General Consequence

The Author initially examines the organizational phenomenon of voluntarism within the broader context of the institutional restructuring processes of modern welfare, and proceeds to analyze the main structural characteristics of voluntary organizations in Italy and the different - and sometimes conflicting - organizational dynamics that can currently be found. These are, in general, consequence of the «tension» that has matured within the associations between the original mission and the professionalization of the services, between tradition and innovation. The aim is to analyze organizations' attitudes towards strategic management of change and towards the development of project management autonomy, essential to preserve social identity in the process of professionalizing services.

There is nothing in this world that do not change unless the change itself. Almost every aspect of the world, particularly the world of IT, can changed. In project management software, for instance, people have to work on software that frequently subject to change. That is why the greatest challenge faced by the company within today's competitive world is how to deal with those changes. In relation with the previous explanation, the objective of this research is to standardize project management in software development by using change management. Objective will finally help project developer to ensure that the management of project has a need of standardization that essential for reflecting the current business needs. To achieve the objectives, this research will also attempt to show why does the standardization using the change management is essential task, which is almost inevitable. This research directed for discussing about the management of change as a common way to reduce risks, costs and maximizing the benefit from major changes in business and information technology. The result showed that the project can determined as success because it delivered on time, on budged and have a standardized quality.

This research covered the strategic intent for the transport industry and an overview of Transport Authorities in the municipal sphere of government. Representative sets of strategic management and change navigation models, as well as Swanepoel’s (2001) model being used in the management of change in the public sector, were reviewed. An integrated strategic management model, which incorporates principles from strategic management and change navigation, is proposed for navigating the establishment of Transport Authorities. This model consists of six phases, namely: Awareness and Mobilisation; Strategic Synthesis and Choice; Strategy Crafting; Strategy Implementation; Performance Monitoring and Review; and Stabilisation. Recommendations follow regarding the validation of the model in a pilot project. OpsommingHierdie navorsing het gefokus op die strategiese oogmerk vir die vervoerindustrie en ’n literatuuroorsig van Vervoerowerhede op munisipale regeringsvlak. Verteenwoordigende modelle vir strategiese bestuur en veranderingsbestuur, asook Swanepoel (2001) se bestuursmodel wat aangewend word vir die bestuur van verandering in die openbare sektor, word bespreek. ’n Geïntegreerde strategiese bestuursmodel, wat die grondslae van strategiese bestuur en veranderingsbestuur inkorporeer, word voorgestel om die stigting van Vervoerowerhede te stuur. Hierdie bestuursmodel bestaan uit ses fases, naamlik: Bewuswording en Mobilisering; Strategiese Analise en Keuse; Strategie Formulering; Strategie Implementering; Prestasiemonitering en Hersiening; en Stabilisering. Aanbevelings word gemaak rakende die bekragtiging van die model in ’n proefprojek.

Socio Economic Development

The paper features the problems of strategic management of social and economic development at the regional and municipal levels. Currently, the legal and the regulatory framework that ensures the management of socio-economic development at the regional and municipal levels is quite dynamic and corresponds with the current conditions and challenges. The legal and regulatory framework in the field of strategic management is formed not only as an institutional basis for socio-economic development: it also represents a thoroughly developed system of methods and tools for developing strategic documents and ensuring their implementation. However, normative legal documents reflect, as a rule, a traditional view of the implementation of the strategic planning process, formed within the scientific schools of design and planning, with the inclusion of individual elements of advanced technologies of strategic management. Federal authorities have consistently formed the basis for the actual strengthening of the role of the methodology of strategic management in regional and municipal management. The consistent implementation of the program-target approach, the methodology of strategic planning, the principles of project management in the practice of state and municipal management forms the basis for applying the principles of agile public administration as the basis for strategic management in real-time. Independence, initiative, innovation, openness, agile, competence, and high motivation will increasingly determine success in the practice of state and municipal government. Hence, successful work on overcoming the resistance of the administrative bureaucratic management system will be a pledge of effective implementation and application of mechanisms and technologies of project management and agile public administration.

The basic tenet of this article is that the implementation of project management as a way of managing, in formerly functionally structured organisations, is a complex process requiring strategic management intervention. The three outstanding issues contributing to this complexity are expounded. These are differing characteristics of the range of an organisation's projects that must be provided for: the inherent characteristics of functional organisations inhibiting to a cross-functional approach that need to be overcome: and the very necessary mind shift to the project management culture that needs to be instilled. The ground rules for project management implementation is laid down by way of eight questions that must be answered on top management level. These resolve around a firm commitment to the replacement of old, seemingly well proven practices as well as around the implications and consequences for the organisations. The article then proceeds with proposing framework for the process of project management and implementation. This is presented in seven steps, concluding that the implementation should be approached as a project in own right. To that effect a generic work breakdown structure is offered as a guideline.

Shed Light

Generalized exchange is a powerful prosocial behavior with a number of individual and collective benefits, but indirect repayment makes it riskier than other forms of exchange, and this risk is reflected in comparatively lower rates of giving in generalized exchange systems. This study tests whether sharing a social identity motivates greater giving in generalized exchange. It also examines important, but often overlooked, differences between two forms of social identity: category-based social identity, which stems from similarities, and group-based social identity, which stems from interactive, interdependent relationships. As predicted, results of a controlled laboratory experiment demonstrate group-based social identity has a stronger impact than category-based social identity on giving in generalized exchange. The findings of this study have important implications for the study of social identity and, more generally, the study of categories and groups. The findings also shed light on ways groups, such as nonprofit and voluntary organizations, may motivate greater generosity in the prosocial process of generalized exchange.
