I started myself a firm! We are a tiny firm - and by we, I mean mostly me - doing big things to help manage and take the "hard" out of your organizational change, because you have to grow through it, so you might as well do it as painlessly as possible. Making change less hard ain't easy, but I've got some tools and tricks to help companies going through a M&A integrations, org restructures, or need to be turnaround because you're hemorrhaging money and are headed for bankruptcy. But I'm not just running your average change management firm, I also harmonize business processes, do organizational design, and coach and develop your leaders, using a few tools like Emotional Intelligence (for Leaders & 360s) and Change Style Assessments. And I don’t stop there! I also do a Navigating Change training to help you and your employees understand where you are emotionally, with the changes you’re currently going through. Have I piqued your interest yet? If so, check me out at designorgsolns.comIf you'd like to pick my brain, please schedule some time to discuss at https://calendly.com/docta_rob/pick-my-brain.

Here’s where I learned that there’s a difference between OCM and just good old change management. I did OCM and I did change management. I was the overseer of all the projects happening throughout the organization, providing a framework for the level of change support each project required, and assessing the impact of the change (that’s the OCM), but I also rolled up my sleeves and put in the work, performing gap analysis, stakeholders engagement assessments, crafting communications, and planning training (this is the change management). Unlike most other merger and acquisition integrations I’ve worked on, the work here wasn’t just the integration of two companies, but 12. Yep, you read that right. 12 companies, all previously operating as a decentralized silo, needed to be integrated. What a huge, but satisfying challenge.

This role was trial by fire. It’s the role that made me declare, “If I can succeed here, I can succeed anywhere!”My mission was simple - turn the place around. Turn people who were angry, disappointed, and frustrated, into a workforce who were once again engaged. I did that by defining, replacing, coaching and developing the leaders that were needed to influence employees, restructuring the org, giving employees a voice by including them on project teams, training, etc.
