Building Motivation
Communicate Why the Redesign is Needed
People need a compelling reason to change. With all of the changes being requested and demanded of people in the current world, people must be convinced that change is necessary.
Even when leadership initiates organizational change, it is often experienced as just one more unrealistic and often absurd demand. Employees are likely to respond in a passive-aggressive manner and simply do things the same. The previously engaged workforce may suddenly start misplacing things, ignoring e-mails, and spending hours talking with colleagues about what is happening. It is the leadership’s responsibility to not only have a vision but to also see that motivation for the change effort is high. Consultants can be helpful to management in this regard, but ultimately it is management’s responsibility. An offhand announcement of a redesign can literally bring production to a halt in a business. Even though management feels the redesign is in the employees’ best interest, if they are not properly prepared and brought in, the employees are likely to respond to the news in a way that will not move things forward. In fact, without a timely and wise explanation of why changes are needed, they may see the redesign as irresponsibility on the part of management.
Communicating Credible Reasons and Expectations for the Redesign
Management must take the time not only to provide a clear vision of the redesign but to also communicate why the redesign is necessary. The cost of not taking time to communicate credible reasons as to why the redesign was done and providing credible expectations of what it will take to realize the benefits of the redesign, will cost the company dearly.
One way to build support is to involve employees and other stakeholders in the diagnosis and redesign. This takes time, but it helps employees understand why the redesign is important and builds motivation for making it work. However, if management already has its mind made up and is going to do what it wants to do regardless, involvement can backfire in a big way.
At the least, a communication campaign is essential. The campaign must be honest because employees and other stakeholders can see through the spin and hype.
Do not Ignore Resistance
Resistance is feedback. Figure out why it is there, and do not force it. Like the plumber or mechanic who forces a part to fit, the likely result is generally a broken part. Force generally does not work and is nearly always expensive and time-consuming. Resistance is natural. Ohm’s lawapplies to human behavior much like it does in physics—there is always resistance. Good managers and consultants learn from the resistance and manage it.
Managing the Changing Relationships
Acknowledge Changing Relationships and Responsibilities
Redesigns nearly always change relationships and responsibilities. Not addressing these lead to conf.
