Identify a current change in an organization with which you are familiar. Alternatively, identify a current public issue about which "something must be done." In relation to the change issue, think about what sense-making changes might need to be enacted and how you would go about doing this. Assess this in terms of the eight elements of the sense-making framework suggested by Helms Mills and as set out in Table 9.7:
Identity construction
- Social sense-making
- Extracted cues
- Ongoing sense-making
- Retrospection
- Plausibility
- Enactment
- Projection
What ones did you feel you might have the most/least control over? Why? What implications does this have for adopting a sense-making approach to organizational change?
