From ERP and technology implementations to operational and structural transformations, successful change depends upon buy-in from every segment of the employee population. How do you ensure that employees at every level adopt the change and deliver on its promise? How do you take a proactive approach to creating successful and enduring change? The answers lie in effective change management, communication, and training.

Our services encompass the entire change management lifecycle, from change readiness and impact assessments to training design and delivery. Whether your project requires one consultant or ten, HR Transformations provides proven talent with the skillset, tools, and follow-through practices you need to achieve the change you want.

We Work With You To Develop Effective:

Vision & Measures for Change

“If you build it, they will come.” A compelling vision of the future can motivate and inspire others by helping people understand the benefits of change — both for themselves and for your organization. We work with you to create a collaborative organizational change process among the right people in your organization, so that each person can clearly articulate the need for change and adoption measures, as well as describe what it will look like when the organization gets to where it needs to go.

Change Readiness And Impact Assessments

Suppose the key decision makers all agree that organizational change is necessary. But how will individuals respond? Where might you find a reluctance to change and how can you minimize it? Anticipating reactions to an upcoming change provides critical insight into potential barriers. A change readiness assessment enables your organization to anticipate challenges to change and create strategies to manage or avoid challenges altogether. Our customizable approach to assessing and planning for change means we’re prepared to help whenever you’re ready to get started.

Leadership and Sponsorship Activation, Planning & Coaching

Leaders often need to quickly develop new and sophisticated skills when conducting business, structural and cultural changes. Only individual coaching can provide customized skill development within a tight timeframe. When it comes to change leadership, coaching provides a safe, objective place where leaders can explore ideas, vent their frustrations and push forward to maintain your project’s momentum.

Improving Organization Performance by Design

All organizations are perfectly designed to achieve exactly the results they are achieving. If you want to see better or different results, we can help.

First, we assess your current Organization design, including your organization's culture, structure, tasks and roles, decision-making processes, people and leadership competencies, information flow, and reward systems. Then, we collaborate with you on the redesign of your organization to achieve your desired outcomes. Finally, we create an action plan that serves as your roadmap for implementing a new organisational design that is sustainable and supports your goals.

We work with you to effectively:

Assess The Organization

Understanding the weaknesses in your organization design is the first step in achieving a new, better design. There’s no more second-guessing with our proprietary Organization Health Assessment (OHA) approach that asks all the right questions to accurately analyze your organization’s current design.

Shift The Culture

Every organization has its own culture with its own unwritten rules of behaviour. Implementing a major change may require a corresponding shift in your organization’s culture. But how do you change people’s behaviour? We can help you make the shift. First, we help you identify your vision for your renewed culture. Next, we create a map of your current culture and, finally, we devise a plan for bridging the gap.

Develop A Mission, Values and Strategy

Is your organization unfocused? Are your employees or even your leadership team slow to make decisions, seemingly working at cross-purposes, creating silos and letting their interpersonal issues get in the way of teamwork? Your organization may lack a clear mission, vision, values or strategy. We facilitate processes to help you create a common purpose, focus and plan, so you can proactively determine your organization’s future.

Align Process To Structure

Is your organization undergoing a structural change? There’s always the risk that you’ll make inadvertent changes to your processes along the way. Structural change is an opportunity to revisit the design of your processes, improve them and ensure they are fully aligned with your new structure. We work with you, engaging with relevant stakeholders in business process design, while maintaining a high-level focus on the end-customer of the process.

Whatever your needs, our multi-talented team is ready to help with any aspect of your design, or the entire project.

Building Organizational Effectiveness

Leaders often ask: How can we increase our effectiveness as an organization? We offer a variety of services that significantly improve how people work across your organization — individually and in groups. Depending on your specific needs:

We might start by facilitating meetings that align people to common goals and activities, and then provide a sense of purpose and focus.

Or we might create a team process that helps to increase clarity about roles, responsibilities and accountabilities across your organization.

Or perhaps you need help creating an approach to succession planning that ensures you have the leadership talent you need, now and in the future.

Whatever your organization’s development needs, whether strategic planning, facilitation, team development, leadership skills training, talent & succession planning, performance management or review processes, we can help.

Delivering Lasting Results Through Training and Development

Leaders know that change of any kind—whether an increase in a manager’s effectiveness or the successful implementation of a new technology—only happens as a result of meaningful and sustained change in individual and group behaviour. But how do you foster change in your people’s behaviour? Skill and competency building through training is a tried-and-true approach.

We help create the architecture for learning and development within an organization. Such projects can include curriculum for leadership and employee development, as well as large-scale change projects like new technology implementations. We can design and deliver ground-up training workshops in areas such as customer service or leadership, geared to creating skills in competencies that we help you identify. We also offer over 30 'off-the-shelf' workshops that we customize for in-house delivery at your organization, with relevant case studies, role plays, and exercises.

Our services encompass the entire training process, from needs analysis and curriculum development to training design and delivery and train the trainer programs.
