How do we understand 

CHANGE MANAGEMENT?


>> an inclusive Transformation Method! 

The expression Change Management is nowadays very much used for the  mobilization of employees, Zadkiel stands for a holistic concept, covering Strategy, Culture, Structure and Customer. Our Project Management involves all Business functions to tackle Changes, such as: 

  • Transformation, 
  • Strategic Re-design, 
  • Re-Organization & Organizational Design
  • Kaizen, Continuous Improvement & Lean (& Six Sigma), learning Organization
  • Restructuring, 
  • Out- & In-Sourcing, 
  • M&A Initiatives & 
  • Integration Management.

CHANGE is like surfing. 

No planning or forecast will cover surprisingly stormy waters, changing conditions & unforeseeable backwashes! Agility, ad-hoc interventions and situative reactions during a CHANGE are a "must" and make you able to adapt to the change in the CHANGE. 
RIDE THE WAVE is the slogan! 
But all the agile concepts will and shall not replace a tailored and systemic Change Plan.

"RIDE THE WAVE" 

- the agile emergency kit -

Change Management is

People Leadership 

Especially the tough Change Processes like Office closures, mass reduction, sales of business units or facilities; all those changes demand all of you and your leadership skills. Its success but also smooth management crucial depend on a strong leader, whom people can trust and follow, despite of all the painful  "management decisions" to be rolled out. Leading people through change means also leading emotions. Therefore emotional maturity is a needed super power to master those changes.

Visionary Strategy

Change is the strategic masterclass, of initiating today, what is needed to "be" in some years ahead.
It is actually Business Development based on a more or less unpredictable scenario & a visionary future strategy with some risk potential.
The more transformative the change, the more elementary structures and work dimensions are touched, the bigger the difference to today's world has to be orchestrated. Vision & Strategy are absolutely necessary to have, be clear of their meaning and bring them to life by consistent communication. A powerful vision and clear picture of the future has an undeniable pull effect and magnetism, what can motivate people during the tough times of change.

Trust & Commitment

For Change you need trust in yourself, in the decisions you've done and/ or the Top Management, trust in your colleagues, in your capabilities and your as well as the organization“s skills. If you don't trust and believe in a good outcome for the company, the Change is already fated to fail. Your trust will be tested as well as your Change Plan, what means commitment is needed. Once the waters get choppy, your leadership is questioned, the change plan under discussion and resistance build up, commitment to the plan, to the company and into the business decisions done is important.
If you show insecurity, doubting the plan or decisions or not fully own the change and be committed, people will recognize the inconsistency and stop following you as a "role model".

Discipline & Craft

It does not sound very sexy but at the end of the day, hard work and discipline are deciding about success or fail. A solid "waterproofed" Change Plan, broken down into the last pieces of detail, logical, reasonable and worked out with different business functions and project members is key. But the best plan is just as good as your follow ups and re-checks. Constant monitoring, controlling, analysis, documentation are the same necessary as re-evaluate processes, work structures, collect and maintain data and facts. If you lose track of where you stand in your change process,  not working with the data and facts you got or rely on "hearing and saying" or "feelings" and in concrete feedback, you basically fly blind.

Multi-Change-Mix

Multiple Change Projects at the same time planned, initiated, implemented and rolled out is the new "business as usual". Nowadays we neither have the time for a long sustainability phase nor can we wait for all the adjusting transitions in large global companies. To not lose overview, reducing contra-productive impact of projects, limiting the overload of people and the organization, a strategic program planning with mixed tool is beneficial.

What is the BIG CHALLANGE in driving multiple Changes simultaneously?

  • sustainability & change controlling
  • re-freezing phase - the time of success 
  • overloaded organization (& staff)
  • people get tired of change with a risk of constant resistance
