Businesses hoping to survive over the long term will periodically have to remake themselves into better competitors through a transformation effort that is designed to create a sense of urgency, to coalesce around a vision forward, and to translate the vision into phased action.
Change is a constant in today’s business climate, and some would argue that dealing with change should be part of the skill set of corporate leaders, but sometimes major strategic business changes require the assistance of an external expert specifically trained and experienced in dealing with change. That expert can provide help with identifying the cultural and process areas that need to change, looking for short-term wins, communicating the progress and success, and establishing a new norm in order to sustain the transformation after it has been designed, implemented, and measured.
Change management is part of the Strategy Integration dimension in the Align quadrant of the CorpU 12 Dimensions of Learning Excellence.
