3. Stages of change 3 Why didn’t they ask me how I’d feel or what I wanted to do? What will the changes mean to me? What are the consequences of not changing? I may NOT! How could they do this to me? What choices can I make and what are the potential outcomes?

4. A professional approach to delicate transitions Change management emphasizes the people side of change. Specifically targets leadership as critical providers of change messages. When done well, people understand the strategic direction of the change. They feel engaged. Work collectively toward a common objective. They realize the benefits and deliver results to the organization. 4

Leadership engagement is vital Leaders drive overall change Specifically: Ensure local commitment of resources Help define the future process, identify how the future process will impact the business and individual roles and responsibilities Lead individual discussions addressing job/responsibility changes (if needed) Drive communication to all colleagues (set and manage expectations) Encourage and enable colleague preparation and training events Set expectations that drive colleagues to adapt new systems/processes
