Change Leadership Alignment Process Step 5: Develop Change Leadership Capability

Updated: Sep 12

The strategic change leadership alignment process develops change leadership capability, so the organisation’s leaders are aligned, as a high performing team, with change leadership skills and knowledge to successfully lead your organisation’s change, transformation or improvement to accelerate employee change adoption and deliver sustainable long-term benefits.


Step 5. Develop Change Leadership Capability:

Fundamental to the successful implementation of organisational change by it leaders is their change leadership capability. Change waits for no leader and the skills required for leading day-to-day operations are very different to change leadership. We use change management gamification to develop change leadership skills. Our approach focuses on using experiential learning through a change case study where the leadership team gets to assess, select and implement their chosen change tactics through three simulation change phases: Plan, Execute and Sustain. As a result, the leadership team are equipped with change leadership knowledge, experience, change mangement models and tools which will enable them to be successful in leading organisational change and transformations. They will become more aware of how to manage stakeholder resistance, expectations and feelings as they try to achieve their organisation's vision and employee change adoption.

The change question set all leaders should be able to answer:

"Do you have a change vision? Are you aligned on your strategic objectives? Are you a high performing team? Does your team have change leadership skills to lead the change or improvement that your organisation is facing?"

Corporate thinking about change management has evolved in recent years and it is considered as a core competence by some leading organisations. Varying degrees of change capability, low employee adoption, lack of sustainability and low benefits realisation have become the drivers to develop corporate change capability. Change capability starts with the top leadership team, they understand previous change history and the barriers to success so they align strategically as a high performing team and then develop the skills and knowledge to successfully deliver future organisational change.

"If more employees were better leaders of change, the organisational benefits would be endless"
