Lessons learned.

Dear people,

I think after the whole process being undertaken and to be made as part of the ongoing change management program, I felt that organization everywhere must recognize that the pace of change is accelerating, and that survival depends, in large part, on being able to successfully navigate change.

After getting myself into the action of change management program, I believe that with the proper and well planned transformation program, we would be able to achieve the desired holistic change program in our BU. The most general lesson to be learned from is that the change process goes through a series of phases that provides a valuable insights and appreciation of what it takes to manage change effectively. Of course, the actual success of the change program in my BU has yet to achieve the desired results but the task-force has been given new perspectives on how to manage and develop a potent change program.

In summary, here are the most important lessons gathered:-

1) The importance to recognise and deal effectively with the strategic pressure points in a proactive way;
2) Listen and take stock of stakeholders’ concerns;
3) Be clear about the desired result on improvements;
4) Assess readiness to change and techniques to get “buy-ins”;
5) Adopt compatible strategies in dealing with change; and
6) Assist BU to recover, rebound and learn from change.

The other good news is that there is an increasing awareness of the value structured change management brings to my BU. By managing the people side of change, organisations are well aware that "one size fits all" may only work in the garment industry, but it is not a viable model for organizational change management.

Until then, have a wonderful day and do accept change with an open mind..

Cheers...
