Change Management is the most difficult management task to do

Change is happening all around us, but in practice it’s the most difficult management task to do. This is partly because change management adds many other dimensions and complexity to the already difficult daily life of a manager: another is that most managers are simply not trained or taught how to implement change.  Very often it's because the very pre-conditions for change simply don’t exist in the organisation. 

As a consequence it's often assessed that 70 % of Change Management programmes or initiatives fail. ,Usually the root cause forfailire is beacuse change leaders fail to work methodically through the necessary steps or ensure that the basic pre-conditions exist before starting out.  Frost & Sullivan are featuring in their latest Growth, Innovation & Leadership University newsletter a simple diagnostic developed by us which can help those who are thinking about or who are about to embark on a major Change Management initiative by determining whether the pre-conditions for change exist.  You can download it from the Frost & Sullivan site here or from our Knowledge Base here
