Why is it important? Dramatic improvements in business operations Implementation of a corporate innovation culture is nearly impossible Implementation of complex systems will fail or will fall short of expected ROI
Why is there resistance? Change Objections We always did it that way I like doing work my way I m not sure a new method would work any better Yet another management initiative that will fail Why are we making this change? I don t see the rationale. Business Change Drivers The work method is no longer effective The way we accomplished tasks is not the most efficient This new method has been proven at many other companies This change is necessary, is here to stay and will be supported by the entire management team The delivered business benefit of this change will be quantifiable as follows..

If we can achieve those results, we better start changing very soon.

Holistic Approach
Holistic Definition Holism (from Greek holos all, whole, entire ) is the idea that natural systems (physical, biological, chemical, social, economic, mental, linguistic, etc.) and their properties should be viewed as wholes, not as collections of parts. This often includes the view that systems function as wholes and that their functioning cannot be fully understood solely in terms of their component parts. Oshry, Barry (2008), Seeing Systems: Unlocking the Mysteries of Organizational Life
Basic Principles of a Holistic Thinking Made up of interdependent parts They cannot be separated All needs to work at its best Constantly interacting with everything in the surrounding environment
