1. What are the consequences of NOT having a solid change strategy and process?
If a company does not have a change management strategy then the future and growth of the company lurks in darkness. Without a change strategy, the company and its process will become stagnant (Abazi and Kërçini 2013). The growth of a company is achieved to greater extent with changes that are incorporated because of the fact that the world is moving fast and it is essential for any company to get hold of the global changes and work accordingly. Lacking such an approach will lead to a barrier towards the success of the company as the team members won’t be aligned to the needs arising in the market.
1. What are 4 external obstacles to change? List and describe.
The 4 external obstacles to change are mentioned below-
1. Fear failure- Change is all about accepting changes and unless a organization accepts it, they cannot know of the results. The fear lies in being a failure after accepting changes
2. Cultural stigma- The culture of a location at times binds the way a company conducts its processes (Bracke, Delaruelle and Verhaeghe 2019). The working hours of the place and timings may bind the organization from trying new things out and stop growth.
3. Communication breach- Unless there is a seamless communication with the market, an organization cannot know the needs and cater accordingly.
4. Complexity- If a change is huge then the sheer scale can be a barrier.
1. What are 3 proactive steps you can apply to provide leadership to implement change?
The 3 proactive steps to lead a change are mentioned below-
1. Identify the need of the market and then plan the change. Unless a company meets the demands of the customer by raking in the changes that are a must, it cannot be successful.
2. The change should be lead from front. Leaders should be the advocates of change so as to pursue people into believing that there is a need for such change and it is beneficial (Hays 2016).
3. Change needs to be managed with these 4 aspects- Accountability, vision alignment, responsibility and authority.
1. Why do you need to assign resources to any change?
It is essential to assign resources because of the fact that with proper resources the change can be directed properly (Stern, George and Tindal, International Business Machines Corp 2016). For a change to be implemented it needs workforce and tools and without it, the goal can never be achieved. Assigning resources make sure that the work is done in a certain amount of time and also the responsibility is shared. It also allows keeping a track of the finances put in the change. With proper resources, there are lesser chances for any task to be overlooked.
1. To implement a change management strategy what should you do?
For better implementation it is always essential to be able to communicate the change and entire process clearly to the target audience. Simple language is the key to clean communication and better implementation as it enables the people to understand and comprehend the message better. For far-fetched results, it is recommended that actions are rewarded and encouraged. It will motivate others to work towards the change efficiently. It is essential to note the obstacles and then remove them one each at a time for garnering faster positive results in the implementation process. The vision needs to be clear and put forward in-front...
