Summary / Abstract:

LTStraipsnyje siūloma mokslinė diskusija, siekiant aptarti kaitos proceso ir pokyčių valdymo sinergiją švietimo sistemoje, pažymint, kad du paskiri veiksniai, veikdami kartu, duoda didesnį poveikį ir socioekonominę grąžą / naudą. Aptariamas kaitos proceso ir pokyčių valdymo konceptas ugdymo įstaigose. Pažymima, kad kaitos procese ypač svarbu tinkamai suplanuoti pokyčius ir numatyti rezultatus, ne mažiau svarbu suprasti, kaip visi minėti pokyčiai bus įgyvendinti. Diskusiniai klausimai: kada kaitos procesai vyksta teisingai? Atsakymas: kai vadybiškai teisingai valdomi pokyčiai. Kaip bus užtikrinamas kaitos proceso vyksmas? Atsakymas: kaitos proceso vyksmas vyksta pokyčių valdymo lauke – sistemiškai, įgalinant visus pokyčių valdymo procesus. Straipsnyje pristatomas tyrimo metodologinis konstruktas, atskleidžiant kaitos proceso ir pokyčių valdymo sinergiją, remiantis pasirinktos ugdymo įstaigos pavyzdžiu.

ENThe authors analyse the process of change in the article and emphasize that the social change on the international and national level encourages the change management field in the education system of a particular country. These ideas stimulate the following problem statement: what factors lead to the synergy of the process of change and change management in the educational institutions? The authors encourage scientific discussion and invite to analyse the reasons for differences of the process of change and its results in the educational institutions taking into account that this process is determined by similar internal and external factors. The authors state that the systemic change management plays a decisive role in the process of change of an organisation. Thus, the aim of the analysis is to present the methodological concept of the research and to discuss the synergy of the process of change and change management in the educational institutions. In order to reach the aim, a logical sequence analysis of social phenomenon has been created. It reflects the tasks of the analysis: the concept of the process of change and change management is justified theoretically; regularities and principles of educational change are then presented; a theoretical background is used seeking to highlight the application of a model of integrated change management in the process of change of educational institutions; research methodology has been formulated; dimensions, criteria and indicators of the research have been identified. After the conceptualization of the process of change and change management field, reveal of synergy of educational change and change management, it was concluded that the classical concept of change may also be applied to the description of educational change and to the explanation that it is a transition from one state to another.However, the relation between education and change is more complex as it encompasses more components and the whole society. The main element in this concept is the fact that the educational change is always related to progress. In addition to this, the change shows the integrity and comprehensiveness of the process. The change includes the set of events: from the education policy through the local context and policy interpretation to the activities with the students. What is more, the change is inevitable while a person and an organisation are interrelated unconditionally. The educational change may be treated either as a construct of conscious and purposeful or as a natural process determined by the social laws. The latter process can be neither started nor stopped, it may only be given the desired pace, direction and acceptable character. The successful improvement of a school is determined by the strategy chosen properly which guarantees useful changes. It is important to notice that the synergy of change and change management is becoming obvious phenomenon. The forms of change, the stages of the process of change as well as successful techniques of the process of change are analysed in the article. Three theoretical assumptions are discussed in order to design the research. First, the integrated change management model is being applied. The model explains external and internal elements (micro level: individual understanding about the changes; meso level: leadership and organisational identity; macro level: general environment). Within the limits of the model, external (macro level), organisational culture (meso level) and individual (micro level) changes are being analysed. The authors supplement this theoretic model with the second theoretic insight which emphasizes the analysis field of the process of changes.This process is composed of the period before changes, period during which the changes take place and the period after the changes. It is emphasized that all three elements of the process are encompassed by organisational identity. Third, the expression of systemic changes in educational institutions is being discussed. In order to ensure sustainability of the changes, the theory of complexity is being applied. This theory includes the elements necessary for the analysis of systemic changes in educational institutions. On the basis of the theoretic constructs of the concepts of the process of change and change management, the authors present the research design in the third part of the work: the dimensions, criteria as well as indicators are presented in it. These elements will allow assessing the synergy of the process of change and change management in the particular organisations. The schools of general education of Ukmergė district municipality have been chosen for the analysis. These educational institutions reflect the required changes in education system at the regional level. The stages of the research together with the methods are being discussed as well. The authors invite for scientific discussion while discussing the synergy between the process of change and the change management in the system of education and emphasizing that two different factors give larger impact and socioeconomic benefits if they are used together. It is expected that the questions raised in the article and the methodological construct of the research will encourage deeper scientific discussions and will make an input to better results of interaction between the implementation of the process of change and change management of the system of education.
