    Stugil,

    Sounds like change management when applied to a shrinking UK military attempting to maintain individual and unit quality and "punch", sorry capability - rather than a defeat!

    The UK military have been shrinking for a long time, so there is some history which may help. We do have a few UK members and Jim Storr is a friend, he lives close to B'ham.

    If you mean what I think you mean by "change management", that is, how a military adapts and changes to the environment and enemy it is faced with- you could take a look at "Closing with the Enemy" by Doubler. It may be a little light for an academic paper, but it should be a quick read.

    Great stuff.
    I'll be focusing on operational level organizational change, so perhaps Commanding Officers +/- a level. My suspicion is that it's a case of "get on with it!" Without any CM coaching/mentoring. I can compare the frontline CM (mission command) and its relevance with facilitating org CM.
