Change is something none of us can avoid, no matter how hard we might try!
As we emerge from lockdown we’re focusing on the future.
COVID-19 has certainly had a big impact on the ways we work.
What will you do now to reset?
Here’s some of what we’ve been considering:
- what to preserve or reinstate from ‘the before times’,
- what is best left in the past,
- the shape (structure) and feel (culture) for the business in the future, and
- the steps to take to get there.
We can help you work through all the changes
But you can start right now with these 5 questions:
- What can continue as it is now?
- What needs to stop?
- What will we do more?
- What will we do less?
- What will we start?
Looking at your work through this lens can be very productive.
If change feels like a bit too much to think about, just focus on one aspect
Here are some likely answers to those questions if we use meetings as an example:
- We will continue to meet regularly.
- Freeform, endless, ad-hoc meetings with the same action list each time.
- Meet with an agenda and document the actions.
- Meeting when there’s no clear need.
- Use technology to prepare agendas.
Are you ready to reset in response to change?
Let us help!
