RAPID Change
0 likes211 views
RAPID-Change is a model for implementing change quickly that follows the disciplines of a full change framework but focuses on the core elements. It is suited for projects that have lost direction, have fixed deadlines, or require energizing. The attributes of RAPID-Change include rising to the challenge, accelerating engagement channels, promoting realistic expectations, implementing through focused objectives, and taking action. Stakeholder engagement is embraced but to a lesser extent than in a full change model. The goal is to implement change quickly while still reinforcing and sustaining it.

- 2. What is RAPID- Change ? If you ask any client sponsor they will say that they want change and they want it quickly. Time is money and the faster the implementation the sooner the benefit is achieved. The client may well suggest that the change should be quick in any case if the consulting team are working efficiently. This may well be true, but there is also a need in some instances for RAPID- Change . This model follows the disciplines and theories of the full framework, but cuts to the heart of the matter to create a fast path implementation. Projects that will benefit from this rapid approach are: In progress and have lost direction and/or time. Projects that are required in a limited timescale…possible fixed deadlines or urgent situations. Projects that require energising. Projects undergoing crisis or costs issues et al. Change Warning One of the key benefits of a full change model is the reinforcement and sustainability of the change. With RAPID- Change stakeholder engagement is embraced, but not to the extent that it would be under the normal change model. However, good stakeholder management can quickly bridge this gap and more emphasis is placed on the post implementation phase. David Williams, PhD, MBA - Change Management Consultant
