Preparing for the futureThis is a featured page

Mental preparation
For people to engage with the future they have to create their own mental image of where they will be at points along the journey. That means that the communication process must provide all stakeholders with a high-level plan and describe their role within it. Good preparation involves:
  • engaging all participants
  • starting at the end and describing how this was/will be achieved
  • helping futures sponsors get buy in; both vertically and horizontally
  • recognizing the grief management cycle, knowing the current position and direction, speed of change of the organization
  • moving the organization and people through the grief cycle
  • helping sponsors understand the impact of their changes on people
  • creating an organizational development roadmap that tracks with the sponsors plan roadmap
  • aligning organizational success metrics with the futures sponsors plans
