The most common conception of this change process among dialectical scholars is a helical model, in which responsiveness to one dialectical pole, or opposite, creates pressure to attend to the opposite dialectical pole. Over time, a relationship pair cycles back and forth between responsiveness to the opposing demands" (Dialectical theories, 2009, Marriage and Family Encyclopedia). Thus, in the dialectical change model, the change that occurs is a reexamination of the underlying conflicts between different organizational actors.

The student body becomes more polarized, and regardless of what decision is made about the construction of the arena, a clear change has occurred. If it is built, the school may rise to prominence in national attention, attract more alumni donation, and draw forth a more spirited new pool of applicants. However, some students will feel they the school does not care and they will become alienated, and if the school becomes more 'rah-rah' in spirit, other students and even some prospective faculty members may turn away. Regardless of whether the stadium is built, the character of the school has changed due to polarized political wrangling, and one side must emerge the winner.

In that sense, Wilkoff (1995, as cited by Weick & Quinn, 1999) reports on her attempts to intervene between two companies that had fused together in an unsuccessful mergence.
