It’s a holiday week in the US so, for this blog post, here’s a gift: a downloadable checklist to help you think through your next change effort. Happy holidays!
So much needs to be done when planning a change—and that’s just the work around creating the new product, process, or solution. Organizations that wish to be successful must deal with the human aspects of change leadership and help people make the transition from the old to the new. Change leaders need to answer key questions in each phase before moving on to the next. Use this simple checklist to see if you’ve answered the important questions about your next change initiative.
One clarification: It might sound as if this checklist is for people at the top who are imposing a change on the rest of the organization. Not so! It’s intended to be used by a cross-level, cross-functional steering committee that’s charged with planning and implementing the change within the organization.
