Abstract:

Change management helps organizations to remain competitive and to address business challenges and opportunities and involves innovation by introducing new ideas or methods that bring improvements, by facilitating the development of an organization's environment, and by understanding how innovation processes are influenced by internal processes and external. Risk management involves identifying, assessing, and prioritizing risks and taking steps to manage and mitigate their effects. With the help of risk management, the implementation of innovative ideas is done in a controlled and calculated way, minimizing the potential negative effects of introducing change. The model proposed by the authors is based on the "action research model" - as a change management tool - in which the innovation management system was integrated with risk management, to improve the performance of an organization in the context of organizational change. To validate the benefits of this model, the implementation of the model was carried out within a Romanian organization in the field of construction materials production. In this paper, the authors present the partial results obtained in the implementation process. The final results will be presented in another article.
