Chaos to calm - Communicating change. S2 E9

Around 70% of change programmes fail. Often this failure is linked to employee resistance, poor management, and poor communication. If we know that so many fail due to, in part, poor communication, why is bringing in communication professionals still left until the last minute?

 

In this episode, Jenni talks broadly about communicating change inside organisations: why it goes wrong, three factors critical to success, and the "six concerns of change" for you to consider after listening. She also shares a quick-win approach, plus resources for further listening/reading.
