takes place in context that continuously changes; goes along with power-struggle in many cases;
is often the unplanned result of planned actions;
change management ........ is much more adaption
than controlling

Adaptive Change Processes
Linear Change Processes
Context of Change
Continuum
Based on clear and perceivable cause and effect relationships
Logical step by step result focused
Clearly and fully specified at start
Simple predetermined measureable indicators
Recognises complexity and uncertainty of interactions
Iterative, principle based, relationship oriented, experimental
Indicative and iterative, based on feedback and learning relationships
Learning and process oriented, explains expected and unexpected results
Theory of Change Examining assumptions and theories
about how change occurs
Intervention Logic Deciding on strategies that will be
followed to influence/create change
Action Planning Organising and executing intervention
strategies
Monitoring and evaluation Assessing, judging and explaining the
results of interventions
Paradigms of Development Recognising overall worldview, values
and perspectives on development
The world is largely knowable, predictable and change can be controlled
The world evolves in unpredictable ways that can be only partly influenced
Unordered Aspects (Complex and Chaotic)
Ordered Aspects (Simple and Complicated)
