| As 2005 comes to a close, you may
be preparing for significant organizational change. Whether
it is new products, improved
processes, new job roles, or entire transformational programs - your changes will impact
people. This new resource from the Change Management Learning
Center, "Positioning to succeed in 2006", is designed to prepare you, your team, your sponsors and your organization
to start thinking, planning and taking action in the remainder of 2005 to position the
organization for success in 2006.
To get started:
- Browse the "Positioning to succeed" resource home page
to familiarize yourself with the big picture of this new resource.
- Complete the start-up worksheet
below - a printable copy is provided to use with your team.
- Submit additional topic ideas that would be useful
for your team (submit function is found below the worksheet).
- Stay tuned each week as a new topic from the "Positioning to succeed" resource will be highlighted.
As a simple exercise - think through the worksheet below. It is likely that your
organization is introducing many changes that require people to work differently - with
new processes, tools, systems, reporting structures and job roles. However, many project
teams fall into the trap of thinking that if they design a fantastic solution, then people
will get on board and support the change. Thinking
now about how people in your current and future changes will be affected will give you a
head start for the new year.
