Leading Organizational Change

Organizations embark on a journey through an ever-changing environment in conquest towards fulfilling a vision. During this journey, the organization has to adapt to the changes that they are facing, wherefore it is interesting to study how they are managing these challenges. In this thesis, the authors have examined how Platzer Fastigheter AB has managed a transition that aimed to prepare them for what the future has in store for them. The transition comprised the implementation of new core values, new key performance indicators and a new organizational structure. These organizational changes involved the whole organization, from the owners through the board of directors, the CEO, the middle management and down to the employees, wherefore a major part of it was change leadership. During the work with this thesis, the authors conducted a series of interviews with key personnel at Platzer Fastigheter AB that was supported with theory in order to give the authors a deep understanding of how the change process was conducted. Their study revealed that the link between establishing and realizing a vision is the ability to lead a constantly changing organization. Also, a more case specific conclusion was found which shows the importance of a project leader that has the overall responsibility for the process and can establish commitment through communication within the organization, and that leaders have to adapt their leadership to different situations.
