Business Transformation
- Do you need to engage employees with the 'burning platform' as to why change must happen?
- Do you need employees to not only understand the ‘what’ but also the 'why'?
- Do you need employees to accept their role in the transformation?
Business transformation requires employees to make dramatic changes to what they do and how they do it, but employees will resist this level of change without knowing reasons why they should, and agreeing to those reasons.
Leadership has the vision of what must change, but it is ultimately the thousands of decisions and actions taken daily by employees that will determine whether that vision is realized.
At Applied Learning, we have 10 years of experience in creating accelerated learning programs that effectively engage employees in large transformation efforts. The underlying philosophy of our approach is rather than tell people what to think or what to do differently, give them a fun and engaging process by which they can examine marketplace information. By exploring this marketplace information with a group of peers, using a series of pre-designed dialogue questions, the group will arrive at the appropriate conclusions for themselves.
"I will listen to what my manager has to say, but I will act on my own conclusions."

Dealing with Change
As an organization rushes to adapt to the needs of the market, it relies on each individual within the organization to deal with several levels of change. How each individual deals with change is often the main factor that determines whether they will be successful in the new environment. The collective responses of everyone in the organization will determine whether the company will be successful in the marketplace. By cultivating an organizational culture of properly dealing with change, a company can continuously transform itself and rely on it as a strategic advantage.
Clients have asked us to create custom Knowledge Maps to help employees deal with change at several different levels.
Some companies want to focus their employees on the structural changes going on within the company and what their role will be in the change process and the new company.
Other companies want to focus on a personal change process, equipping people with the skills and attitudes for dealing with ongoing change. A customized solution would be designed to meet your company’s organizational goals and imperatives.
We will work with you to understand your business needs and develop an appropriate solution that achieves those goals.
