The change equation and how leadership, communication, and involvement can build commitment for change is examined. Strategies like surfacing barriers early, identifying gaps, and choosing the right communication tools are suggested. Finally, it notes what really drives organizational culture change like leader attention and role modeling. In summary, the document provides a comprehensive overview of factors critical to the success of large-scale organizational transformation efforts.

1. Change Management

2. Key Features of Successful
Transformational Change
• It is designed around the business
drivers
• It wins emotional and intellectual
support
• It models and reinforces the new way
of working
• It puts significant investment into
communications
• It creates experiences that shape
future behaviour
• It aligns all the dimensions of
management behind the change
• It releases talent, creativity and
ingenuity – often in unexpected ways
• Incorporate the drivers into the project
plan
• Develop clear engagement / involvement
strategies
• Accomplished before, during and after
implementation
• Communicate from the very start of the
project
• Align and engage all levels of
management behind the change
• Allow for processing resistance and
conflict – natural during change
• Provide processes that emotionally
support people through all parts of the
change
Key Features Implications

3. Ten Points of Potential Failure
1. A continued discrepancy between top management statements of values or styles
and their actual managerial behaviour – Saying one thing and doing another
2. A big programme of activities without any clear goals for change
3. Confusion between ends and means – the question of ‘training for what’ must be
answered
4. Short-term perspective. Three to five years is a realistic time framework for
organisational change
5. Lack of coordination between a number of different activities aimed at increasing
organisational effectiveness
6. Overdependence on others – either outside consultants or inside specialists
7. Large gap between the commitment to change at the top of the organisation and
the transfer of this interest to the middle of the organisation
8. Trying to fit a major organisational change into an old organisational structure
9. The constant search for cookbook solutions
10. Applying an intervention or strategy inappropriately. The tendency to apply
someone else’s package

4. The Need for a Compelling
Business Case
Strong data-driven rationale
• A specific research-based reason for change
• Linked directly to performance goals
Clarification and communication of vision
Compelling reason and urgency behind change activities
Focused strategy for stakeholder engagement
Identification of critical audiences and gap analysis
Realistic understanding of organisational implications
Formal; informal; people; tasks

5. The Need for a
Burning Platform

6. The Need for a
Strong Foundation
Create a shared, defined and
robust view of the imperatives
for change and performance
requirement
Decide on the vehicle for
change (e.g. process
redesign, cost reduction,
culture change, closer
alignment with customers)
Assess the organisation’s
readiness and capability for
change
Identify stakeholders

7. The Change Equation
(Beckhard)
Information

happening to
the IFC and me,
and why
Changing individual behaviour requires both new information and new
experiences

organisation, its
management
and my own
capability
A shift in
my
behaviour
and
attitudes

8. Leadership
Moving one or more people from where they happen to
be to some other place
Clear committed leadership is vital to the success of any
change

9. Key Features of
Leading Change
• Making the journey and destination compellingly attractive
• Helping people see a future they want to be part of
• Helping people find a purpose and meaning for themselves
• Requesting commitment
Enrolling
Enabling
Energising
Exemplifying
• Helping people see possibilities for their contribution
• Challenging self-limiting beliefs
• Setting (together) stretching targets
• Building self-esteem, confidence and trust
• Putting into action
• Building and sustaining people’s energy
• Celebrating successes
• Giving recognition
• Expressing optimism
• Demonstrating the behaviours and values that are being
required of others

10. Key Features of
Leading Change
• Explain the basic
purpose behind the
outcome
• ‘What was the
problem?’
• Who said so and on
what evidence?
• What would have
occurred if no one
had acted to solve
it?
• What could have
happened to us if
that had occurred
Purpose Picture Plan Part
• Paint the picture of
how the outcome
will look and feel
• What is the
outcome going to
look, feel and sound
like?
• How are people
going to get their
work done and
interact with each
other?
• How will a day be
organised?
• Lay out the plan for
phasing in the
outcome
• Outline steps and
schedules in which
people will receive
information, training &
support they need to
make the transition
• People oriented to tell
employees how and
when their worlds are
going to change
• Start with where
people are & work
forward to leave the
past behind and
emerge with new
attitudes, behaviours
& identity
• Establish each
person’s part in both
the plan and the
outcome
• Show employees the
role & their relationship
to others. Until they
see it they can’t adjust
hopes & fears to the
new reality
• Show employees what
part they play in the
outcome & the
transition process

12. Plan from the Perspective
of the Recipients of Change
Board
Senior Mgmt Team
• Where do we want them to be?
• What initiatives will help them get there?
• Is the ‘load’ of change reasonable & within capabilities?
• What projects do we need to provide the initiatives

14. Surfacing Potential
Barriers Early On
• Strategy
• Structure
• Process
• Operating principles
• Culture/behaviour
• Jobs
• People
• Change gets bogged because barriers are not dealt with soon
enough or openly enough to keep the change process moving
• Barriers may exist anywhere and everywhere – even the difficult-
to-see places…
• Leadership
• Management
• Resources
• Systems
• Rewards
• Values/Beliefs
• Capabilities
Consider: How will this
change effort affect…?

• Day-to-day behaviour and signals need to live the vision

17. The Transition Curve:
How Attitudes & Feelings Change
Confidence
Time
“I’m not sure I know
what’s going on”
“I feel overwhelmed”
“I can handle this”
“We can’t do this. It won’t work. We’re not allowed”
“Actually, things might get better”
“This could be a better way of doing it”
“This way is more effective”
“S/he really made the effort to help us
implement this change”

18. Making Sense of the Journey
The information they receive
Their work and how they do it
The context in which they do their work
The needs of the organisation
To change their behaviour, employees need to see the link between:

22. Ten Strategies for Employee
Involvement
1. Meet regularly with employees and openly discuss the organisational changes and
why they occurred
2. Recognise that employees understand that you may not have the answers to
everything, but it’s important for them to feel the communications are open and
honest
3. Constantly communicate clear goals and vision of the new situation
4. Encourage people to discuss fears and concerns in teams
5. Open ‘suggestion boxes’ for employees to raise questions in anonymity
6. Set up weekly lunches or other informal meetings to discuss the progress of the
restructuring process
7. Whenever possible, assign roles and responsibilities in line with peoples interests
8. Develop rituals and marker events that allow people to connect
9. Involve employees affected by the changes in making decisions about what’s best
for them
10. Discuss realistic career options with employees and ensure training is available for
any new skills that are needed

23. Coaching Others in Building
Employee Commitment
1. Identify individuals or groups whose commitment is necessary to
the success of the change effort
2. Create and follow a departmental plan to increase commitment of
all players
3. Continually encourage and enable employee involvement
4. Continually communicate the goals of the change process
5. Turn covert resistance to overt resistance and then to
commitment
6. WALK THE TALK!

24. What People Pay Attention To:
1. Leader attention, measurement, rewards and controls
2. Leader reaction to critical incidents
3. Leader role modelling, coaching
4. Criteria for recruitment, promotion, retirement and excommunication
5. Formal and informal socialisation
6. Recurring systems and procedures
7. Organisation design and structure
8. Design of physical space
9. Stories and myths about key people and events
10. Formal statements, charters, creeds, codes of ethics etc
Between 80-90% of behaviour is determined by
the first three points
