Changing structures and procedures to achieve strategic corporate or operational project goals are often unavoidable and at the same time complex. We accompany our clients in the strategic corporate or operative project context. We develop clear target visions, suitable structures and strong rollout concepts to implement these with the needs-oriented integration of the crucial human factor.
Change Management: It is about the mindset.
Is your company currently undergoing an agile transformation? Are you about to meet the digital requirements and lead your workforce in new directions? Are you relocating your processes abroad (offshoring, nearshoring)? Or maybe, are you merging with another company?
Even if the answers to all these questions are different, they always involve big changes and challenges: lack of commitment and communication of management, resistance and fears on the part of the employees, lack of ability for the new tasks or experience in implementing the change. We consider these challenges as an opportunity for the next development step for your company.

„Any change, even a change for the better, is always accompanied by drawbacks and discomforts“. (A. Benett)
Every change in a company triggers uncertainties, fears and resistance among many employees. Therefore, any change processes must be carefully planned and introduced. Together with you, we develop a change and communication concept that provides the employees with the answers to the questions WHAT, WHERE and HOW. It describes the usefulness of the change measures as well as concrete steps for their implementation. The change concept serves as a guideline for management throughout the entire change phase and helps you to deal with resistance, among other things
In order to ensure a sustainable acceptance of change and to give employees an orientation in the change process, it is indispensable to include them in the change design process. Transparent and regular communication plays a key role here. We define all target group-specific contents, communication media and phases in a communication concept together with you. In order to enable your employees to cope with the changes, we develop appropriate training measures and accompany them with workshops, training and coaching. Simultaneously, we ensure that your company's top managementis is continuously involved and supports the change process.
Our strength lies in connecting our broad range of expertise in various fields. For our comprehensive consulting approach, we draw on internal expertise in the areas of Agile Enablement, IT Service & Transition, Business Process Management, Project Management as well as Training & Coaching. Through this approach, we achieve sustainable change in cooperation with you.
