Change and Transition

One example of this type of project would be the work we did with a small business that was being bought out by an international company. To facilitate the best possible transition for all members of the company we consulted and coached with the CEO, CFO and Director of HR to develop strategies for a smooth transition. We began by conducting one-on-one interviews and focus groups with staff and management to assess the current situation and develop a six-month strategic transition plan. The project lasted four months on-site two to three days a week, tapering off to once a week. During that time a management team was formed to deal with issues and put together a transition plan until the new owners were in place. Strategies were developed and implemented to reduce conflict, increase communication and deal with the anxieties of change. Workshops and individual coaching sessions were provided to help employees during this major reorganization
