Organizing for successful change management

Organizing for successful change management: Why change?

The most successful transformations of business performance occur when executives mobilize and sustain energy within their organizations and communicate their objectives clearly and creatively.

Executives further improve their chances for success if they significantly raise employee expectations, actively change people's behavior, and engage the attention of individuals at all levels of the organization, from top management to the front line.

The change-management process emerge as a coordinated program, in companies or business units, that typically involves fundamental changes to the organization's strategy, structures, operating systems, capabilities, and culture.

Transformations come in various shapes. Cost cutting, not surprisingly, is a consistent theme. Company's main objective is moving from good performance to great performance, observing that their company's transformation as a result of a restructuring: merging, splitting up, or divesting a part of the organization.

Executives mobilize and sustain energy, they strongly emphasize the impact of clear, comprehensive, and compelling communication. Again, the top performers are markedly more enthusiastic about some of the factors that underpin these themes:
1. Setting of clear goals as a part of the program.
2.Company integrate the goals of the transformation program into processes such as budgeting, performance management, and recruiting.
3. That successes were acknowledged regularly and publicly with the most successful transformations reckon that the company was conspicuously more effective than the others at raising expectations about future performance, addressing short-term performance, engaging people at all levels of the organization, including a clear and coordinated program design, and making the change visible—through, say, new IT tools or physical surroundings. These results reinforce the conviction that confronting these challenges significantly increases the odds for successful change.

Disobedience, in the eyes of anyone who has read history, is man's original virtue. It is through disobedience and rebellion that progress has been made. - Oscar Wilde

People Making Difference to others Life!

Dr.Matthias Rath - Cancer Foundation

The foundation’s money is used to support based natural therapies and educational work about the business practices of the pharmaceutical industry – about its ‘business with disease’.The Dr. Rath Research Institute conducts research in the health benefits of micronutrients in various chronic diseases and in maintaining health. They are using modern science and technology to study the mechanisms of nutrient actions and apply this knowledge to correct and balance cellular metabolism naturally. They have developed nutrient synergy as the most effective way to optimize various aspects of cellular metabolism without using megadoses of individual substances.

Research is based on Dr. Rath’s scientific discoveries, and it has led to the development of innovative solutions for various aspects of health. Research in heart disease focuses on optimizing blood vessel function as the main cause of coronary heart problems. Their multi-targeted approach to cancer, with its focus on the natural control of metastasis, has been shown to be the most effective way to curb the development and progression of this disease.

As you support Dr. Rath's goals and work, please play your part in bringing to a conclusion as soon as possible this conflict between doing ‘business with disease’ and freeing people to be healthy - in the interest of millions of people throughout the world.
