” To ensure the success of a change initiative, one must take a holistic approach that considers not only the technological but also the interpersonal aspects of the change. The integration of the change into the organizational culture and processes is a best practice that should be followed. Other best practices include effective communication throughout the process, engaging stakeholders at all levels. Continuous monitoring as well as feedback mechanisms are absolutely necessary in order to detect any deviations and make the appropriate adjustments. In addition, offering employees ongoing training and support makes it easier for them to adjust to the change and continue exhibiting the behaviors that are desired.
However, there are a number of potential obstacles in the way of a successful implementation of the change. The resistance of workers who are accustomed to the previous ways of doing things can impede progress. Confusion and uncertainty can arise when there is a breakdown in communication regarding the motivations behind the change as well as the advantages that result from it. It’s also possible that the change efforts will fail due to insufficient support and commitment from leadership. For instance, if a healthcare organization wants to implement a new electronic medical records system to improve efficiency, the transition could be hampered by resistance from clinical staff that is accustomed to paper-based processes and inadequate training. In addition, there is a possibility that the project will be put on hold if senior leaders do not take an active role in promoting the change and allocating the necessary resources.
