httpslidepdfcomreaderfullchange-management-the-systems-and-tool-for-managing-change 47
Many managers assume that if they communicate clearly with their employees their job is done However there are many reasons why employees may not hear or understand what their managers are saying the first time around In fact you mayhave heard that messages need to be repeated 6 to 7 times before they are
cemented into the minds of employees That is because each employeersquos readinessto hear depends on many factors Effective communicators carefully consider threecomponents the audience what is said and when it is said
For example the first step in managing change is building awareness around theneed for change and creating a desire among employees Therefore initialcommunications are typically designed to create awareness around the businessreasons for change and the risk of not changing Likewise at each step in theprocess communications should be designed to share the right messages at the righttime
Communication planning therefore begins with a careful analysis of the audienceskey messages and the timing for those messages The change management team or project leaders must design a communication plan that addresses the needs of front-line employees supervisors and executives Each audience has particular needs for information based on their role in the implementation of the change
Coaching and manager training for change management
Supervisors will play a key role in managing change Ultimately the direct supervisor has more influence over an employeersquos motivation to change than any other personat work Unfortunately supervisors as a group can be the most difficult to convince of the need for change and can be a source of resistance It is vital for the changemanagement team and executive sponsors to gain the support of supervisors and tobuild change leadership Individual change management activities should be used tohelp these supervisors through the change process
Once managers and supervisors are on board the change management team mustprepare a coaching strategy They will need to provide training for supervisorsincluding how to use individual change management tools with their employees
Training and training development
Training is the cornerstone for building knowledge about the change and the requiredskills Project team members will develop training requirements based on the skillsknowledge and behaviors necessary to implement the change These trainingrequirements will be the starting point for the training group or the project team todevelop training programs

key business leaders carry out these plans Sponsorship should be viewed as themost important success factor Avoid confusing the notion of sponsorship withsupport The CEO of the company may support your project but that is not the sameas sponsoring your initiative

Resistance management
Resistance from employees and managers is normal Persistent resistance howevercan threaten a project The change management team needs to identify understandand manage resistance throughout the organization Resistance management is theprocesses and tools used by managers and executives with the support of the projectteam to manage employee resistance

Employee involvement is a necessary and integral part of managing changeManaging change is not a one way street Feedback from employees is a keyelement of the change management process Analysis and corrective action basedon this feedback provides a robust cycle for implementing change
Celebrating and recognizing success
Early successes and long-term wins must be recognized and celebrated Individualand group recognition is also a necessary component of change management inorder to cement and reinforce the change in the organization
The final step in the change management process is the after-action review It is atthis point that you can stand back from the entire program evaluate successes andfailures and identify process changes for the next project This is part of the ongoingcontinuous improvement of change management for your organization and ultimatelyleads to change competency
