Outcomes
Overview
Change is bigger than a project
In spite of the evidence, organisations repeatedly make the mistake of adding a change management component to their projects. This barely works out, if at all. Rather, organisations must manage change, which sometimes requires adding a project to the change program. This is the difference between marketing and training for your project or transforming your organisation through change to enable greater success.
How much would you gain if people got on board?
People get on board with change at different stages of the transformation. Initial innovators or senior executives who see the need or opportunity are often on board first. After that, people across the organisation, customers and stakeholders also embark. Sadly, it is common that many people don’t get on board. Some staff get dragged their heels, dampening progress and some investors and customers walk away, reducing the benefit change was meant to bring. The gains are eroded away.
The BASIC 8
This program draws on research, evidence and practice to address change as it really happens. The BASIC 8 framework combines phases with levels of responsibility and action. This is augmented by the lenses, modules focusing on the dynamics of different contexts of change.
Integrated Program Elements
The program combines layers to integrate the different avenues of
learning available in organisations.
Seminars - per group
Coaching - per person/small group
Progress measures - per round
On-line resources - The Learning Centre access is complimentary with the above
“Programs based primarily on the change drivers, ignoring the forces of resistance, are as prone to failure as those dealing primarily with the forces of resistance, ignoring the change drivers. What is needed is the choice of a change path based on a diagnosis of both the forces of change and resistance.”
Paul Strebel
