Organisational Change | Change Management
Quick Reference: Organisational Change
Innovative Management & Learning has been involved in a wide variety of major organisational change
projects.
Fundamental to successful organisational change is the need to minimise the negative impact of change. The reality is that any change encounters resistance. This
resistance is most strongly felt by those directly involved in managing the process.
Change sponsors and senior managers , because they are accountable, are inevitably seen by the rest of the
organisation as the champions of the change and therefore bear the brunt of the resistance to change.
It is therefore important to anticipate some resistance to the process of change and to formulate a strategy
that will successfully manage it and minimise any negative impact.
Most organisations facing significant change anticipate a downturn before reaping the benefits of productivity
gains. Studies carried out by Harvard graduates concluded that organisations implementing significant
change experience productivity losses three times what they expected. This phenomenon is known
as the Murphy Curve.
Murphy’s Curve
Studies revealed that four key actions can minimise productivity losses:
1. Strategic Management of change
2. Effective planning prior to implementation
3. Staff involvement in planning and implementation
4. Ongoing fine tuning during the transition and implementation phase
The IM&L Change Management model has been designed to address all of these key issues.
