We have all been there… We’ve developed our project plan or log frame – we’ve sought key stakeholder input and we have started implementing our Business Transformation; but somehow we are not getting the co-operation we need to make things happen.

You ask did I not engage people sufficiently? Is it my company culture blocking this?

Did I fail to adequately outline – What’s In it for Them? Is my Business Transformation project too ambitious?

  • Recognise when theory/Best Practice is not working and the need to be flexible and re-adjust your business transformation strategy/plan to fit the context (‘Best fit’) of your own company culture
  • Find the Champions that will work with you to drive things forward in the culture(you only need a core nucleus);
  • What’s the Carrot for them to take the risk and defy the status quo in favour of your Business Transformation?
  • Understand the context of your company culture, and work around it – e.g. know when, where and with whom to test ideas or launch a strategy etc.
  • Create centres of excellence to encourage your business transformation
