Change Champions are essential in helping build the right mindset, skills and momentum during changes in the organisations. Having a dedicated team of Change Champions can contribute to change project success.
Organisations manage change constantly, but what makes change work? In a study conducted by IBM called Making Change Work, organisations that outperforms are capable of changing quickly and successfully. In a list identified as key barriers to change, successful organisations are adept in managing the top few barriers - all of which are people oriented.
Turns out people oriented factors are hardest to get right.
Change Champions play the crucial role in managing people oriented factors. They help align communication and clarify the complexities of change. Having them at different levels and functions help cascade the different messages needed for change. They also help inspire the varied stakeholders to act.
