Coronavirus (COVID-19) Update
Curtin University is committed to supporting all our students and staff whether they are on campus, working
remotely or overseas. Your health, safety and wellbeing are our priority and the continuing COVID-19 pandemic
may require changes to the unit schedule, learning activities, delivery modes and assessment to provide flexible
and safe options to our community. Curtin will endeavour to keep changes and disruptions to a minimum at all
times. For current advice and further information visit https://www.curtin.edu.au/novel-coronavirus/.
Syllabus
The unit examines the theoretical and practical perspectives used as a framework to identify change. The change
strategy, tools and measurement of change are analysed.
Introduction
Welcome to the Unit, Managing Change. ‘Change’ is a highly influential phenomena that is a part of our everyday
lives, both professional and private. Virtually every facet of an organisation’s functioning and practically every
managerial initiative or action, unavoidably entails some form of change. Change may be a disruptive, costly and
distracting dynamic demanding attention from all stakeholders impacted by the outcomes; thus in a world of
rapid and on-going change at every level of the community, the notion of ‘managing change’ or ‘change
management’, becomes an essential aspect of management mindset. Innovative and diverse managerial skills that
contribute to sustainability and a forward- thinking outlook become critical to good management.
Your ability to demonstrate your understanding of the character and features of organisational
change and the many ways in which it manifests in organisations will be underpinned by your
understanding of the theories and concepts associated with this phenomena. We trust that you
will find the dynamism and often unpredictability of ‘change’ a compelling subject and an
enjoyable, practical learning experience that will enrich your offering as a Graduate from Curtin
University. We look forward to engaging you on the subject.
Unit Learning Outcomes
All graduates of Curtin University achieve a set of six Graduate Capabilities during their course of study. These
inform an employer that, through your studies, you have acquired discipline knowledge and a range of other skills
and capabilities which employers would value in a professional setting. Each unit in your course addresses the
Graduate Capabilities through a clearly identified set of learning outcomes. They form a vital part in the process
referred to as assurance of learning. The learning outcomes notify you of what you are expected to know,
understand or be able to do in order to be successful in this unit. Each assessment for this unit is carefully
designed to test your knowledge of one or more of the unit learning outcomes. On successfully completing all of
the assessments you will have achieved all of these learning outcomes.
Your course has been designed so that on graduating you will have achieved all of Curtin’s Graduate Capabilities
through the assurance of learning processes in each unit.
On successful completion of this unit students can: Graduate Capabilities

1 Apply the different perspectives of managing organisational change
2 Analyse the strategy-making process and its application within a changing
environment
3 Prepare concise and coherent arguments relating to change theory and
practice in organisations

Detailed information on assessment tasks
1. 1: ASSIGNMENT 1: Work Integrated Project Report. 35% (2500 words)
PURPOSE: Refers to Lectures 1-5. Provides you with an opportunity to apply relevant
change theory to an organisational change situation (intervention). You are required to
analyse, interpret and evaluate the appropriateness and effectiveness of a change process
in an organisation by using data gained via a CASE INTERVIEW provided to you. Your
discussion is presented in a Report format – and demonstrates your understanding of
theory and concepts covered to this point and applied critical and analytical thinking.
A: Task: THE INTERVIEW:
You are required to identify the process of ‘change intervention’ as experienced by an
ordinary industry / organisation / business. The Case is presented by way of an Interview
which provides the data for the discussion that follows. The Interview uses seven questions
to elicit the information required. Study the questions closely – as you examine the
responses.
a. DETERMINE why the change intervention was introduced.
b. ANALYSE and interpret the data gathered (The Case Interview).
c. Write a carefully considered REPORT on the change and change intervention by
responding to the five sections below. [A Report Format must be followed, see

Assessments Tab on BB for guidance]:
B: Focus of the Report:
The following FIVE sections become the focus of your discussion. Critically analyse and
discuss as they relate to the change intervention in the Case:
I. Briefly describe the ‘change’ situation (what forced / drove the organisation to
implement a programme of change?) EG: Management react to external forces and
initiate a programme of change intervention in order to deal with a problem.
OR – eg: Management proactively introduce a change in order to make their business
more competitive …etc.
II. Describe the subsequent ‘change intervention’ undertaken by management
Identifying:
a. The internal and external drivers of the change (situation).
b. Decide and substantiate therefore if the nature of the change was planned or
emergent.
III. Describe the type of Strategy used behind the rationale and objectives of the change
intervention according to the goals of the management.
IV. Suggest at least two relevant and guiding change perspective(s) that management
did use – or could have used to better analyse the need and direction for change in
the organisation. [Please do not use the ‘biological’ perspective]
V. Describe the interviewee’s underlying assumptions about the change – before it
took place.
¡ how did they and colleagues feel, think, react to the talk of, or need for, the proposed
changes?
¡ What examples of resistance from employees / colleagues were observed during the
change implementation? (Speak of co-operation or any negative behaviour that was
felt / observed by the interviewee). From what levels or sections of the organisation
was this resistance?
VI Reflect and Evaluate the Change Event: Explain what the interviewee now thinks
of the changes that took place.
a. How difficult or successful was the change intervention process? (What were the
challenges? People? Resistance? How was the organisation limited in its ability to
make the change?).
b. Did management achieve their intended outcomes? Were their strategies correct?
Why / why not?

Academic Integrity (including plagiarism and cheating)
Academic Integrity
Curtin’s Student Charter, Academic Integrity Program (AIP), and core Values guide expectations regarding student
behaviour and responsibilities. Information on these topics can be found on the Academic Integrity Website.
Academic Integrity Warnings
An Academic Integrity Warning may be issued to a student in limited circumstances and only where misconduct is
not involved.
Academic Misconduct
Staff members are required to report poor academic practice and suspected misconduct. Academic Misconduct
means conduct by a student that is dishonest or unfair in connection with any academic work. This includes all
types of plagiarism, cheating, collusion, falsification or fabrication of content, and behaviours like falsifying
medical certificates for extension. Contract cheating, the use of file sharing, translation services/apps,
paraphrasing tools (text-spinners), article generators, and assignment help websites also may be considered
academic misconduct.
Check your assessment instructions carefully before using any generative artificial intelligence (Gen-AI) software
(e.g. Chat GPT, Midjourney, GitHub Copilot, etc.). You are not permitted to use Gen-AI software in any assessment
task unless written permission is explicitly granted by the Unit Coordinator (e.g. within Blackboard or the
assignment specifications). If the use of Gen-AI software has been approved, you must document its use, apply
appropriate acknowledgement and attribution rules, and include a statement as to the nature and extent of the
use when submitting the assessment. Unapproved, inappropriate, or undisclosed use may be dishonest or unfair
behaviour, and thus considered misconduct. For further information on the use of Gen-AI software see the
Academic Integrity Website.
The longer term personal, social, and financial consequences of misconduct can be severe, so please ask your
tutors or unit coordinator if you need clarification or are unsure what to do. If your work is the subject of an
inquiry, you will be given an opportunity to respond and appropriate support will be provided. Academic work
under inquiry will not be graded until the process has concluded. Penalties for misconduct may include a warning,
a reduced or nil grade, a requirement to repeat the assessment, an annulled grade (ANN) or termination from the
course. For more information refer to Statute No.10 Student Discipline and Academic Misconduct Rules.

Student Rights and Responsibilities
It is the responsibility of every student to be aware of all relevant legislation, policies and procedures relating to
their rights and responsibilities as a student. These include:
l the Student Charter
l Values and Signature Behaviours
l the University’s policy and statements on plagiarism and academic integrity
l copyright principles and responsibilities
l the University’s policies on appropriate use of software and computer facilities
Information on all of the above is available through the University’s “Student Rights and Responsibilities” website

Note: In Australia and other jurisdictions, students are required to complete a screening check prior to
undertaking any activities that include children (e.g. surveying children at a school as part of a project). If this
applies to you, start by contacting your unit coordinator for advice.
Student Equity
There are a number of factors that might disadvantage some students from participating in their studies or
assessments to the best of their ability, under standard conditions. These factors may include a disability or
medical condition (e.g. mental illness, chronic illness, physical or sensory disability, learning disability), significant
caring responsibilities, pregnancy, religious practices, living in a remote location,or another reason. If you believe
you may be unfairly disadvantaged on these or other grounds please contact the appropriate service below. It is
important to note that the staff of the University may not be able to meet your needs if they are not informed of
your individual circumstances, so please get in touch with the appropriate service if you require assistance.
To discuss your needs in relation to:
l Disability or medical conditions, contact AccessAbility Services: https://students.curtin.edu.au/personalsupport/disability/
l Elite athletes, contact Elite Athlete Coordinator: https://stadium.curtin.edu.au/sport/academy/elite-athleteprogram/
