Change advisory—organizational change management

Change is inevitable in today's business environment. To stay competitive, organizations must adapt and evolve.

To achieve their goals, companies need to invest in change management and create the right processes to track their progress.

RSM's change advisory practice provides tailored organizational change management (OCM) solutions to help middle market organizations navigate complex transformations successfully. Our proven methodology strives for increased employee engagement and long-term success.

OCM is a customizable and scalable system for accelerating company-wide efficiency by helping employees adopt new ways of working. We use change advisory to analyze employees, teams, programs, processes and the organization as a whole.

Our OCM practice has guided businesses through the many complexities associated with modernization and transformation. We develop unique and comprehensive change strategies that align with your business objectives, paving the way for a smooth transition with minimal disruption to your operations.

Our proven methodology

Our five-phase OCM methodology, based on the Global Association of Change Management, provides a structured framework for successful change implementation:

1. Evaluate: We help our clients obtain clarity on the ask, define the change and develop business success measures while retaining the stewardship of those measures throughout the event.
2. Formulate: Upon defining where our clients are in the transformation journey, we use our proprietary tools to develop communication strategies, stakeholder engagement and an overall strategic change plan.
3. Develop: When our client’s needs are met and agreed upon, we integrate the change plan with project leadership while continuing to develop the plan and consistently monitoring risks.
4. Execute: We focus on learning and development. We also manage and monitor the change plan, support user acceptance and training as required, and monitor feedback for risks.
5. Realize: We evaluate outcomes against objectives, examine success measurements and conduct lessons-learned exercises.
