Kaizen Project / Change Projects
Change is inevitable in every business organisation. How that change is managed can have a major impact on business operations and staff morale going forward.It is normal to encounter some resistance to change. Employees may be unhappy with the status quo, but may feel threatened by the changes planned. By utilising expert change management techniques, you greatly increase the likelihood of achieving change and enjoying the desired rights on time and on budget.
Redefine consultants are experts in change management. We will work closely and individually with you and your business to implement the appropriate change management techniques for your own particular circumstances.
The Redefine Change Management Process
Our change management process is tailored to each individual set of needs, but common steps include:
- To assess the current state of the business/process
- To help create a realistic vision of the desired future state
- To support movement to a transition state of change
- To highlight obstacles and resistances to achieving the desired state
- To identify actions to overcome obstacles
- To support attainment of the desired state of change
We know that change management entails thoughtful planning and sensitive implementation. Above all, it also includes consultation with, and involvement of, the people affected by the changes. If you force change on people, normally problems arise. Change must be realistic, achievable and measurable.
Change Management strategy
Before starting organisational change, ask yourself:
- What do we want to achieve with this change, why, and how will we know that the change has been achieved?
- Who will be affected by this change, and how will they react to it?
- What help do we need in attaining this change?
It is key to understand who is going to be impacted by the change you want to implement.
Successful Change:
- Is attained in a timely manner
- Achieves the expected objectives/goals/results (defining performance)
- Is sustained over time
The key to aligning your organisation involves six aspects:
- Staffing
- Development
- Measures
- Rewards
- Communication
- Organisational design / job structure
