Assessing Change Readiness We offer a set of qualitative and quantitative assessment instruments to gauge the extent to which a team or an organization is ready to approach and embark on significant change.

Although change is the constant feature of any organization, something that leaders have come to accept and factor in their work, it is something that few organizations consciously plan and manage effectively. Whether an organization is facing incremental or radical change, driven by external or internal factors, we offer a set of qualitative and quantitative assessment instruments for gauging the extent to which a team or an organization is ready to approach and implement the range of changes that will allow it to survive, thrive, and demonstrate breakthrough performance.

Example. The leadership team of a high-growth luxury goods company was looking to make some fundamental changes in its distribution model, moving from in-department store boutiques to stand-alone, mono-brand shops. They were concerned about the their ability to reorient their sales forces and other support functions. We designed and implemented a survey and conducted interviews with key stakeholders to identify the most pressing issues in the transformation effort and the current potential for change among the organizational talent. The data were shared at the leadership team offsite and lead to a detailed action plan to effect change over a 12-months timeline.
