Case Study: Managing Organisational Change<br />

Students at the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> Western Australia are asked to identify a business that has undergone<br />

organisational change. Working in groups, students research the organisation to gain a thorough<br />

understanding <strong>of</strong> the change. Students are expected to visit the organisation and conduct at least eight indepth<br />

interviews with appropriate personnel and/or conduct a survey <strong>of</strong> a wider group. The data gathered<br />

must be analysed and presented so that it conveys an understanding <strong>of</strong> change and fully portrays the specific<br />

organisation on which the case study is based. Finally each group must present their case to their peers.<br />

While there are some difficulties in finding appropriate organisations willing to be involved, students'<br />

responses indicate that they learn first-hand the impact <strong>of</strong> change on organisations.
