7 important change
management principles for
transformations
http://www.consultancy.uk/news/12317/7-important-change-management-principles-for-
transformations
1/16/2018 www.ABOVEorBEYONDjm.COM23
24. Successfully implementing a
transformation programme
Sis notorious for the challenges it
poses managers and organisations.
Shuman capital and people factors
S play an instrumental role in navigating
transitions to their desired end-state.
1/16/2018 www.ABOVEorBEYONDjm.COM24
25. 3 dimensions play a key
role:
S ‘speed of adoption’
S (how quick employees are brought on board),
S ‘ultimate utilization’
S (how many employees adopt the new way of working) and
S ‘proficiency’
S (how effective employees are once they make the transition).
S In this presentation we explore the 7 main change
management principles that can positively influence these
dimensions.
1/16/2018 www.ABOVEorBEYONDjm.COM25
26. 1. Active and visible executive
sponsorship
S Employees look to senior leaders for messages
S (both spoken and unspoken)
S about the project’s importance and the organisation’s commitment to the
change.
S They want to hear the big-picture impact messages from the CEO or
business executive.
S That is why it is important that executive sponsors communicate
directly with employees about the reasons for change.
1/16/2018 www.ABOVEorBEYONDjm.COM26
27. 1. Active and visible executive
sponsorship
S They should not just announce the change and
then walk away,
S but also participate actively and visibly throughout the
change process.
S They have to demonstrate support for the change
project in words and actions,
S build a powerful guiding coalition and manage
resistance.1/16/2018 www.ABOVEorBEYONDjm.COM27
28. 2. Structured change
management approach
S A structured change management approach is advisable to
avoid shortcutting the change process.
S In our business transformation trajectories we use the
“ADKAR” methodology of Prosci.
S ADKAR, stands for
S Awareness, Desire, Knowledge, Ability and
Reinforcement.
1/16/2018 www.ABOVEorBEYONDjm.COM28
33. The first step to enable change is to
create awareness of the need for
change.
S Desire is the second step and represents the motivation and choice to support
and participate in a change.
S Knowledge is the third step and represents how to implement change and
includes understanding of how to change.
S The presence of knowledge is often insufficient by itself and therefore
S ability is the fourth step in which the capability to implement the change is
demonstrated.
S Reinforcement is the final step and prevents individuals from slipping back into
old behaviours.
S It also stimulates continuous improvement and adaptability.
1/16/2018 www.ABOVEorBEYONDjm.COM33
34. “Only A Wet Baby
Welcomes Change”
Dr. Sandra Palmer
1/16/2018 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 34
35. 3. Engagement and integration
with project management
S In managing change we tend to focus more on the ‘technical’ side
(designing, developing and delivering change solutions) than the
‘people’ side (embracing, adopting and utilising change solutions)
of change.
S In doing so, we seem to underestimate that both elements
complement each other and should go hand in hand to increase
the probability of success.
S Change management is most effective when it is launched at
the beginning of a project and integrated into the project
activities.
1/16/2018 www.ABOVEorBEYONDjm.COM35
36. 4. Employee engagement,
participation and resistance
management
S People go through an emotion curve with alternating positive and negative emotions or
reactions.
S They show varied behaviour in each phase of the change.
S People need to say goodbye to the old situation and become comfortable with the new
situation.
S Your success rate will largely increase when individuals are given guidance throughout
this curve.
S You have to realise that individuals are at different points of the emotion curve at a
certain moment of your change initiatives.
S So it is advisable to adjust your management style and communication accordingly.
1/16/2018 www.ABOVEorBEYONDjm.COM36
38. Managing resistance often is
seen as difficult to deal with,
S because it can be tough and confronting. Resistance can also
be seen as a sign of commitment and passion.
S You should embrace resistance, because it provides an
opportunity to start a dialogue and to identify the obstacles
that prevent change from happening.
S You can also minimise resistance by actively involving
employees in the change process.
S Participation creates passion and commitment to change.
1/16/2018 www.ABOVEorBEYONDjm.COM38
39. 5. Frequent and open communication
about the change and the need for
change
S A good communication plan, covering all stakeholders and timing of
messages, is needed to support the change process.
S When communicating the why and impact of change, you can use multiple
communication channels such as e-mails, newsletters, presentations and
face-to-face communication.
S Face-to-face communication is preferable to other forms of communication,
especially when the change is large and impactful.
S Research shows that it is good to share information early and often and to
involve employees in the change process.
1/16/2018 www.ABOVEorBEYONDjm.COM39
40. 6. Engagement with and support
from middle management
S Accountability for managing the people side of change should rest
not only rest with executive sponsors but also with middle
managers.
S Middle managers can often make or break successful change.
S They can be the most difficult to convince of the need for change
and can be a ‘layer of loam’ instead of a fertile ground for change.
S That’s why it is vital for the change management team to get
executives and middle managers on board early on in the change
process.
1/16/2018 www.ABOVEorBEYONDjm.COM40
41. As shown in the picture below,
S executives and middle managers are able to positively
influence the “ADKAR scores” when they fulfil their
change management roles. For example, when they
effectively communicate they will positively influence
the awareness of the need for change. The role of the
change management team is to engage with and
support executives and middle managers in effectively
leading change initiatives.
1/16/2018 www.ABOVEorBEYONDjm.COM41
44. Understanding The Roles
& Responsibilities
of a Middle Manager:
MIDDLE MANAGEMENT IN BUSINESS IS LIKE
THE FOOTBALL MIDFIELDER
16/01/2018 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 44
45. The Football Midfielder
Most managers assign at least one midfielder to disrupt the
opposing team's attacks, while others may be tasked with creating
goals, or have equal responsibilities between attack and defence.
Midfielders are the players who typically travel the greatest distance
during a match.
Because midfielders arguably have the most possession
during a game they are among the fittest players on the
pitch.
16/01/2018 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 45
46. Advanced Playmaker
The attacking midfielder is an important position that requires
the player to possess superior technical abilities
◦ in terms of passing and dribbling.
◦the ability to read the opposing defence in order to deliver defence-
splitting passes to the striker.
The midfield maestro is a deep-lying playmaker who is
capable of controlling play and dictating attacks.
16/01/2018 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 46
47. Advanced Playmaker
This specialist midfielder's main role is to create good shooting and goal-
scoring opportunities using
◦superior vision, control, and technical skill,
◦by making crosses, through balls, and headed knockdowns to teammates.
They may try to set up shooting opportunities for themselves
by dribbling or performing a give-and-go with a teammate.
Attacking midfielders may also make runs into the opponents' penalty
area in order to shoot from another teammate's pass.
16/01/2018 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 47
48. Advanced Playmaker
Where a creative attacking midfielder, i.e. a advanced playmaker, is regularly
utilized,
◦ he is commonly the team's star player, and often wears the number 10 shirt.
A team is often allows their attacking midfielder to roam free and
create as the situation demands.
Known as
◦ the "fantasista" or "trequartista" in Italy,
◦ in Brazil, the offensive playmaker is known as the "meia atacante,“
◦ in Argentina and Uruguay, it is known as the "enganche."
16/01/2018 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 48
49. Cristiano Ronaldo
– (Portugal, Real Madrid)
Ronaldo's favored position is in wide
midfield, although he can also function
behind the striker or as a center forward.
One of the most eye-catching players in the
world game, Ronaldo's array of skills make
him worth the admission fee alone.
His step over is world renowned, and he
scores an abnormally high number of goals
for someone who does not regularly play as
an out-and-out striker.
16/01/2018 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 49
50. Middle
Management in
business is like
The Football
Midfielder
YAYA TOURE
(IVORY COAST & MANCHESTER CITY)
Watching the Manchester City
star slip through the gears as he
carries the ball through
midfield. The 2011, 2012 and
2013 African Footballer of the
Year has deceptive pace, is
tigerish in the tackle and scores
his fair share of goals.
16/01/2018 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 50
51. Organizations Have Flattened
And Now Run Lean,
Middle Managers
◦ play an increasingly important role.
They are charged with seeing that an
organization’s vision and strategy are executed.
And they’re doing so with far fewer resources
than they were once able to tap.
16/01/2018 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 51
52. Middle Managers
being increasingly asked to make critical
decisions that would in the past have been
made higher up in the organization or later
in a manager’s career.
This has led to an accelerated need to
develop the leadership skills of middle
managers.
16/01/2018 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 52
55. Few Factors Contribute More To Business
Success Than Culture
the system of values, beliefs, and behaviors that shape
how real work gets done within an organization.
Its close connection to performance is not lost on HR
and business executives:
◦87% of survey respondents say that culture is important,
◦54% rate it as very important,
◦9 percentage points more than last year.
16/01/2018 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 55
56. What Culture Does
Culture brings together the implicit and explicit reward
systems that define how an organization works in practice,
no matter what an organizational chart, business strategy,
or corporate mission statement may say.
A staggering number of companies—over 50% in this
year’s survey—are currently attempting to change their
culture in response to shifting talent markets and
increased competition.
16/01/2018 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 56
59. THE CRITICAL FUNCTIONS for
MIDDLE MANAGERS:

Alignment of
Vision & Goals

2. Resource
Allocation

3. People
Development

16/01/2018 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 59
60. 1. STRATEGIC
ALIGNMENT OF
VISION AND
GOALS:
The job of a middle manager
is to develop division or
region objectives that align
with the company vision and
goals.
Then, the mid-level manager
communicates goals,
strategies, tactics and
policies with front-line
managers.
16/01/2018 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 60
61. 2. RESOURCE
ALLOCATION:
Middle managers direct the
resources for training and
development, materials, supplies
and technology.
They make policy decisions on
staffing business units.
They also establish what
equipment, materials and
supplies are needed in each
business unit to achieve optimum
production or results.
16/01/2018 WWW.ABOVEORBEYONDJM.COM 61
62. 3. PEOPLE
DEVELOPMENT:
Middle managers develop and
train employees in the organisation
for better functioning and for filling
up vacancies that may arise in
future.
Most importantly, middle managers
develop front-line managers.
They coach store or unit managers
to motivate and lead front-line
sales, service or production teams.

67. 7. Dedicated change
management resources and
funding
S Projects with dedicated change management resources and
funding are more likely to finish on schedule and to be
completed on budget.
S It is therefore wise to invest in appropriate funding and
resources for executing change management plans.
S External change agents/specialists can lead, train and
support executives, middle managers and internal change
teams in the tools and techniques to manage the people side
of change.
1/16/2018 www.ABOVEorBEYONDjm.COM67
68. Risks of not effectively
managing the people side of
change
S When we don’t manage the people side of change effectively,
S we can expect lower productivity, active and passive resistance,
negative word of mouth, loss of valued employees and lower
utilisation or incorrect usage of new processes, systems and
tools.
S People will find workarounds and ultimately revert to the old
way of doing things.
S To prevent this from happening you should
carefully take the people-side factors into
account.1/16/2018 www.ABOVEorBEYONDjm.COM68

Despite the Best Efforts
S Of intelligent, well-
educated, and experienced
senior managers
S Change programs are more
likely to fail than succeed

On the Contrary

Every Company Needs Management
SBut management can also destroy change
SSo take a look at your company’s change
efforts
SHave you been trying to manage change
SOr lead it?
1/16/2018
151. www.AboveorBeyondJM.com152
1. Too Much Complacency
SAn organization that is
complacent won't be able
to muster the effort and
commitment needed to
successfully create
change
1/16/2018
152. www.AboveorBeyondJM.com153
2. No Powerful Guiding Coalition
SChange requires a coalition
of people who, though
position, expertise,
reputations, and
relationships, have the
power to make a change
1/16/2018
153. www.AboveorBeyondJM.com154
3. No Vision
S Without vision, change efforts
dissolve into a list of confusing,
incompatible, and time-
consuming projects going in
different directions
S Or nowhere at all
1/16/2018
154. www.AboveorBeyondJM.com155
4. No Communication of the Vision
SMajor change often requires
people to make short-term
sacrifices
SBut people won't make those
sacrifices unless they
understand why they are
1/16/2018
155. www.AboveorBeyondJM.com156
5. Obstacles That Block the New
Vision
SMajor change demands
action from a large number
of people
SMany initiatives fail because
obstacles are placed in the
path of these people
1/16/2018
157. www.AboveorBeyondJM.com158
6. No Short Term Wins
S Complex efforts to change strategies or restructure
businesses lose momentum if there are no short-
term goals to meet and celebrate
S Without short-term wins, people give up-or join the
resistance
1/16/2018
158. www.AboveorBeyondJM.com159
7. Victory Declared Too Soon
SAfter working hard on a
change program, people
can be tempted to declare
victory with the first major
performance improvement
1/16/2018
160. www.AboveorBeyondJM.com161
8. No Deep Rooted Change in the
Corporate Culture
SChange sticks when it
becomes "the way we do
things around here"
SIf change isn't ingrained in
the culture, it won’t survive
in long run1/16/2018
162. www.AboveorBeyondJM.com163
Even With All of These Efforts
S Killing the old culture is difficult to accomplish
S Shared values are often shaped by years of
experience
S It takes years of different kind of experience to
institutionalize any change
1/16/2018
163. www.AboveorBeyondJM.com164
Culture Comes Last
S Only by first doing the change
S Convincing people to try new practices and then producing
results
S Can you hope to anchor new attitudes and habits into
culture
