Change Management

Helping our clients prepare their people for the change initiatives

Change management is an approach to transitioning individuals, teams, and organizations from a current state to a desired future state. The Pyradigm focus for Change Management is on activities which will influence how the people who are effected by change react to the change thereby reaching a state where these people not only accept change, but embrace it.

Pyradigm understands that companies today continuously strive to improve their processes for better performance and to maintain or improve the organization's competitive advantage. However, many organizations realize that certain cultural barriers or willingness for change may exist, hampering the desired change from taking place. Unless organizations identify and mitigate cultural and process barriers, organizational transformation remains hindered.

Pyradigm consultants utilize a number different Change Management methodologies for implementing and sustaining change with in an organization.


Cross-practice Collaboration

Business Strategy

The Business Strategy practise works closely with the Change Management practise. A number of activities carried out by Change Management consultants are taken into consideration when defining business strategy. For example, the Business strategy will take into account the potential resistance to a certain types of change as well as the organization's senior manager’s ability to work as Change Sponsors and Change Champions which contribute as factors in deciding what is the best project to execute. Therefore these factors addressed in Business Strategy will be effecting and helping to define the Change Management approach.

Project Management

It goes without saying that Change Management goes hand-in-hand with Project Management. Although Pyradigm usually develop a Change Management plan which is separate from a Project Management plan, more often than not, Change Management activities are executed as part of the Project plan. It is imperative that Change Management initiatives are begun from the start of a project and the Pyradigm emphasis always for the Project Manager and the Change manager to work very closely together.

Business Analysis

Perhaps the lesser of the collaboration is with the Business Analysis practise. However, there are disciplines of Business Analysis which are used such as Stakeholder Analysis.
