Recommendations to FELMAUSA and its Constituency
in the Diaspora By: Ali Sylla May 27, 2009 Different
forces contribute to bring an overall change in an organization. These
forces are though unpredictable but Specialists have identified some of
the major forces that will be bringing an overall change in
organizations in the coming years. These forces are both internal as
well as external i.e. the change process will be initiated from within
the FELMAUSA organization as well as from outside forces. These major forces include people such as executive officers and the board of directors, and those in the organization’s committee as well. Technology is another factor such as rapid advancement in information technology and other new technologies. Third major force affecting the organizational change process is competition. Finally, Liberian government regulations are also a major factor in this regard. Though the above-mentioned forces are the major contributors in the overall organizational change process, however, there are still some unpredictable forces that may force organizations to change themselves, like allowing unqualified individuals to run an organization with iron fists.{Williams, 2002} Organizations benefit from predicting and planning for change in their structure rather than waiting for a time when change will become inevitable. A structural change usually involves rearrangements of the authority and reporting relationships and the way tasks are handled throughout the organization. A structural change brought in any organization can affect almost every aspect of organizational behavior. Any type of reorganization is difficult to bring and therefore must be carefully managed. When this happened, we need qualified brothers and sisters with the technical know how to rescue us from major mistakes of others. Please let us invest in competent brothers and sisters for the betterment of the Mandingoes’ community. Before making a decision to change, the organizations should carefully foresee and recognize different of resistance to change. Moreover, they must make the objectives of change and its details as clear as possible to community members, I personal experiences have taught me to listen to the needs of the community and not personal enhancement. Community members are the most important component of an organization {Brothers and Sisters our Mandingo Community is up for grab}. It is because of people that an organization survives and remains competitive and it is also because of people that an organization fails {Readers do your own judgment and the developments on FELMAUSA}. In order to initiate an effective change process it is necessary to bring the desired changes in an organization’s Leadership first. People usually resist changes brought to them by their leaders. {Williams, 2002} This resistance can be reduced or wiped out by making the Mandingo community understand that how this change is going to benefit them and making them clear the objectives of change. This can be done through open communications between the leadership and the Chapters’ community, but also structure and resourceful in planning and strategizing effectively and conducting or implementing meaningful activities for the development of future endeavors. |
