Influence Model for Change (PowerPoint PPT)

DESCRIPTION

Transformation initiatives aren’t easy to manage. In fact, data suggests most Transformation efforts globally to have ended up in failure. Organizations tend to execute large-scale Change initiatives devoid of any real focus on the human element—building their people’s faith and commitment, bolstering it, and minimizing any resistance to Change. These priorities seem simple but are most likely to be missed out on during the hue and cry of the Transformation endeavor.

This presentation talks about the "Influence Model" for Change Management and its 4 building blocks. These 4 building blocks are actually the key actions that Transformation programs should focus on to alter the mindsets and behaviors of the workforce, in order to induce real Change. Whereas organizational culture largely encompasses employees' mindsets, the Influence Model focuses on changing the behaviors across the board.

The Influence Model has been endorsed by both academic research and practical experience. The 4 key actions of the Influence Model are derived from formal organizational mechanisms and work practices that work best for Transformation:

1. Understanding
2. Reinforcement
3. Skills for Change
4. Role Modeling

The slide deck also includes some slide templates for you to use in your own business presentations.

The Influence Model for Change also delves into the psychological underpinnings of change, emphasizing the importance of understanding and reinforcement. The model highlights how cognitive biases, such as the "false consensus effect" and the "curse of knowledge," can impede effective communication and alignment within the organization. By addressing these biases, leaders can better convey the necessity for change and foster a shared vision.

The presentation further explores the role of reinforcement, drawing on principles from Pavlov and Skinner to illustrate how consistent and positive reinforcement can drive desired behaviors. It underscores the need for fair and predictable reinforcement strategies to maintain motivation and engagement. This comprehensive approach ensures that change is not only implemented, but also sustained, making it a valuable resource for any executive leading a transformation initiative.
