| Summary: | The research study focuses on transformation management in a
welfare organisation and is aimed at developing a framework for
a prospective model for management of a transformation process
in a welfare organisation.
The research was directed by two components, the nature, and the
management of transformation, and was initiated with a literature
study on these two concepts. The research study is limited to
the Gauteng area, and only child and family welfare organisations
which were already active participants of a transformation
process were targeted.
Data collection process was initiated by means of a structured
interview schedule, completed by managers/senior social workers/
Board chairpersons (the target group) . Results of the study
indicate that a majority of the twenty targeted organisations had
undergone an unstructured transformation process. A structured,
well formulated, and planned transformation management process
was required as a guideline, with a view to developing a
prospective model for the management of a transformation process
in a welfare organisation.
Results and conclusions drawn from this study can be generalised
in the broader spectrum of welfare organisations for the
management of a transformation process. Further research is
needed to develop the required model. === Social Work === M.Diac. (Social Work)
