Why Change Management Coaching is the third leg of your stool

And why your change management program will fall over without it

After several years of consulting and training in business process modelling and change management, we've realised that there's a third leg that's missing.

Coaching of senior managers in new ways to see the changes going on in their organisations.

Once you become a People and Process coaching client, you can expect...

Help to understand where you are now. To do so we will create a foundation for understanding your current situation. There are three elements.

• You need to understand where your organisation and individual department is in its development lifecycle: pioneering, differentiation, integration or associative. Or in the crises in between these.
• You need to understand your value model: stream, shop or network.
• You need to understand your value discipline: operational excellence, product leadership, customer intimacy.

Together, these will ensure that you have a comprehensive understanding of your current situation: which value discipline you are pursuing, which model you are using to pursue it and which phase of development your organisation is in.

Once understood, the value discipline and model do (should) not change. This is your "business". If these are in flux, the whole business is at risk. The only thing that changes is where your organisation is in its development lifecycle.

This is the foundation.

Next we move onto establishing that same understanding into the organisation.

The main steps along that path are...

Check that the current value model and value discipline is the correct one for your business. If not, the whole business is at risk.

Identify the steps to implement change in their organisation based on the Strategic U-turn.

Implement strategies for carrying your organisation through the Strategic U-turn.

Set up near-term and longer-term Action Plans for each of the seven steps of the Strategic U-turn.

Establish a structure of accountability so that you will follow-through on their action items.

Finally, track and measure your progress and results. Make course corrections along the way.
