Response to question 1: The major issues, dilemmas and conundrums raised
by the reading?
Change refers to the process of developing, altering, or doing things differently.
Therefore the present problems faced by various institutions including the schools are that either
they need to adapt themselves to the changes taking place internally and externally or they may
have to shut down. Change in organizations can take place through social interaction that can
help in sustaining new perspectives and practices. Therefore in order to adapt to these changes
successfully, the people in the organization need to learn new ways of thinking, interpretation,
perception and various others (Bridgman, 2016). However some of the major problems in
carrying out any changes arise mainly because of resistance of people to change because they do
not want to change their normal routine and they are afraid and insecure of adapting to changes.
There is fear of unknown that also causes people to resist changes. An organization can carry out
these changes effectively through proper leadership and leaders who can help in managing and
guiding the learning and change process in the organization. The main challenge in front of the
school leaders is to carry out the process of change in a more planned way or the change has to
be an intentional one (Cameron & Green, 2015). They need to carry out proper planning,
direction and establishment activities such that the teachers can learn properly and that can
ultimately help in providing better outcomes for the students. These are some of the reasons why
organizations adopt the model of Kurt Lewin to carry out changes in the organization in response
to the changes taking place in the external and internal environment.
