A Closer View on Organizational Change

The managers’ perspective on change is results oriented. They are very aware of the business issues facing the organization and are accountable for the financial performance of the company. When a change is needed, they require action quickly.
In many cases, executives or senior business leaders must weigh the return on investment of this change as compared to other strategic initiatives in the company. Their primary concerns are:

When can the change be completed?
How much improvement will be realized?
How will this change influence our financial performance?
What is the required investment?
How will this change impact our customer

If the answers to these questions are favorable to business leaders, then the directive to a project manager or project team is typically “let’s get it done.”

Organization view should always lead to a better results than expected.
