JOY IN THE WORKPLACE FORCE FIELD ANALYSIS

Force Field Analysis Template

In the table below, list your recommendation of a social communication strategy or technology strategy for implementing the “Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) Framework for Improving Joy in Work” in the workplace. Then, list five facilitating forces and five restraining forces for and against implementing this recommendation.

Using the following scale, score each of your facilitating and restraining forces from 1 to 5 according to the degree of influence each force would have on your recommendation:

1 = very weak

2 = slightly weak

3 = neither weak nor strong

4 = slightly strong

5 = very strong

To calculate the “Facilitating Forces Total Score”, add your five scores for the facilitating forces and enter this number in the last row of the chart.

To calculate the “Restraining Forces Total Score”, add your five scores for the restraining forces and enter this number in the last row of the chart.

To calculate the “Force Field Analysis Total Score”, substract the “Restraining Forces Total Score” from the “Facilitating Forces Total Score” and enter this number in the middle column of the last row of the chart. If the difference is positive, move forward with implementing the recommendation. If the difference is negative, reconsider implementing the recommendation.
