How to Succeed at a Process Redesign Project
Presented by: Steven Stanton
Sadly, most transformation projects fail. While most organizations have developed strong incremental change programs, few have the unique capabilities needed for these big projects. Transformational projects always change organizational boundaries and power structures and therefore face a much more difficult challenge. Success requires a disciplined approach to two parallel tracks of work – the hard-edged and analytical aspects of process redesign and the personal and political issues of change mastery. These tracks run through all five phases of a Transformational Project:
- Mobilization – get ready
- Diagnosis – get the data
- Redesign – get out-of-the-box
- Implementation – get real
- Sustainment – get operational ownership
The common requirement across these phases is speed. Most senior executives have some form of ADHD and projects that take too long get killed or become Zombies (dead but they don’t know it). This requires constant attention to the 80/20 Pareto principle. You have to smart and quick to win with a big project.
This interactive session will use multiple cases examples to illuminate common pitfalls and the key requirements for success.
Attendees will learn
- How to design the right sponsorship and governance structure
- How to conducting non-stop stakeholder management
- How and when to use ReDesign Disruptor patterns
