“…Governments are acutely conscious of the need to educate adults failed by existing institutions (HCPAC 2009), and internationally there are many countries seeking solutions to the problem of educating a population without the resources or opportunities of university education (Daniel, Kanwar, and Uvalic-Trumbic 2009). Christensen's model predicts that the risk for universities lies in the emergence of new institutions and organisations that meet the needs of these non-participants (Christensen, Anthony, and Roth 2004). It is a short step from serving this group to more cheaply and efficiently serving significant proportions of the university's current student population.…”

“…Structures within the organisation are then organised in a loosely coupled manner (Weick 1976). Christensen, Anthony, and Roth (2004) identify three types of organisational change. 'Sustaining' changes are ones that improve the function of the organisation in ways that are consistent with previous activities.…”

Change, technology and higher education: are universities capable of organisational change?

Technology and change are so closely related that the use of the word innovation seems synonymous with technology in many contexts, including that of higher education. This paper contends that university culture and existing capability constrain such innovation and to a large extent determine the nature and extent of organisational change. In the absence of strong leadership, technologies are simply used as vehicles to enable changes that are already intended or which reinforce the current identity. These contentions are supported by evidence from e-learning benchmarking activities carried out over the past five years in universities in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand.

Product-Focused Software Process Improvement

Abstract. Sustaining innovation in a fast growing software development company is difficult. As organisations grow, peoples' focus often changes from the big picture of the product being developed to the specific role they fill. This paper presents two complementary approaches that were successfully used to support continued developer-driven innovation in a rapidly growing Australian agile software development company. The method "FedEx™ Day" gives developers one day to showcase a proof of concept they believe should be part of the product, while the method "20% Time" allows more ambitious projects to be undertaken. Given the right setting and management support, the two approaches can support and improve bottom-up innovation in organizations.

“…Although innovation theories often emphasize the innovator´s role in the process Christensen, Anthony and Roth (2004), others take a completely different stance. Michael Schrage argues that the innovative prototype creates innovations, not the innovator (Schrage 1999).…”
