Strategies for organizational change: the role of the inside change agent. 1982

P L Hunsaker

An awareness of the advantages and disadvantages of internal positioning becomes the foundation on which the internal change agent builds an effective action plan for change--a plan that matches the specifics of the organizational situation being confronted. Basic principles have been described here to help define the specific type of role that the integral change agent should take, and to increase the chances for a successful change. As a change agent, you also need to develop specific change strategies that fit your unique characteristics and circumstances. Then, through the ways you communicate and the ways in which you see human resources, interpersonal strategies for influencing others can increase your personal control over situations.
