Organizational Shift

Change and Transition Coachcast Series




Is your organization experiencing a big shift, or getting ready to? In this turbulent economic climate, many organizations are having change thrust upon them - while others are choosing to make bold changes to address new customer needs or take advantage of opportunities.
Here are seven things to think about...

  • Change is not necessarily difficult, or something that people resist.
  • What trips up most people, and organizational change effort, is not change but transition.
  • Transition requires new learning and new patterns of behavior.
  • Transition requires emotional regrouping.
  • Transitions typically take us away from a sense of routine into other states of ending, abeyance, or starting.
  • Transition requires large energy and attention expenditures - loss of productivity is practically inevitable.
  • Leaders and managers do well to give as much emphasis to planning how to manage transitions as they do to what change to make.

"Change" is different from "transition," and leaders ignore transition at their peril. This episode lays the groundwork for a new coachcast series on leading change and managing transition.
