Disruption as a resource: Conflict management with a dynamic sociogram constellation

Abstract

The following article in the journal Gruppe. Interaktion. Organisation (GIO) deals with the potential that disturbances and conflicts can unfold for the survival of organizations and why, from a constructivist and group-dynamic point of view, it is almost imperative for a successful change management to raise this potential. One possibility of methodical implementation is exemplified by the format of a dynamic sociogram constellation, which formed the methodical core of a change process at a school.
