Change Management in Action
In a world where change is constant and increasingly unpredictable, traditional change management approaches often struggle to deliver sustainable results. This workshop introduces participants to Lean Change Management, a practical approach that combines ideas from Lean Startup, Agile, and traditional change management to create more responsive, collaborative, and effective organizational transformations.
What Lean Change Management is About
Lean Change Management is an innovative approach to organizational change that applies lean and agile principles to the transformation process. Unlike prescriptive methodologies that follow rigid plans, Lean Change Management embraces uncertainty through continuous experimentation, validated learning, and iterative delivery. It puts people at the center of change, focusing on co-creation rather than compliance, and values feedback loops that allow initiatives to evolve based on real outcomes rather than predictions. By combining visualization techniques, collaborative change design, and measurement-driven adaptation, Lean Change Management provides a flexible structure that helps organizations navigate complexity while building capabilities for ongoing evolution.
