Maintaining Momentum for Workplace Change

Jodi Williams, a workplace consultant in HOK’s Advance Strategies group, writes about the interactive “vision session” that’s used to kick off client projects:

Plenty of clients give us a hard time about needing enclosed offices – for concentration, for visual privacy, for audio privacy, because they need to be seen as a leader, because their dad had an office, whatever.  As long as there is strong leadership from the top and good change management, the bright, cheery, open office concept seems to work out pretty well for corporate America.

There are holdouts in every change process. Much of change management involves delicately handling their resistance to keep the process – and enthusiasts – from losing momentum.
