The Change Leader’s Roadmap Methodology (CLRM) can be applied to all types of organizational change initiatives:

A Roadmap to consciously navigate the complexity of organizational change.

Fundamentally, the CLRM is a strategic navigation system, a roadmap that guides you from project launch through full adoption and sustainment of desired results. The CLRM provides best practice options to choose from to consciously design your transformational change process. By addressing exactly what you need, you intelligently navigate through the complexity of organizational change and ensures:



The Change Leader’s Roadmap

The CLRM does not tell you what to change. Rather, it guides you to consciously decide HOW to change – what actions to take in what sequence. The nine phases of the CLRM outline the natural way change initiatives unfold when they are successful.
Ensures conditions for success are established, leaders aligned, change strategy and engagement plans developed.
Gets the entire organization aligned for success from the beginning.
Establishes clear design requirements for required organization, culture, mindset and behavior changes.
Ensures an optimal design solution is created.
Clarifies the impacts of the change on the organization and people.
Establishes an integrated implementation plan for organizational, technical and human changes.
Delivers successful implementation and needed adjustments.
Ensures full adoption and sustainment.
Ensures best practices for future change initiatives are shared across the organization for when the next Wake-up Call is heard.

Operational guidance for every phase in the CLRM.

The CLRM provides tools, checklists, assessments and process guidance to enable you to flawlessly execute every task in your change plan.

Fully customizable to all types and scales of change initiative.

The CLRM is flexible, adaptable and fully customizable. It’s not a cookbook. It doesn’t prescribe action or sequence. Rather, it outlines what actions might be needed so you can choose which are in fact needed for your particular initiative.

Immediately up-level your change leaders’ skills and capabilities.

Using the CLRM will immediately increase the capability of your change leaders. It is like having an expert consultant at their side, guiding their decisions and actions. It will:

Each task is supported by numerous resources—over 2000 pages of change tools, checklists, info sheets, assessments, work steps, process questions, potential problems, and articles.
