Methodology
Review key concepts and learn from the successes and failures of others through examples and case studies. Heighten the understanding through exercises. Wherever possible, the exercises should guide the team in doing the real thing. Where this is not possible, the management team will provide the information a change architect needs to fine-tune the change strategy, support platform and implementation plan to be validated by the team at a later time. The discussions relative to leading change are based on questions asked in the 360-degree feedback. If desired, follow-up coaching can be provided to support the top managers in leading the global implementation project.
