IMPLEMENTING CHANGE

Implementing Change Implementing change in any organization can be a complex process; however, it is important a manager understands his or her role of responsibilities. It is important that the manager teams up with other departments in leadership to see that the implementation changes are conducted successfully. The manager must identify the difference in the processes of change and how effectively to handle employee rejection or opposition in the change. When implementing processes, such assessments, forecasting, planning, and evaluation the organization with staff changing will management to focus on areas of significance. The managers role is the implement change with a lack of interference and rejection from personnel will be the difference from a successful manager. First the organization must first decide of the framework, develops, and goals to their organizational change. Organizations changes are more often than expected much of these changes can range from market, acquisition merge, global, management, etc. When an organization decides to implement reorganization changes it is important priorities, planning, and evaluations are successful for the entire organization, and all changes are adaptable for employees The role a manager accepts in an organization while implementing change has to be conscious of the structure of required of changes. Communication is an essential element for the role of a manager. Communication must be effective it can facilitate the organizations changes in operations to run more efficiently, and employees become more contented. These are some of the best practices during the implementation change processes. To implement changes the manager must communicate to the employees with an explanation for the changes and why the changes are necessary to the

organization. The explanation must be detailed by encouraging the group with a personal interest on behalf of the employees, for the success of change (Ezine, 2008). An area of disadvantage for role of a successful manager is the resistance from the negative rejection from employees. The first change is by dealing with the rejection of employees. Often people relate to change as a natural defense. The uncertainty of not knowing can create fear in individuals and the lack of details. Implementing changes can affect the organization and could questionable to the employees. The manager must share his or her visions, results, and goals of achievement during the change. When processes are not communicated creates increased fear, a lack of trust from the managers within the organization. To implement a successful change each person should share the same vision, goals, and how it will become beneficial for all and not just the organization. Individuals often will react positive to change and interest only if it is beneficial them, and if included in change process. The second area where change can occur in an organization is in the processes, and this is the area that deals with the way things are done and handled in an organization (Ezine, 2008). A manager should remember that no one knows the need to change a process better the people who uses the organization processes daily. It is important to involve the individuals changing a process will affect and receive the feedback from them this will give a manager a sense of if the change has worked positively or has failed and a new approach is necessary. For example when changing of the equipment the manager, and organization is required to stay up-to-date on the equipment that operates as the foundation for the organization. These areas must routinely be addressed and updated, as it provides evidence to be costly and critical to the successful of the organization.

The change process is similar in many organizations; every manager pursues different processes. The initial process is assessment; it is the act of systematically gathering data concerning an organization to determine the performance (Clas, 2011). Once the manager is implements the assessment process collection of data and observing how employees, and the organization are adapting and performing. The assessment process should be implemented in scheduled routines, and provide feedback in areas of strengths and areas of weakness. It is important to address any areas needed for improvement or require change. Should the manager choose a change requests to take place. Subsequently; process would be planning for the change. Planning is recognizing the problems, determining root causes or contributing factors in the problem and finding a solution to the problem. A manager must review the information gathered, and finding the best solution. The implementation phase would become the next process. Once the manager has found the solution and is going to construct the changes into the day-by-day schedule, the manager can anticipate that it provides positive results and resolves the problem. The final step involving the managers role is the evaluation process, following after the manager has assessed the circumstances, identified problems, established solutions, and this process evaluates the solution found. All processes will help the manager understand and share the results of the successful change. Management can provide illustrations on how an implementation of change worked successful. Providing the manager the experience and reference guide to how to conduct future changes. Managers plays a significant role in implementing changes to an organization; the manager should be experienced by differentiating involving areas of change and

deciding the importance of which area requires the most attention. The implementation manager ensures each member of a project team completes the steps to implement a new process or information system on schedule (Kelchner, L. 2012).

It is certain that managers will encounter employee resistance and difficulty by handling the change processes as well. A successful manager must address any resistance, barriers, and problems that may arise with positive solutions and effective communication skills. Successful organizations have managers follow the change processes by incorporating assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation into their daily schedule. Successful managers help to create productive working environments they expect challenges and complications; they create solutions to problems, and implement successful changes to achieve their organizations goals. The experience in business management demonstrates knowledge of organization practices. The implementation manager or coordinator disseminates information to affected workers and is responsible for training but is not responsible for the creation of the process (Kelchner, L. 2012).
