  • Anything that’s dependent on people working in a new way typically needs a considered change management approach.
  • Sometimes it’s not an obvious change opportunity:
    • You want to increase sales or bring a new product or service
    • You want to improve processes, introduce new technology or restructure teams
    • You want your teams to align on shared goals, working collaboratively
  • Change is the engine room of implementing a strategy

  • Communication drives everything.
  • Typically that could look like:
    • Communicating regularly and proactively during change to build trust, sometimes even when there’s nothing new to say to keep dialogue open
    • Tailoring communications to the different communities and audiences we’re talking to for greater impact
    • Communicating at the right time and using the right channel so messages resonate with people
    • Being visual whenever possible
    • Joining up change interventions to create one holistic change experience for your people
  • We start by explaining the why. So, every time we’re asking people to do something. Why? What are we driving towards? Why is it important for all of us? and most importantly of course, ‘what does it mean for me?’, treating people as individuals

  • We work together with you to deeply tailor solutions to your context
  • We ask questions to find out about your culture, your operating context, how previous change has landed, how your people feel about change now and what expectations the business might have
  • Listening to your answers and understanding your situation are critical to creating a bespoke solution that’s right for you and creating the conditions for success

  • Organisational readiness:
    How ready for change is your organisation?
  • Leader Alignment:
    How aligned are your leaders on the change?
  • Change Programme Effectiveness:
    How effective do your people think your change initiative is?
  • Based on what we’ve learnt about your organisation, we co-create solutions unique to your context and, what you want to achieve. We focus on achieving outcomes, delivering tangible value early and regularly
  • Where possible, working with people who will be impacted by change to shape solutions, creating ownership. Managers for example, are key to the change effort, because they sit in a unique position between operational reality and strategy
  • It also means your change is grounded in real life, because it’s been co-created by those who will ultimately be responsible for embedding it
  • We work in partnership with your people to upskill you to sponsor and lead change effectively building a lasting change
  • That could mean helping leaders to be more visible and inspire their people to move to new ways of working, helping your managers to create the motivation, skill and opportunities for people to work in new ways.
  • Embedding change so it sticks is all about being clear on what success looks like and how we’re going to track towards it. Aligning leaders on one clear change narrative and north star,creating a joined up change experience for your people
  • We adopt flexible, iterative approaches, pivoting as we gather new insights during the change process or as your business changes

  • People-led means that the people who are going to be impacted by your change have a chance to share their voice, or where possible shape what that change looks like, and how it’s implemented

  • Implementing change is about focusing action and effort towards a series of micro nudges that take us to the best outcome. It’s not necessarily about one big change, but incremental improvements and working with your people to refine solutions based on end user feedback.
  • It’s not about getting everything perfect until you go out into the world. Agility is about having an adaptive, growth mindset and being willing to pivot when circumstances change, which they inevitably do
