The PEOPLE component consists of a series of evaluations and recommendations in organizational change management (readiness assessments, communication and transition planning), organization design, and training requirements. This component is designed to prepare the organization through involvement, skills development and buy-in to mitigate risks and assist in the transition to the desired state. The sub-activities of the organizational change approach are aligned with the process improvement phases for an integrated approach, driving buy-in and sustainable value. The BLCN organizational change consultant will identify the necessary activities and develop a change plan to coordinate with the assessment, implementation and deployment of the project.
  1. Communication Planning: Communication is the activity of delivering the right message, to the right audience, through the correct vehicles at the right time in order to diminish apprehension caused by the unknown and to motivate the team to make the necessary change.
  2. Readiness Assessments: Readiness assessments are performed to understand the perceptions and expectations of the various stakeholders and the impacted organization in order to identify actions to mitigate potential risks. These assessments are performed with different levels of the organization based on the phase of the process improvement.
  3. Job Design: Job design, or re-design, is an activity that reviews the current and future state of a job role during the process design phase of a project. This activity will identify potential impacts to leveling, staffing, skill training needs and productivity during the learning process before and after the deployment.
  4. Transition Management: Transition Management provides direction and oversight of the organizational change activities, provides assistance / guidance to the project manager(s) and leadership.
