Change Communication

No one likes change and no one likes to be changed

But in today’s business world where transition of some kind takes place every day, effective communication is essential. Why? Employees want and need to know how the change will affect them. When key stakeholders are only vaguely aware that changes are taking place, or they are met with ambiguity surrounding these changes – it can provide fertile ground for rumours, anxiety and ultimately resistance.

Change programs should be supported by:

• Relaying the importance of the underlying business strategy;
• Fostering dialogue and debate on the key issues of concern; and
• Sensitively disseminating relevant information across the right mediums.

Employees at all levels will be more willing to make the change work if they know they have a vital role to play.

Some areas where change communication is essential include:

• Organisational restructure
• Mergers, acquisitions
• Business expansion, business refocus, changes in strategic direction
• Staff and management appointments, resignations
• Organisational downsizing, retrenchment, redundancy
• Major projects or technology initiatives that will impact on people and processes
• Business process engineering
• Business results / performance.
