As an executive today, the likelihood that your organization is undergoing significant change is high. So is the likelihood of failure. McKinsey & Company's latest research reveals 70% of major change initiatives fail. Whether the content of your change includes new technology, reorganization, downsizing, restructuring, merger or acquisition (or a complex mix of changes) we have found that change leadership as a key component of the change management plan significantly increases implementation success.
Moore & Associates helps leaders lead and manage change and transition. Following are a few of the key change leadership deliverables we provide our clients - you may want to include them in your change management plan:
Develop the change leadership competencies of the senior team.
Position senior managers in key roles within the change initiative that play to each person's strengths.
Facilitate the development of a vision and strategy for the change.
Coach senior managers on how to develop followership for the change and buy-in from staff at all levels.
Provide strategic communication coaching to key senior leaders responsible for communicating all aspects of the change internally and externally.
Instill follow-through mechanisms led by senior managers to ensure course corrections are expedient, successes are celebrated, and the changes stick.
Teach the senior team about cultural and individual patterns of change resistance, how to proactively address them, and why resistance is necessary to get the best outcomes in a major change initiative.
Embed the change management process into the culture, creating a change-resilient organization able to lead and manage on-going future change regularly and more easily.
