What is change management?
Change is said to be the only constant in life. Change can create anxiety and fear, hence most of us avoid it! Change Management is the art and science of helping people, teams, and organizations navigate transitions with as much grace as possible.
The change in organization may be going through can be anything from implementing new technology to a reduction in force. All change can have a negative impact if not handled appropriately. Our goal is to support you through these changes and help you to lead your organization in such a way that these the impact of the change is mitigated, and a smooth outcome is achieved.
A successful change creates significant benefits for it’s employees and the organization as a whole, but to achieve these benefits, a proactive, transparent, and engaging change management program needs to be facilitated. That is where Navigation Partners comes in. Our primary goal is to bring professional expertise to your organizational changes and support you in successfully navigating those changes.

Small technology implementation - a department specific software implementation is being planned. You have a strong internal team that can handle tactical change needs; however, you do not have a change manager expert on your team. Using Subject Matter Advisor services from Navigation Partners, an expert can check in and ensure that the on-site team is thinking of everything and supporting the change with best practices in organizational change management.

Organizational restructuring – the business is undergoing a significant restructuring to meet changing business needs.
