How does REAL change happen?

All change experts and leaders know this maxim but few companies implement it: Positive change happens when an organization’s leaders have major dissatisfaction with how things are going, see a vision forward, and take aggressive first steps toward the future. As shown in the chart, this effort must be greater than the organization’s resistance to change. Paragon utilizes this principle for every project, so results happen and are sustained.

How we make change happen : From current to future state

Change = (Dissatisfaction X Vision X 1st Steps) > Resistance
Build dissatisfaction with status quo results & behavior...
... with a compelling vision to excite & ignite
... taking decisive first step...
  • Executive steering committee
  • Empowerment team
  • Strategic focus
  • Continuous improvement
... while overcoming resistance a patient killer
  • Laws of power
  • Something new
  • Flavor of the day
  • Not invented here
  • Just a set aside
  • Too busy
  • Wait and see
  • I support diversity but
  • What’s in it for me?

Do not underestimate degree of change & improvement required for success
