The 6 Drivers of Organisational Change

Scott Anthony posted an interesting set of six drivers of organisational change, based on a discussion panel on change that I found interesting and worth sharing. The six drivers of change identified by the panel are:

1. The need for a crisis or some kind of “burning platform” to motivate transformational change
2. A clear vision and strategy … that allows room for iteration
3. A recognition that transformation is a multi-year journey
4. A need to put the customer or consumer in the center of the transformation equation
5. The critical importance of demonstrating to skeptics that different actions can lead to different results
6. The need to over-communicate to employees, customers, stakeholders, and shareholders

These are great insights into organisational change, which typically is a tough leadership challenge with a high failure rate. Good points to include in your change checklist….!
