Navigating organizational change can be a daunting task. There’s no shortage of research showing that a majority of organizational change programs fail. Any leader who has led a change program knows that even the most carefully planned programs can fail because of mediocre implementation. So, what do successful implementers of change initiatives do differently from other companies? They have an intimate understanding of the “human” side of change — the company’s culture, values, people, and behaviors that must be changed to deliver the desired results.
