CHANGE READINESS ASSESSMENTS

The change readiness assessment service is for business initiatives that are just starting up or are in-process, and it's especially appropriate for programs that have encountered obstacles or are struggling. The assessment helps your project team address key questions such as: "how effective is our change management strategy?", "is our organization ready?", or "what's the best way to engage our stakeholders?" The assessment process helps you determine the right next steps and a course of action.

Outcome
Insight into the organizational change implications and impact to employees of a strategic initiative or business transformation program; recommendations for how to proceed with an organizational change strategy

Targeted To
Sponsors and program managers; executives responsible for the results of a strategic initiative or business transformation program; HR or IT business partners

Approach
The assessment process requires on-the-ground data-gathering and interviews with the sponsors, program team members, and representatives from key stakeholder segments, including from the impacted business areas. The approach is customized for each client's specific situation and typically takes 2-4 weeks to complete, depending on the complexity of the business initiative.

Timing
While change readiness assessment can be conducted at any point during the lifecycle of the business initiative, a best practice is to conduct the assessment during the program start-up phase or during the program design phase.
