How Using Proven Techniques Can Make The Difference In Your Company And Your Career
Chances are you and your organization are in the midst of profound change – or you anticipate you will be very soon. The situation business organizations face is that – given competitive pressure, customer expectations, regulation, supply logistics, and technology breakthroughs – change is no longer the exception. Today, change is now the Rule.
And if change is now the rule, then we need to be able to change effectively to survive and prosper!
Surprisingly, as much as 80% of change projects manage to meet expectations.
This includes technology implementations, quality projects like six sigma, process improvement projects like re-engineering or lean manufacturing, acquisition projects, customer relationship management systems, and on and on.
Only 20% of these change initiatives succeed. So today’s business reality is: Change is everywhere, yet few people and few organizations handle change well.
But don’t give up hope.
Although not widely practiced, the the secret to implementing organizational change is very well understood. And by applying best practices in your own companies you can enhance the odds in your favor significantly. Think of what a powerful weapon this can be. Even moderate levels of success can provide immense power in the marketplace for you and the company you work for.
Why don’t more companies use this knowledge? They don’t think all the fuss is necessary; most people do not realize how difficult implementing change can be, and when they learn what it takes, they immediately think that they can shortcut the process.
Well, if it’s easy, why do so many people fail at it?
Don’t be fooled. Learn the systematic approach to implementing strategic change by applying best practices, and you and your organization can beat the odds and rise to the top.
