Planning and Implementation Methods
Discover how agile methods and structured project management work together to shape change.
In today’s business world, change is inevitable. The key to sustainable success lies in actively shaping this change—and that’s precisely the role of Change Management Consulting . Agile techniques and traditional methods work hand in hand to help companies manage change.
Design Thinking and Design Sprint are methodologies that aid in developing creative solutions to problems. They promote an environment where ideas can flow freely and rely on quick, iterative learning cycles. Similarly, the Google Sprint is an intensive, one-week design method designed to produce rapid results.
A Change Management Plan provides a clear structure for change, while a Communication Plan ensures that all stakeholders are informed and understand the direction of the change. The Balanced Scorecard allows viewing the company’s performance from various perspectives, providing a solid basis for decision-making.
To structure work and create transparency, Trello Boards or Kanban Boards are often used. The method of Goal Setting or OKRs (Objectives and Key Results) sets clear goals and measures progress. Roadmaps offer a visual overview of all activities and planned development.
However, before any planning can begin, it is crucial to gather information. Methods like the Empathy Map or Interviews help to understand the needs and challenges of the stakeholders. Special Analyses, such as a cultural analysis, allow exploring the existing structures and norms within the company.
Finally, change models also play a vital role. Models like ADKAR, Kotter, Kurt Lewin, or Krüger (5 Phases) provide a framework for Change Management to follow. They assist in breaking down the change into manageable phases, thus systematically steering the process.
