Change management

Defining change management

Efficient change management has a complete process and tools to help any company manages the internal and external situation while aiming and moving from a situation to another desired one that achieves the proposed business outcome. Change management helps in utilizing techniques that will make personal, tangible, and non-tangible transitions easy and effective through the entire stages of resistance, realization then adoption of the new culture. 

Introduction about change and its role.

Change is inevitable but resistance is optional so that effective leaders must anticipate that resistance and promote good culture to be sure that the company can reach its goal or new goal easily by the new plan, methods, people, machines, or materials that should be changed.   All companies will face particular moments where change is a crucial process that should be done or the whole organization will fail. Being able to educate the organization and communicate with each individual are your two keys to peaceful change management that will be difficult for sure. There four main tips while educating them as well as communicating and definitely our four steps are theoretically and practically valid.

Change communications

New paved way towards effective change

Firstly

focus on explaining why the company is doing what is doing? That’s called purpose; usually, people follow leaders who explain to them everything to convince them by rationality. Never think of using coercive power to obligate them to do what you want because they may ruin everything later even if they appealed to be calm and agreeable. If you can let them join the final meetings before launching any plan, that we be better because we want employees who are engaged.

Secondly

start with the end in mind as Dr.Stephen Covey once said, so let’s show them how the change will be and how it will work and beneficial for everybody. Tell them how the change will look and feel like so that they can accept it. Use the human mental power of imagination (visualization). They must have a picture in their mind about the future because when we are uncertain we tend to be anxious and that leads us to make horrible mistakes.

Thirdly

plan well for the whole and entire process of change and never start a plan without full potential resources of change are available and under control. Tell your workforce the true steps of transition from the current situation till the desired destination. Try to show them graphics, videos and research that can convince them that the plan is a perfect fit for them and train them on effective implementation of that plan.

Finally

 be part of the change and lead by example and I am asking you to walk the talk and never be a bad hypocrite preacher. Start by the higher-level management then middle and first-line managers before asking employees to move on and tell them how their actions, activities, and attitude is important to the main plan and never forget the human beings tend to know how to help and contribute in any successful plan.
