Are you the Biggest Loser? - Find out how to cut the fat from your business processes

Effectively embedding change into an organisation is a discipline that few organisations are able to perfect. Often, change management activities are an afterthought, or not given the attention required to effectively weave the change into the fabric of the organisation.

Harvard Business School Professor, John P. Kotter, identified eight common barriers to major organisational change:

  • 1. Organisational complacency
  • 2. Ineffective teams driving the change
  • 3. Unclear vision
  • 4. Ineffective communication
  • 5. Staff not empowered to implement change
  • 6. Not enough "short-term wins" to motivate throughout
  • 7. Loss of momentum
  • 8. New approach is not adhered to
