Issues Addressed
Markets are becoming more dynamic and the pace and demand for change is constantly increasing. To stay competitive, organizations need to continually increase their change capability and skill, as there is a direct relationship between results and the ability to innovate and change.
Every change effort is a laboratory. Without a formal review after the completion of an initiative, major learning is lost and subsequent change efforts suffer from not capturing the wisdom that is available.
Does your organization continue to make the same mistakes with change year after year? Many do. Formal reviews are not time consuming or costly, and they deliver tremendous return on investment. Imagine how you can use a review to help leaders see what blocks change results, whether it is aspects of your culture, their behavior, or the ways in which change is set up, resourced and led.
Approach
A change project review is a very efficient and effective study of what worked and did not work in a change effort. We utilize the activities in our Change Leader's Roadmap and our deep knowledge about culture, human dynamics and performance to determine best practices and ways to improve. We interview the change leaders, project team members, and end-users to identify patterns. We can also use a targeted online audit to supplement the review.
By including all key stakeholders in the review, we help your change project leaders see patterns that have previously gone unnoticed or undiscussed. Residual emotional issues are resolved, people feel renewed, and ready for the next wave of change.
Most importantly, system-wide and cultural limitations to change success are revealed. Removing these barriers improves results for every subsequent change.
Our change project review reveals insight about key areas in your change process, including:
- How the effort was initiated
- The clarity of the case for change and vision
- Efficacy of the change roles selected and the people who staffed them
- Change communications and its effectiveness
- Stakeholder engagement strategy and its impact
- Cultural and leadership impacts
- Change governance structure and how decisions were made
- Design requirements and how the design was determined
- Effectiveness of the methods used to reduce resistance and build commitment
- Implementation planning and execution
- Integration and mastery of the new state and the return on investment acheived
- Resource allocation
