My golden rule for Managing Change is: “Involve the right people. The ones doing the work.”
Effective change isn’t a top-down ruling, it’s a grass-roots effort.
Those on the front lines often hold invaluable insights into what works and what doesn’t. Their perspectives can make or break the success of a change initiative.
Actively engaging the right people early in the process isn’t just about consultation.
- it’s about collaboration.
- It’s about recognizing that they’re the true experts in their roles
- it’s about acknowledging the wisdom they bring to the table.
- By involving these team members early and often, you foster a sense of ownership and commitment. They become champions of the change, not just passive recipients.
This not only accelerates adoption but also ensures that the changes you introduce become an integral part of your organization’s fabric.
How do you involve your team in change management? What are some positive outcomes have you witnessed as a result?
