Case Study

What types of change do we see in our industry?

23 The McKinsey study examined many project variables and in particular, the effect of an Organizational Change Management (OCM) program on a project’s ROI. The study showed the ROI was:

24 The 11 most unsuccessful companies in the McKinsey study had poor change management, which showed up as the following:

• 143 percent when an excellent OCM program was part of the initiative;

• Lack of commitment and follow through by senior executives;

• 35 percent when there was a poor OCM program or no program.

• Defective project management skills among middle managers;

What do those these results mean? A 143 percent ROI means that for every dollar spent on the project the company is gaining 43 cents . On the other hand, a 35 percent ROI means that for every dollar spent they are losing 65 cents .

• Lack of training of and confusion among frontline employees.

Is Change a Sinking Ship? . . . or a sunken treasure?

The 11 most successful companies in the study had excellent OCM programs:

• Senior and middle managers and frontline employees were all involved;

Partner with someone you have not worked with Discuss failed change initiatives you have witnessed What were reasons for the failure? What could have been done differently?

• Everyone’s responsibilities were clear;

• Reasons for the project were understood and accepted throughout the organization.

1. Define and understand your own reaction to change in order to compare it to the reactions of others. 2. Involve those people who will be affected by change in both the planning and implementation process. 3. Communicate the vision so others can understand and buy in to the change. 4. Share all possible information about change with the widest audience possible. When you think you have spread the word, start over. 5. Explain the impact of change on individuals more than on the organization. 6. Be honest about both the benefits and the challenges of change. 7. Ask for and listen to lots of advice in change situations. 8. Encourage people to talk about their feelings and what they believe they will lose as a result of the change. 9. Celebrate milestones and small wins in the process. 10. Be empathetic as situations change and how people are affected.

Spotting Lack of Accountability

54 4 Keys to Changing the Culture 1. Mirror mirror. Talk honestly. Face the truth. Enable people to see thata changehas to be made. (360 reviews are a great tool to see where you are at) 2. Create trust through transparency. Find ways to build a culture of trust so that peoplewill entertaintheplan for change. For example,share financialdata,good and bad, withinand across groups. 3. Invert the organizational pyramid. Makesupport functionsand executivesaccountableto the frontlineworkers, rather than the otherway around. 4. Recast Executive Management’s role. Transfer the ownershipof change from theoffice of the Executivestoemployees. Allow the employeesto ask as manyquestionsas CEO/EM answers.

53

• In all workplaces, there is a vast library of creative excuses. o I don’thaveenoughtime. o If onlywe hadadequatestaff (resources,etc.). o That’snotmy job. o The staff can’t be trusted/ are incompetent. o I don’tknowhow,anywaythebossdidn’tsay that.

 Instead of focusing on why it can’t be done or wasn’t done, turn your attention to “what else can we do?” .

55 3 Guiding Principles to Accountability Leadership

56

Accountability Best Practices

Long before leaders can develop plans for getting others to take on more responsibility and ownership for their work, they must set the foundation of accountability using these 3 guiding principles: 1. Clear and concise communications. A clear message helps people know what’s expected and how to make the right decisions. 2. Compelling consequences. Focus on consequences that produce positive outcomes, not consequences focused on punishing for doing something wrong. 3. Culture of accountability. Leaders set the tone for cultural norms. Mastering conversations that encourage accountability is how leaders exert a powerful influence on positive cultural change.

58

57

Leading Change: Accountability

Leading Change (Communication)

1-3 key takeaways from this section

Leadership Communication

59

60

• As a leader, everything you say and do takes on a greater meaning. • Your responsibility lies in using the power of your words and your actions to influence behaviors that bring about the right business results. • How you handle mistakes, blame, feedback and credit goes a long way to setting the stage for accountability. • Nothing is more important than consistently delivering your core message to employees.

10

12/9/2019

Building Trust

61

62 Every conversation you have either builds trust or chips it away.

• You build trust when you communicate your genuine interest in people and their needs. • While there are many factors that contribute to our perceptions of trustworthiness, here 3 key traits that you should focus on: 1. Character . Studiesconsistentlycitehonestyas the#1 attributeof effectivemanagers– consistentlydoing what theysay they’lldo.

2. Competence . Your managerialcompetencyshould not be measured by your technicalskills, but by your ability to understandand influence people. 3. Caring . The most neglectedtrait is theability to show you care. Employeeswant to feel theymatterand theirbosses actuallycare about them as people.  Only when these three traits are in place can employees reciprocate with trust.

Guiding Principles – Ask Yourself Clear Messages:

Everybody’s Different

Am I communicatingclearly, remindingmyselfandothersofourmission,valuesand strategy? Do I relate thebigpicture to realworld situations,peopleandbusiness realities? Am I connectingthedots to smalldaily tasksandgoals? Am I generouswith recognitionandpraise? Consequences: Do Ihavecompellingconsequences inplace thatencouragepeople touse their strengthsandcreativity? Do Idiscouragebehaviorsthatdistractwhileencouraging funand friendships?

• Everybody is motivated – just not by the same things. • Understand what is motivating your teams, so you can show them how things you want them to do are in their own best interest. • To do this, you need to have conversations and explore their needs.

Do Iencourageproblemsolving innewways? Do I letpeople comeupwith theirown ideas? Do I recognizeachievementspersonally?

Conversations:

Do Igive feedback inamanner that canbe received? Do I focusonbehaviorswithoutbeing judgmental? Do Iallowpeople the chancetoexpress themselveswithout interruptingthemwithmy solutions? Do Iact like I’mopen tohearingaboutmistakesandotheropinions? Domy conversationsbuild trust?

Discussion Question

In 2000,Reed Hastings, the founder of anew company called Netflix, flew to Dallas to propose a partnership to Blockbuster CEO JohnAntioco and his team. The idea was that Netflix would runBlockbuster’s brand online andAntioco’s firm would promote Netflix in its stores. Hastings got laughed out of the room.

Identify possible change strategies for each of the following business (what have they done to stay competitive?): • Walmart • McDonald’s • Starbucks • Google

Blockbuster went bankrupt in2010and Netflix isnow a$28billion dollar company, about ten times what Blockbuster was worth.

Today, Hastings iswidely hailed as agenius andAntioco is considered a fool.

• Put yourself in their shoes to help you to understand how they might react so that you can mitigate risks to your company and unnecessary stress on them.

Potential ‘change’ impact on employees

Impact on Mental Stress • A 2017 study by the American Psychological Association concluded that 55 percent of people who said they experienced organizational change at work reported feeling chronic stress, compared with 22 percent by people who didn't have organizational upheaval. • 35 percent said they felt physical symptoms from their stress at work, compared with only 8 percent having such symptoms when they weren't experiencing organizational changes at work. • There may be many causes for increased stress levels, including perceived injustices or unfairness, lack of timely communication by management or fear of future changes.

Loss of Loyalty and Increased Turnover • Many companies look to salaries and benefits as the first places to cut back when looking to make changes that involve cost-saving. When this happens, it is inevitable that some employees will leave the company to seek employment elsewhere. • The employees that remain, whether they stay voluntarily or because they could not find employment elsewhere, may become resentful. Motivation decreases, taking job performance along with it. Employees lose their company loyalty and may even become angry enough to purposefully sabotage the company.

Potential ‘change’ impact on employees

Potential ‘change’ impact on employees

Increased Time Away From Work • When organizational changes are announced, particularly when there is downsizing involved, employees generally divide into one of two groups: those who will attempt to control their fate and those who want to get out before the changes occur. The group taking control will usually dig in, increase their productivity, hit their deadlines and do everything they can to shine in front of their managers hoping they will sail through the changes with their job intact. • The remaining employees cope with the changes by avoiding them. You may see these employees taking longer lunch hours, coming in later and leaving earlier or simply not coming into the office at all. Whether they are looking for new jobs or simply avoiding the office, expect to see an increase in employee sick days while you carry out the organizational changes.

Life Changes Caused by Restructuring • Some organizational changes require major restructuring, resulting in sweeping life changes for a number of employees. Typical changes that negatively impact a portion of the employees are salary cuts, loss of benefits, downgrading in job position, job loss or relocation to another city, state or country. All of these can be devastating changes to employees, particularly those who are supporting families. • The best way to handle these changes while keeping the morale up of the remaining or unaffected employees is by communicating with all of the employees every step of the way and treating the affected employees with fairness and compassion.

Other Impacts of Organizational Change on Employees

The Impact of Change

• Change-related stress • Effect on attitudes • Employee cynicism • Trust in organization matters

Tips To Get Others To Buy In On Change

Get Others To Buy In On Change

John P. Kotter, a leading authority on change management, says, "People change what they do less because they are given analysis that shifts their thinking, than because they are shown a truth that influences their feelings ... behavior change happens in highly successful situations, mostly by speaking to people's feelings.”

"The best way to predict the future is to create it.“

Peter Drucker

In other words, change is more easily accepted when leaders try to reach people through both the head and the heart.

Tips To Get Others To Buy In On Change Communicate the change as a conversation: • Quantity: Give just enough information—not too much and not too little. Don't inundate people with a tsunami of data in the form of charts, graphs, analysis or reports. Most people won't read them. • Quality: Be genuine. Don't bamboozle people with embellished information presented as facts. They'll soon see through it. As Grice put it, "If I need sugar ... I do not expect you to hand me salt." • Relation: Be relevant. Connect what you say about the change to what is uppermost on everyone's mind; i.e., how will the change affect them personally and what will be expected of them? • Manner: Communicate what you say in the clearest, briefest and most logical manner to help people understand. Don't be vague, ambiguous or wordy, or you'll lose them.

Tips To Get Others To Buy In On Change

• Convincing others that change is essential is one of a leader's most challenging tasks. • The biggest speed bumps on the road to that future, however, are communicating the change and getting the buy-in from all those affected by the change. • Follow these best practices to get people's buy-in.

Tips To Get Others To Buy In On Change

Tips To Get Others To Buy In On Change

Address the emotions in the room: • You can increase your awareness of people's reactions to change by looking at the emotions that take place when people have to cope with change. The stages in change include shock and denial, anger and depression, acceptance and integration (or commitment). • The emotions in each stage are triggered by a lack of enough information, suspicion, fear, frustrations, skepticism, shifting priorities, different reporting relationships, new expectations, a need for structure and certainty, feeling threatened, being comfortable with the status quo and not wanting change. • Think about how you can address these emotions and concerns.

Repeat, repeat, repeat: • There's a disconnect between what leaders think is frequent communication and how employees perceive it. • The majority of people need to hear information three to five times before they believe the message. • This is particularly important when you're trying to convince people of the merits of the change. • As people grapple with emotions, they're less receptive to believing what they hear. • Consistency and repetition are key.

Tips To Get Others To Buy In On Change

Develop an ‘elevator pitch’:

Change: Elevator Pitch

One or two-minute pitch that can express the following key points: • Here’s what our change initiative is about ... • It’s important to do because ... • Here’s what success will look like, especially for you ... • Here’s what we need from you ..

• Here’s what our change initiative is about ... • It’s important to do because ... • Here’s what success will look like, especially for you ... • Here’s what we need from you …

Tips To Get Others To Buy In On Change

Walk the talk: • Your credibility as the leader is crucial in getting people to buy in on the change. • If your credibility is low, people won't believe your message. • One of the most powerful ways to communicate a new direction is through your own behavior. • When people see you live the change vision, a lot of doubts and cynicism start to evaporate.

Change and The Traditionalists

How does this relate to Change Management?

As a rule, Traditionalists expect more personal attention, and therefore a perfect way of providing support to this group would be to focus on treating them as individuals, making them feel special, being patient and delivering “high touch over high tech”.

Change can be complicated, you can utilize these tips to customize your approach to change.

Change and The Gen Xers

Change and The Boomers

Consider communicating through a wide range of support channels and allow them plenty of time to ask questions and gather information they need. They expect the communication to be fast and efficient, and would rather receive information and choices in real time rather than wait.

In terms of change, Boomers are independent, with a “can-do” attitude. They like to dig in and overcome obstacles on their own. If a Boomer experiences change, value their time, be solution-oriented, and be ready to give them all the information they need to make an informed decision.
