Leadership for change and improvement: How are you doing?
Do you have a clear sense of where your organisation is trying to get to? How easily can you explain this to someone else?
Are you clear about the purpose (or ideology) underpinning any planned change or improvements? Why is this purpose right for your organisation?
What steps have you taken to identify the actions needed to successfully achieve the change? Who have you involved in developing this plan?
What have you done to communicate clearly to everyone the rationale and purpose for change? What checks have you made to ensure everyone has understood your message?
How are you dealing with concerns about and resistance to the planned changes? Is progress towards the underlying purpose being affected?
How consistent are your actions with the rationale for and purpose of this change? What can you do to maintain greater consistency?
What steps have you taken to make sure all stakeholders understand and have engaged with the purpose of this improvement?
