Self Development Activities
- When your People Leader shares information about wider business plans or changes, question them on the possible impact on your work.
- Think about why changes in the past have been successful or unsuccessful and identify why. Ask key people involved to share experiences and lessons learned.
- Be open to feedback from all sources and adjust key messages where appropriate.
- Celebrate small successes when implementing change.
- Communicate clearly that there is a clear and explicit rationale for change.
People Leader Activities
- Identify key people who can support and influence others during change, not necessarily People Leaders.
- Provide your team with the relevant information to manage change – encourage them to access training and offer feedback as the project progresses.
- Invest time to work with your front-line supervisors and People Leaders to ensure they understand and can support people through change. If help is needed, contact the Organisational Development team.
- Where necessary, plan and resource for any extra workload created by change.
- Encourage your team to develop formal strategies for managing and communicating change.
