Abstract | This case study explores the use of survey feedback--an organizational development technique--in an educational field setting. A version of survey feedback was used with an alternative high school to assist the staff in defining problems and in developing and implementing change strategies. Based on a perspective that focuses attention on the organizational context in which educators operate, the intervention combined organizational theory, survey methods, and group problem-solving techniques. The impact on the organization of the school was assessed through interviews, observations, and a readministration of the original survey instruments. The results showed that, after the workshop, staff members used organizational theory to define problems and continued to rely on problem-solving techniques to develop solutions. Between the two surveys there were some significant changes in the school's organizational patterns and levels of conflict. (Author) |
