Change Consultancy
This is the arena that Transition Partners thrives in, over the years
we have been fortunate to have had opportunity to work at just about every
level of change in organisations.
We know that Change is tough. We know that people resist change, especially
change imposed upon them, and we know that leadership, the right sort
of leadership, is critical to initiate and effect successful changes.
We also know that constant change is crucial to survival in the business
world and that companies today must have change skills as a core competency.
It's a tough arena and one where many initiatives fail to reach their
intended targets. So getting the ingredients right is absolutely vital
if you want effective change.
The challenges of change are almost always different.
However, we also know that there are several best practises
or ingredients that facilitate effective and lasting change. The key is
finding the right way of bringing these practises together to meet and
move through the change that you or your company wants or needs to make.
Part of our approach will be:-
-
To get as far inside the company as possible, understand what is
going on (or not as the case may be)
-
To work with the individuals involved to understand the key issues
and barriers.
-
Then we consider how to approach and design (or preferably to co-design)
and deliver an intervention that will make the critical difference.
This preparatory phase means asking questions, observing, challenging,
gathering and interpreting data that helps all parties understand
what is actually happening.
-
Only with this picture clear and agreed do we believe it timely to
move onto the what to change and how to go about
it part of the journey.
-
Change is almost always about people and we believe one of the secrets
to change is finding the right way to engage with people, to ensure
that we are truly communicating with people. Communicating not broadcasting!
Our Experience with Change:-
-
At organisational level we have been involved in and led large scale
major organisational changes, redefining the organisation, redesigning
the way work gets done and departments are organised.
-
We have worked with Corporate Boards, helping the members to be clear
on their Vision, Mission and Goals, then to create and finally implement
new strategies that deliver key goals. This involves the board leading
by example which often requires personal changes as well.
-
We have helped to both co-create and then to cascade major change
initiatives necessitating the need to understand and embrace corporate
values and to help people to both articulate and then to live the
changes in behaviour that those values entail.
-
At team levels we have worked with both single teams and also with
inter-team groups to help people better understand and improve the
ways in which they work together.
So, if you approaching a change in your organisation or you want to make
some personal changes in the way you do business, we'd be more than pleased
to hear from you.
Change can be messy, change can be confusing! Change is
often likened to being in a maze with a blindfold on.
We'll be happy to partner with you, help you to find the right route
through or around the maze and get you to where you need to be, ideally
better equipped to flourish in tomorrow's business environment.

Managing change is like teaching a herd of elephants to dance.
Not only do you have to teach them the steps and the moves
but when the music changes you have to be able to get them to change
the dance altogether and enable them to dance in time to
the waltz
the quickstep
the cha cha
...and keep in step!
