Organizations need to make effective changes to address VUCA conditions to survive and be sustainable. The readiness of members of the organization to make changes plays an essential role in ensuring the effectiveness of organizational's change. As a member of an organization, the risk management certificate holder is expected to be capable of ability and psychologically ready for organizational changes in implementing risk management. This study aims to provide empirical evidence regarding the readiness of competency-based risk management certificate holders to make changes, especially to implement more mature risk management in organizations. This study used a quantitative descriptive approach with a survey method. The survey was conducted online using a self-administered questionnaire modified and adapted from the Organizational Readiness for Implementing Change measurement tool. The sample in this study focused on individuals who have a general competency-based risk management certificate—the sampling technique conducted by convenience sampling technique. Regarding data analysis, the researcher used descriptive statistical analysis. This study indicates that 54.5% of competency-based risk management certificate holders have a high level of readiness compared to individuals in their group. It shows that risk management certificate holders have high readiness to make changes to implement risk management in their organization. The findings of the two dimensions also form the variable, namely, change commitment and change efficacy. The results show that the competency-based risk management certificate holders' change commitment impacts their readiness to make changes than their change efficacy. It indicates that the certificate holders have a higher share resolved to pursue the action than their shared belief in the collective capabilities to organize and execute the change in the organizations. From the findings of this study, organizations can develop strategies to further increase the confidence of their shared capabilities in organizations, especially for individual risk management certificate holders, so that the effectiveness of changes made by the organization in implementing risk management will be higher.

Higher Education Transformation has become a trend among colleges under the Ministry of Religious Affairs. The organizational readiness for change in status and function is not merely about an individual readiness, but the readiness of all of the organization. This research aimed at finding how high the readiness level in the transformation of STAKN Kupang to IAKN Kupang was. A quantitative approach was used by using a survey method. The questionnaire used was the Organizational Readiness for Implementing Change (ORIC) by Weiner which measures two dimensions of readiness named change efficacy and change commitment to face an organizational change. A sample of 50 people was taken out of the population of 200. The result of One Sample T-test shows tcount= 5,738, which compared to the value of ttable=0,67964. Since the t-count > t-table, H0 is accepted which means the readiness level in the institution transformation becoming IAKN Kupang is greater than or equals to 75% as expected (H0:m ≥ 75 %). Even though, STAKN Kupang is categorized into a high readiness level group, there are five factors to be considered in the future for the sake of its continuity and sustainability: organizational climate and culture, interpersonal relationship, leadership, past habit and mindset, and techonolgy implementation.  AbstrakTransformasi pendidikan tinggi di Indonesia telah menjadi tren di lingkup per-guruan tinggi di bawah Kementerian Agama. Kesiapan organisasi untuk beralih status dan fungsi tidak semata-mata berbicara mengenai kesiapan individu dalam organisasi melainkan kesiapan organisasi secara menyeluruh. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menemukan seberapa tinggi tingkat kesiapan dalam transformasi pendidikan tinggi dari STAKN Kupang menjadi IAKN Kupang. Pendekatan penelitian kuantitatif dengan metode survey digunakan dalam penelitian ini. Kuesioner yang digunakan adalah kuesioner Organizational Readiness for Implementing Change (ORIC) oleh Weiner yang mengukur dua dimensi kesiapan yakni keyakinan dan komitmen untuk berubah. Sampel penelitian yang digunakan adalah 50 orang dari total populasi 200 orang. Dari hasil uji One Sample t-test ditemukan harga t= 5,738, harga t tersebut selanjutnya dibandingkan dengan har-ga t-tabel =0,67964.

The work focuses on the study of psychological readiness for change and psychological resilience among employees of the State Criminal-Executive Service of Ukraine. It is shown that in the conditions of reforming, readiness for changes is a psychological condition for successful professional activity and personal self-realization of the staff of the criminal executive service. The content of the concept of “psychological readiness” and “psychological readiness for change” is disclosed, the purposefulness of the study of psychological resilience as one of the factors of psychological readiness for change is substantiated. The purpose of the study was to identify the features of the functioning of psychological readiness for changes in the context of psychological resilience of employees of the State Criminal-Executive Service of Ukraine. The PCRS (Change Personal Readiness Survey) method created by A. Rolnic, S. Heather, M. Gold, C. Hull (translation and adaptation by N. A. Bazhanova and G. L. Bardier) and questionnaire of human resilience (O. O. Rylska) were applied to solve empirical problems. The subjects were employees of the State Criminal-Executive Service of Ukraine, who were divided into groups according to the level of psychological readiness for change. The first group consisted of subjects with a high level of readiness for change, the second – with a low level. The scientific novelty of the research is determined by the fact that, for the first time, the features of psychological resilience in workers of the Criminal Executive Service of Ukraine in the context of psychological readiness for changes were established. It was found that the employees of the Criminal-Executive Service with a high level of psychological readiness for change are distinguished by the greater severity of psychological resilience components, such as adaptation and self-development. It is proved that the groups of employees of the Criminal-Executive Service with different levels of psychological readiness for change show differences in the structure of interrelationships between the components of psychological readiness for change and the components of psychological resilience. In both groups, the growth of psychological resilience on the whole is accompanied by a facilitation of psychological readiness for change. At the same time, in the group with high level of psychological readiness for change, there are almost twice as many interconnections between these phenomena, which indicate a more active interaction between them in this group, in contrast to the low-level group in which this interaction is rather limited. The obtained results allow us to conclude that the subjects with different levels of psychological readiness for change demonstrate differences both in the indicators of psychological resilience and in the structure of interrelations between the components of psychological readiness for change and psychological resilience. Less pronouncedness of a number of components of psychological readiness for change and a certain deficiency of its interaction with psychological resilience can hinder both the successful professional activity of low-level group and their optimal functioning in the personality’s sense. The results obtained in the study can be used to develop programs for psychological support of the professional activities of the staff of the Criminal-Executive Service at the stage of its reformation.
