Change Realisation
The Business Need
In today's turbulent world it seems as if the tempo of change ratchets up on an almost daily basis. Add to that the broad scope of business operations impacted, the complexity of the systems involved, and the need to achieve more with less. It becomes clear that managers are increasingly confronted with jumbo-sized challenges.
Factor in the additional scrutiny from regulatory and compliance agencies as well as the higher expectations of customers, shareholders, management, and staff alike and it becomes clear that falling back on tried and trusted approaches is not an option if change is to contribute to effective delivery of business results.
The Solution
No two organisations are identical in the way they deliver value and equally they will undertake their change initiatives within markedly different business contexts. There is therefore no single 'vanilla flavour' approach to change that works for every business in all circumstances.
Instead, a highly customised approach must be adopted to each change scenario based on an objective understanding of:
- what are the factors that are driving change
- what must be changed by whom and how fast
- what the motivation is for stakeholders to change
- the benefits of change to the business (and all participants)
Our Approach
Fullstream's "3xD" approach to change management provides an effective basis for undertaking any initiative with a significant change requirement.
Diagnosis
The basis of any change programme determines the specific need and context for change within the firm and identifies those factors essential for successful change to be achieved.
Design
Change programmes are developed from Fullstream's extensive range of tools, techniques and experience with the intention of achieving the maximum result, at an appropriate pace, with the minimum risk to the firm.
Delivery
Fullstream's strategists/facilitators track every aspect of implementation across the various levels of the organisation.
The Benefits
With unpredictability rapidly becoming the norm in business rather than the exception a Change Realisation approach produces a number of hard deliverables:
- Enables changes to stick: creates sustainable change which is not eroded, rolled-back or diluted over time.
- Ensures cost effectiveness of change through precision targeting of change interventions rather than one-size-fits-all.
- Minimises people and productivity impact: creates the ability within the firm to adapt to continuous change thereafter.
- Reduces organisational risk and vulnerability in uncertain times.
