By setting expectations, employing tools to improve communication, and actively seeking ways to reduce misinformation, all parties are more likely to accept and buy into a change; as well as, remain committed to the changes with minimal discomfort associated with it. Organizational change management can be a difficult process for both the employees and the employers. To ease in the changes, consider the following: - Agreement on a common vision for change, without any competing initiatives. Leadership must repeat the goal and vision multiple times to paint a clear picture for everyone. - Strong executive leadership to communicate the vision and sell the business case for the proposed change. - Developing a strategy for educating employees about how their day-to-day work will be affected. - A firm plan on how to measure whether or not the change was successful, and follow-up plans for both successful and failed results. - Both monetary and social rewards should be awarded to encourage individuals and groups to take ownership of their new roles and responsibilities. --- #### Tag: [ Change Management](https://blog.nisbenefits.com/topic/change-management) #### Share: - [Follow us on Facebook ](http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https://blog.nisbenefits.com/5-considerations-for-organizational-change-management) - [Follow us on Twitter ](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?url=https://blog.nisbenefits.com/5-considerations-for-organizational-change-management&text=5%20Considerations%20for%20Organizational%20Change%20Management) - [Follow us on Linkedin ](http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://blog.nisbenefits.com/5-considerations-for-organizational-change-management) - [Follow us on Pinterest ](http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https://blog.nisbenefits.com/5-considerations-for-organizational-change-management&text=5%20Considerations%20for%20Organizational%20Change%20Managementdescription=A%20systematic%20approach%20to%20organizational%20change%20management%20is%20helpful%20when%20a%20change%20requires%20the%20employees%20throughout%20an%20organization%20to%20learn%20new%20skills%20and[...]&media=) --- [#### IRS Extends Due Dates for ACA Reporting Under Sections 6055 and 6056 ##### Previous Post ](https://blog.nisbenefits.com/irs-extends-due-dates-for-aca-reporting-under-sections-6055-and-6056) [#### Can small schools, cities or counties benefit from self-funding?
