Re-structuring Somalia’s Ailing Institutions: Notes on Conceptual Framework

Abstract

This article explores two related questions: (1) can Somalia’s public institutions be reengineered using the world’s most renowned organizational change theories? (2) where should change begin in a system protracted by corruption and constitutional unrest? Considering these two questions, the paper is divided into four parts. The first part gives a historical overview of Somalia’s immediate past and how, applying the organizational development (OD) concepts, successful interventions can be carried out in the public service sector in Somalia.
The second part presents areas of potential interventions. The third part offers, in brief, a mechanism for change evaluation. The fourth, and final, part summarizes ways OD practitioners could institutionalize change for sustainable results.
