Higher Education and Academic Research Community

Hi,

I'm curating materials for organizational change management (OCM) and would love to tap into this group's collective wisdom. Whether you're teaching, researching, consulting, or leading transformation efforts, where do you typically find high-quality academic resources on OCM?

I'm especially interested in:

•     Peer-reviewed journals or articles with practical relevance
•     University syllabi or curated reading lists
•     Open-access repositories or databases
•     Authors or thought leaders whose work bridges theory and practice

Bonus points for sources that bridge the academic and practitioner worlds.

Looking forward to your insights-and happy to share a few of my favorites once the thread gets rolling!

Hi Michael,

Great question! Gartner has some fantastic research on change management and role-specific priorities around the work. They publish several studies each year. I highly recommend reaching out to them. I've spent many years leading change efforts in higher ed, so always happy to be a thought partner on your efforts as well. 

Best,

Thank you, Michael, for sharing your question and for the valuable work you do in Organizational Change Management (OCM)! This is a fantastic query for the group, especially given your interest in sources that bridge academic theory and practitioner experience. For peer-reviewed journals with high practical relevance, I'd suggest starting with the Journal of Organizational Change Management (JOCM), which often features actionable research. Regarding open-access repositories, checking out university institutional repositories, like those connected to the Academy of Management, can yield faculty papers, dissertations, and pre-prints that are often freely available. Which of your favorite resources are you looking forward to sharing once we get this thread going?

Hi Michael - on a related note, wanted to share about an upcoming Educause webinar happening this week:
Webinar | Change Management in the AI Era: Strategies, Case Studies, and Roadmaps in Higher Education
Nov 19, 12pm ET

The webinar may be somewhat of a sales pitch for Prosci, but I have definitely found some great insights from Prosci research over the course of my career. Sharing in the event that it is of interest to anyone in the group.
