Change Management Simplified
Hello,
How often have we as leaders and managers had an idea for improving our organization, but due to recurring tasks we could never seem to find the time to refine the idea and implement the changes? Oftentimes in modern organizations the staff is so thin that employees perform multiple tasks and have very little time to devote to anything new. Leaders and managers often find themselves bogged down with their daily and recurring tasks. When they are not performing these normal, recurring duties they are "fighting fires", or managing the pop-up crisis of the day. This seems to be the norm for many companies, but it may pay big dividends if leaders and managers can make some time for organizational improvement.
One method may be to simply set aside an hour per day to get away from the phones and email to brainstorm and refine ideas for future implementation. Leaders and managers may be able to let their assistant answer the phone for a short period of time while they put their ideas on paper. This may be an iterative process with short steps taken until the idea is refined and ready for implementation, but it may be an effective way to balance creativity and business process improvement with recurring tasks and the typical "crisis management" that many managers get bogged down in.
