Driving Strategy and Culture Through Leaders
The press for new products, the quest for new markets, the need for new strategies and the drive for new organisation structure represent a permanent part of the business landscape. The subject of the strategic change management taking place in organisations on a continuous basis.
We ensure that your strategic change initiatives are successful and we do so by focusing on your Change Leaders.
After all, leaders are the ones who need to define and articulate the strategies. They are the ones who need to remove the obstacles that are blocking the execution and implementation. They are the ones who need to cross boundaries to align resources and create change wherever needed. By developing your leaders along the way, our strategic change implementation solutions ensure that your leaders will be ready at all time.
Our creative approach typically involves several elements, including:
- Partnering and Planning
We partner with your team of leaders to help create the necessary clarity. The array of proven tools and processes we employ to this end include:
- Strategic Change Audits that help crystallize the organisation’s “Agenda for Change”
- Change Implementation Tools that help bridge the current state of the organisation to the desired future state
- Structured Workshops that help catalyze and fine tune vision, values, and operating principles
The net result: a team of leaders fully aligned, committed, and prepared to drive the organisation’s strategic change.
- Accelerating Strategic Change
We also help you convert your strategic plan into reality and results.
Here again, the focus is on using leaders as the catalyst to drive strategic change. We provide a defined strategic alignment process as well as various methods (Embracing Future Workshops, change engagement events, etc.) in support of that process. As such, the leaders are able to engage the entire organisation in learning and transition around the strategic agenda. At the same time, the leaders can mobilise people throughout the organisation in committing to the change agenda.
Drive the type of strategic alignment that leads to real strategic change-and superior business results
- Integrating Leadership Development
Even the best-laid plan for strategic change can go awry if your leaders and managers lack the specific skills and capabilities required to drive that plan. The development of your leaders impacts on every phase of the process and dictates the ultimate success of the initiative.
For this reason, at the same time that we are helping you design and implement the strategic change, we are also working with you to identify, assess and develop the unique leadership capabilities required to drive the strategic agenda.
All of this helps ensure the success of the strategic change initiative as well as the next one zooming down the road.
