Change Management
Vital for the survival and relevance of any organisation
At The Futures Group, we understand that change is an accelerating constant in today’s environment. The greatest challenge for you as a leader is to design the future to ensure your organisation or team is ahead of the curve, responding to the drivers of change rather than reacting.
Deciding the specifics about what change to pursue is a task all leaders must undertake regularly, and this can have substantial effect on business performance. Most organisations have regular strategic and operational planning embedded into the way they work and there often comes a point where there is a recognition that key changes are required to achieve or sustain high performance. Or change can be forced on an organisation or team due to some internal or external factors.
We help you to create a vision and clear rational for the change and future to enthuse staff and stakeholders.
The Futures Group Change Management Programme aligns to the highly regarded Prosci Change Management methodology and 3-Phase Process™ which is undertaken by our Prosci certified consultants.
Prosci 3-Phase Process
In Phase 1 we work with the senior managers who are responsible for the change initiatives to prepare a Change Management Strategy that defines the approach to leading the Change.
In Phase 2 we assist in the preparation of a Change Management Plan with the individuals who will have responsibilities for the planning and implementation of the Change that aligns to the Prosci Change Triangle. The Change Management Strategy establishes the Leadership / Sponsorship and in the Change, Management Planning we work with the teams responsible for the project management side of the change and the change itself. Using the Prosci Change Management methodology, our Prosci certified consultants develop the Change Management Strategy to define success, impacts, and approach and create a Change Management Plan, to act, track performance, and adapt actions.
In Phase 3 we can assist in evaluating the actual changes achieved against the Change Management Plan to assess if staff have been provided with the Knowledge and Ability to integrate the changes expected into how they work. We can also assess the Reinforcement of the Change to ascertain if previous practices are still being undertaken putting the required changes at risk long-term. This is a critical phase as leaders can assume that all staff have integrated the change and not have visibility of perspectives and actions that could undermine the intended benefits and return on investment.
We utilise the Prosci ADKAR Model that tracks and analyses how individuals, teams and the whole organisation are moving through the five elements of change (Awareness, Desire, Knowledge, Ability and Reinforcement). This enables your leaders to work proactively monitoring change to ensure that the performance and behaviour changes required are visible and proactively managed.
We work to understand the baseline within the organisation related to people, performance and processes and help you to monitor key data on staff such as:
Retention;
Recruitment;
Exit survey results;
Absenteeism;
Use of employee assistance programs, and other indicators.
This data helps leaders to monitor and adjust to ensure the wellbeing, engagement, and performance of staff.
Throughout the three phases we can provide:
Coaching to Change Leaders;
Tailored Change programs for leaders and staff;
Change Resistance coaching and planning
Prepare tailored online change management training build core competencies
Guidance and recommendations for additional training to ensure alignment with the requirements under the WHS Act 2020, the WA Code of Practice for Psychosocial risks, and a psychologically safe workplace which are all integral for achieving change success.
