Organizational Change

There are times when change is more top down driven and the perceived need for it may not be immediately obvious within organization, e.g. – when change is necessitated primarily by changes in environment and there’s a quick need for response.

How do you ensure that organizational change efforts stay on track during such times?

A few things can help:

·       A shared understanding of what are change outcomes being targeted. These need to be something that’s easily understood.

·       A deeper level understanding of what’s needed to change at individual level. If you feel powerless in entire change, then you just flow along.

·       Frequent communication on progress against change, and frequent re-iteration of change objectives.

·       Some celebration. Organization change can be hard. Celebrations when key milestones are reached can be a motivation booster.
