Change Leadership
Many executives assume once they mandate an initiative or announce it in a town hall, that everyone gets on board and understands the importance of the project. Unfortunately, that is so far from the truth. Executives and sponsors need to be proactive and consistent when it comes to leading change throughout their organization.
- Articulate and communicate a clear vision for change to create urgency and buy-in; communicate the connections between an individual’s daily behaviors and the achievement of business and sales objectives.
- Influence and enthuse others through personal advocacy, vision, and drive
- Access resources to build a solid platform for change.
- Reduce uncertainty, fear and resistance through a proactive communication strategy
- Reinforce new, more desirable behavior
We help you build and apply an action plan to demonstrate sponsorship, providing clear direction and expectations for changes in workflow and behavior
Project Planning
Your change initiatives impact how individual people do their work, processes, job roles, workflows, reporting structures, behaviors and their identity within the organization.
A large part of OCM is understanding the impact of the change; ensuring processes, systems and people that are impacted are consulted early on and then customizing plans to sure successful adoption.
