Change Management Assignement

Order Description

“The different theories of organisational change invite us to pay attention to
many facets of the same phenomenon. By doing so, two different theories of
organisational change can often provide us different interpretations of any given
situation”. Discuss this statement in relation to a concrete case of organisational
change.
Note 1: The suggested word limit is 3500 words, and the ultimate maximum word

as an appendix, which is not included in the wordcount.
Note 2: Your work will be assessed in relation to the three criteria detailed in the
marking scheme.
Note3: You will be expected to develop your arguments with appropriate
reference to a range of peer-reviewed journal articles, and avoid over-reliance on
textbooks.

Harvard referencing system. Help with how to use Harvard referencing can be
found on the UWE study skills website at:
