projektstyrning bibehålls samtidigt som kraven på de mer processuella och mellanmänskliga kompetenser intensifieras. En förskjutning som blir tydligare i takt med att projekten mer och mer relaterar till organisatoriska förändringar.
Många projekt mynnar ut i någon form av organisatorisk förändring. Man kan kategorisera projekt och graden av organisatorisk förändring i nivåer:

Förnyelse – fri förändringsprocess - Projektet syftar till att skapa det nya utan större hänsyn till det befintliga. Fundamentala och existentiella grunder såväl som dynamiska delar som produkter, tjänster, metoder, strukturer och kulturer skapas. Projektet präglas av en …

Our new attitude gives more permanent results

Peter Ahlm has a controller background, but works for the central unit of the University in Lund with project management of business development projects. Some time ago he attended the Process Consultant Program provided by PlanB and as a result he can now look at his work in terms of ”before the program” and ”after the program”.
Can you describe the main usefulness of the Process Consultant Program?
- Yes, well before we probably worked in a very ”business economics minded” way with our development processes. We were very rational in our way of thinking. We made a plan and followed it, to put it simple, says Peter and continues:
- We have gained knowledge and feeling for how we can look …

The organizational culture is the key

When Lars Lanker signed up for the Process Consultant program with a system theoretical orientation, he was completely free from expectations. Mostly he was curious about what ”system theoretical orientation” could mean.
- When I googled the concept, PlanB’s program was my only hit. There was no other alternative, he says with a smile.
Lars Lanker works as Business Area Manager in the part of Sigma that is responsible for Leadership and Change. In the autumn of 2010 he was to lead a heavy structural change when four companies within the Sigma group was to be transformed into one single company.
- Pretty soon after the Process Consultant Program had started the picture of what it could offer in terms of improvement of …

Organisationen som ett system

En viktig del av PlanB’s teoretiska fundament utgörs av systemteorin. Systemteori är en bred teoribildning som går över ett flertal forskningsfält – från naturvetenskap och teknik till beteendevetenskap och humaniora. Inom organisationsforskningen är systemteori ett fruktbart angreppssätt, där man ser på organisationer som komplexa, dynamiska, målorienterade processer. Många forskare har bidragit till fältet, bland andra psykologen Kurt Lewin, Peter Senge och Edgar Schein.
Ett system är uppbyggt av regelbundet samspelande och sinsemellan relaterade grupper av aktiviteter. Systemteorin betonar särskilt relationer, hur organisationen fungerar som ett enda system, som en helhet. Äldre teorier fokuserar mer på enskildheter, vilket ger ett mer mekanistiskt sätt att se på organisationer. Systemteorin kan ses som en motreaktion mot det mekanistiska paradigmet.
Genom öppenhet och återkoppling kan organisationerna, …

Methodology

PlanB’s methodology is based on systems theory, Schein’s model of organizational culture, Senge’s theories of the learning organization, and methods for action-based learning.
We have developed an original model, the Strategic Loop, which through repeated processes supports the organization in its change process.
PlanB uses a variety of methods and tools, including the Learning loop, Appreciative Inquiry, Open Space, Deep Democracy, Cafe Dialogue, Reflective Teams, Covey’s Seven habits, Strategic Visioning, Change Implementation Assessment, PROSCI’s fundamentals of change management, Kotters 8 steps for leading change, Project Health Check, and 360-degree personal feedback.
We coach both individually and through reflective team and group coaching.
Examples of tests we perform are the MBTI, DISC and Belbin Teamroles.
