Low stability: high chaos
High emotional stress
Control becomes a major issue
High undirected energy
Glorifying the past
Conflict increases
Resistance starts to build
Organizational Culture
• Culture consists of the norms, values,
beliefs, expectations, behaviors and
assumptions that exist in an organization
Exercise:What do you think?
• How do you think CTS’s culture affects its
ability to successfully change?
• How will it affect your ability to implement
your change?
• What can you do as a Manager or Project
Leader to move CTTS towards an ideal
culture?
• “Corporate culture is real and powerful. It’s
also hard to change, and you won’t find
much support for doing so inside or outside
your company. If you run up against the
culture when trying to redirect strategy,
attempt to dodge. If you must meddle with
the culture directly, tread carefully and with
modest expectations”
– Bro Uttal
– Corporate Culture Vultures
Summary
• Companies that fail to change may not
survive
• By changing , CTS stand to gain
significantly in many areas, which will
benefit everyone
• CTS’s organizational culture may not be
“ideal” but understanding the current
culture will assist in helping make changes
that will positively affect it.

Individual Change Process
• By Definition, Individuals will move
through the process at different speeds
• Your role is to effectively maximize the
speed through the change process, reducing
the time spent in Denial and Resistance
Summary
• There are four typical stages of change
–
–
–
–
Denial
resistance
Exploration
Commitment
• all these stages are normal and expected
• Be sure to plan for and manage all stages,
especially Resistance.
Remember…..
• “Its
not so much that we’re afraid
of change, or so in love with the
old ways , but it’s a place in
between we fear…it’s like being in
between trapezes ….there’s nothing
to hold on to.”
4. Managing Resistance
• Resistance is a Normal
Reaction to Disruption and
Real or Perceived Loss
Question?
• What resistance to change have you
encountered in the past ?
Sources of Resistance
• Aptitude
– Is unable to make the change
• attitude
– Doesn’t want to make the change
• Threshold for Change
– Doesn’t have the “energy” to make the change
Sources of Resistance: Aptitude
Individual Abilities
See change as more
work
Fear inability to
develop the new
skills required
Don’t understand
what it will take to
be successful in the
future state
Low Tolerance for Change
Fear the unknown
Don’t want to accept the death of
the old ways ( preservation of the
past)
Have “scars”from prior changes
Sources of Resistance: Attitude
Lack of Motivation
Don’t see the need for
change
A compelling vision has
not been presented
No positive consequences
for changing
Perceive costs greater
than benefit
Differing Assessments
Change initiators usually
have more information than
stakeholders
Those affected may not see
the “Big Picture” therefore
the change does not make
sense
The Faces of Resistance
Not Enough Time
Anger Attack
Silence
Withdrawal
Endless
Questions

Intellectualizing

It
Faces Of Resistance
Active
Passive
Because it is out in
the open, active
resistance is more
constructive and
easier to manage
than its
underground
counterpart
When resistance is

unnoticed and
undermine efforts to
transform an
organisation

Failing to report
problems

new way
– “We’ve always don it
this way

resistance

5 Key Communication Points
Rationale
Why the change is occurring
Vision
What the organization will look like in the future
Plan
How and when the organisation plans to make
these changes
WIIFM
Resources
Why they should support the change
Who is supporting the change, sponsors, change
agents
Frame of Reference
A personal frame is made up of
assumptions about self, others,
tasks, and the organization that
lead a person to behave in a
particular way
“A common trap managers and
executives get caught in comes
from attributing one’s own
perceptions, values, feelings and
needs to other people. In other
words, we often assume people
are made like ourselves”
From “making mergers work”
By Price Pritchett
Two Way Communication
• Ensures that both parties have the same
understanding of a situation
• Reduces misunderstandings
• Provides a vehicle to build trust and
demonstrate empathy

goes from one party to another

Plan
Myths about Change Communication
• What others don’t know can’t hurt you-the rumor
mill will fill in what you don’t explain
• You can control what people will perceive
• Understanding can be developed simply by
broadcasting information
• Giving people information will lessen the impact
of the change
• Communication stays the same over the life of the
project-same messages same media
• One size fits all
Principles of Change Communication
• Communicate, communicate, communicate
• Align communication to the business case and
vision for change
• Communication must be:
– Consistent
– Frequent
– Tailored to the stackholder group
• Use varied, but existing channels to communicate
to stackholders
What is Performance Management
A method to link employees actions
and behaviours to company
strategies and goals using systems
that define, monitor, measure, report
on, improve and reward desired
employee performance
What is Performance Management
• A method to Link employee actions and
behaviors to company strategies and goals
using systems that define, monitor, measure,
report on, improve and reward desired
employee performance
Why is Performance Management Important
in successful Change Implementation
• “ That which gets measured and rewarded
gets done”
• What are the new behaviours and
performance standards?
• How will we measure them?
• How will we reward them?
Principles of Performance
Management
• Performance standards are aligned with
company strategies and goals
• Metrics exist to monitor performance
• Employees are provided with specific goals
and actions to improve performance, on an
on-going basis.
Team based Structures Work Best When
• People share common, clearly defined goals
• Everyone on the team will benefit from achieving
the goal
• Different types of expertise and skill are needed to
accomplish the goal
• Tasks require interdependence and interaction
• The organizations culture supports and values
employee involvement
• Managers are willing to use team output
Team based structures are less effective when:
• One person can be equally or more effective at the task
• The task requires individual accountability and / or fast
paced decision making
• Work output required in a short time
• Team members accountabilities and reward systems are
different(especially when in conflict)
• Not having the requisite interpersonal skills, or the energy
or commitment to acquire them
• Managers do not understand or support team process
• Organization does not have value collaboration and will
not reward people who share information, expertise or
success.
Factors in Effective Team Building
• Coaching:
– The team management philosophy requires that
workers be trained to “ manage” themselves.
Managers need to be coaches rather than
“bosses”
• Decision Making:
– It must be made clear who has the
responsibility and authority for which
decisions, both inside and outside the team.
Factors in Effective Team Building
• Communicating:
– Everyone needs to know what's happening, and
clear mechanisms for communications must be
in place
• Chartering
– Mission, Vision, Values
– Ground rules
– Roles and responsibilities
Factors in Effective Team Building
• Competencies:
