A growing organization must invest on knowledge. If you want the business to prosper, you need to upgrade the skills and competencies of your people to meet the demands of the competition. It is in your people's developing knowledge that you will find fresh juices to be used in managing the business. If you won't invest on knowledge, then don't expect to progress.
"When the rate of change outside exceeds the rate of change inside, the end is in sight."
When Jack Welch quoted this statement, he is referring to having a balance between the external and the internal factors of changes. A balance will enable the change to be realized with lesser friction. Change, whether simple or complex causes friction to the person, environment, and system that need to undergo this process. No change is easy. It is the most overwhelming act to do. Yet, we all need to embrace this because it is with change that we get to progress.
You need to prepare first before going into the process. While it is inevitable, it is something that can be planned and sometimes can be delayed until you see that all aspects are ready to track a rocky and long journey. It is only you who can detect the level of readiness to change. Forcing will just put all efforts into waste.
Sometimes too, during the process, there will be roadblocks that will signal you to back-off. Back-off if you must. Having a temporary retreat will give more room to prepare and continue the journey towards change. The road to change can be slippery, the challenges can be too big to handle, if that time comes, there is no better thing to do but to stop for a while; if you don't, then that's the end of it all.
The rate of change varies from person to person, business to business, or systems to systems. You must never compare the rate of change you need to undergo to the rate of change others are traversing. Comparing is just a waste of time. Instead, you must focus on the change you need to traverse and be ready for whatever may happen along the way.
Five Activities Contributing to Effective Change Management
Below are the five activities that will help you effectively implement change.
1. Motivating Change
2. Creating Vision of Change
3. Developing Political Support
4. Managing the Transition of Change
5. Sustaining Momentum
The employees in the organization will be responsible for actualizing the change. They will be charged with the responsibility of putting into motion the laid down change processes. To this end, it is important that the employees in the organization be able to bring the change to life.
They have to have all the necessary qualifications and they have to have the skill and intellectual level required to make the change a reality. To make this possible, all the human resource processes in the organization including rewarding, measuring, training and recruiting are restructured to ensure that they drive new behaviors that support the new business vision.
Thank you for your attention.
