Our process

Stakeholder Influence & Engagement

Using practical strategies and simple methodologies to complete stakeholder matrix.
A variety of engagement and communication channels and strategies are used to keep the stakeholders updated and engaged throughout the change process.

Change Impact Management

We conduct a change impact assessment with a sample of the audience impacted by the change. This helps to clearly define and quantify how the audience is affected as they move from current to the future state and provides us with insights so that the correct approach is used to ensure success.

Knowledge Transfer (Training)

Training equips employees with the tools, knowledge and skills to perform their jobs in the “new” environment. We have a variety of formats to deliver the training, from digital solutions to face-to-face sessions with immersive experiences. The latter collects user data and identifies gaps and successes to that those struggling can be further supported.

Communication

We use a variety of mediums and channels to communicate, clearly and timeously which helps to keep the impacted audience and stakeholders engaged. It is also a clear message to employees that management are invested in the change and in their teams.

Adoption

Our adoption process  focuses on What, How, Why and Who needed to embed the ‘change’ into the organisation. We use the adoption curve together with the stakeholder matrix to track and amend the journey as we work towards success.
