Are you an HR leader feeling overwhelmed by the constant pace of change and the pressure to support your employees through turbulent times? You’re not alone.

The rapid advancements in technology, the changes to our working environments, and ongoing economic and environmental shifts are creating new challenges that demand innovative solutions.

Yet when it comes to approaching and delivering change, too often we still rely on traditional methods. It’s no longer about just ‘managing change’ it’s about bringing your people on the journey with you, inspiring and mobilising them to come together, embrace, and jointly ‘own and drive’ transformation.

That’s why we recently created our guide that has been designed to support HR leaders in navigating change and transformation using a more forward-thinking and human-centred approach. We explore the biggest challenges affecting you and your peers today and offer ways to provide a more seamless, personalised and engaging experience to your people, (rather than overwhelming them with projects, applications and notifications’).

And when it comes to technology, we talk about the effects of system overload, offering practical ways of ensuring that your technology works with you rather than against you when it comes to landing your change agenda.

It’s time to move from ‘change management’ to ‘sparking a movement’.

 

Why are traditional methods no longer fit for purpose?

Traditional ways of delivering change and landing strategic messaging may no longer be fit for purpose. For a start, change is now constant, so running it as an end-to-end programme is obsolete; rather change is a wave we all need to learn to ride as comfortably as possible.

Most HR leaders will have a change programme on their ever-growing to-do list, and these can often be viewed as discrete projects. But from an employee experience perspective, this is not necessarily how your people will see them.

Rather, they are likely to just view it as part of their overall employee and work experience. This is why we must move on from ‘managing change’ to ‘sparking a movement’, inspiring our people to come on the journey with us and co-creating the future.

 

Is your tech working for or against you?

Approaching technology in the wrong way can be more of a hindrance than enabling, particularly when it comes to landing change, so how do you make sure to work with your tech and not against it?

If your people don’t know where to find information or how to engage with your communications, how can you be sure that any of your messages are landing? Not to mention the fact that spending more than a quarter of a working day searching for content is damaging productivity, something no organisation can afford in such challenging and fast-moving times.

Ripping out technology and starting again is clearly not an option. Focus on making the best of what you already have, and ensure good communications, relevant signposting and content aggregation is at the forefront of your thinking.
