A directed team will deliver value within the constraints established by management.
A self-organizing team, unencumbered by micro-management, will deliver incremental and unexpected value that could not have been envisioned.
What's the takeaway for change management?
Change Agents often act as managers, providing constraints and setting direction for a group of stakeholders on how they will change via the change plan and activities.
Instead, try allowing certain stakeholder groups to self-organize around the end-goal.
Provide vision and direction and then act as a coach, supporting the stakeholders in their journey.
Empower stakeholders to co-create their change journey and then pull activities and events when they are ready.
You'll be amazed at the unexpected value that is unlocked.
In our Lean Change Agent workshop, we teach Change Agents how to leverage the power of Agile frameworks and principles to enable and empower stakeholders to self-organize around the change.
