This PPT slide, part of the 190-slide Change Management - Methodology, Toolkit, and Templates PowerPoint presentation, presents a visual representation of the change management process, emphasizing the complexities involved in implementing change within an organization. It outlines a timeline that spans from the start of the program to the sustain phase, with key phases labeled as "Build Foundation," "Deploy," and "Sustain."
The performance metric is plotted against time, illustrating a typical trajectory during a change initiative. Initially, performance dips as the organization enters the "valley of despair" around the go-live phase. This dip signifies the challenges and disruptions that often accompany the deployment of new systems or processes. The graph indicates that without a structured approach to organizational change, outcomes can become unpredictable, leading to further complications.
Key points marked as A, B, C, and D highlight critical moments in the change process. Point A focuses on minimizing the duration of negative impacts, while point B addresses the depth of those impacts. Points C and D suggest the importance of accelerating the time to competence and achieving new productivity levels, ultimately leading to sustained engagement.
The slide stresses that managing change effectively throughout its lifecycle is essential for achieving desired outcomes. It implies that a structured approach can maximize positive results, while a lack of organization in the change process can lead to adverse effects. This visual tool serves as a guide for executives to understand the dynamics of change management and the importance of strategic planning in navigating these challenges.
