The research identified the importance of practising, becoming and belonging for volunteers during initial training. Significant challenges in their early front-line practice were experienced alongside problems of processes, management, and organisation, and cultural challenges in terms of ‘fitting in’ and building relationships. The paper argues for the need to further professionalise police force approaches to new Special Constables and the need to shift away from a ‘finding their own way’ paradigm for new volunteer officers towards a structured, unified pathway of development.

A theoretical outline is offered which emphasises the strong links between HRM and organisational change literature, with a particular interest in the “soft” and “hard” elements of HRM in the context of change. Two distinct change programmes in two BAA airports, BAA, Glasgow and BAA, Edinburgh, are examined to identify the form and extent of HRM as a catalyst of organisational change.

It is generally recognised by senior managers as contributing to business effectiveness when it centres on business needs. It is integrated with business strategy processes at both strategic and operational levels. Indeed HRM is elemental to business strategic planning processes, which has the effect of reducing the potential gap between strategic rhetoric on HRM and practical implementation of HRM. Leadership and performance management are current HR policy priorities.Research limitations/implicationsThe ge...

It first explores hybrid models within the context of the face to face or virtual space as giving flexibility and opening opportunities for collaboration. It then presents an approach where all staff are encouraged to practice considering research, education and professional practice evidencing that this way of working can encourage a culture of continuous improvement. Following this cross discipline collaboration is explored highlighting its benefits and characteristics. The last part of the paper presents a series of suggestions that can be applied to any of these hybrid ways of working in order to be successful

Members must collectively learn better ways to work together toward common objectives. The Behaviours and Actions of leaders can have a major influence on encouraging and facilitating collective learning and innovation. In this era of fluid teams, virtual organisation, and joint ventures, boundaries are often unclear and loyalties are divided. Yukl (2009) presents the essence of effective leadership and is dependent on ten leadership functions being proactively implemented. One of these leadership functions is the encouragement and facilitation of collective learning. This paper reports the findings of an explorative questionnaire in which leaders provide an insight into perceptions of current leadership behaviours and actions that influence collective learning. From the literature, the authors identify leader behaviours and actions that...

Gornitzka (1999) and Allen (2003) suggest that the distinctiveness of governance, professional autonomy and the tradition of academic freedom in HEIs should be reflected in change processes, and therefore traditional frameworks for change could be adapted in an attempt to research and manage change. This paper explores how theoretical and practical tools for managing and researching change can be integrated in order to support change, whilst reflecting on the methods used. The journey of the authors towards the development of a holistic framework for researching and supporting change in Higher Education (HE), with a focus on two HEIs, is explored. The synergies of Lean Management (Wincel and Krull, 2013), Appreciative Inquiry (Cooperrider and Srivastva 1987), and Participatory Action Research (Greenwood et al, 1993) ...
