10 Conclusions - lessons learned
Change is not a mechanical process Change is a unique organization specific process Change occurs on a unit by unit basis Change needs a framework like STAIR depicting an ideal reference map Change requires continues evaluation against this framework

11 The way forward Extensive training in order to develop the competences extracted from the research Change the organization’s appraisal system to accommodate the two sets of values (entrepreneurial and ethical) and reward employees who act and behave accordingly Transformational l/ship qualities, e.g. public leaders at all levels must rule by example, participation, collaboration, reasoning, flexibility and transcend their own self-interest for the sake of the organization or team activating their higher order needs and moral values

12 Interviews How HR Managers conceptualize change?
Organizational change viewed as a mechanical process of restructuring departments, rearranging functions and personnel - as a top-drive technical solution What is performance and how is it measured? Performance perceived mainly in financial terms. Organizational performance is measured by providing data on financial indicators, derived from budget, concerning public spending / expenditures and resource utilization - in order to win financial support and increase their legitimacy Who makes policy decisions? Diffusion of power Politicians make policy decisions which public employees execute The separation of politics and policies is evident
