Ketchum Pleon Change
The management studies pioneer Peter F. Drucker noted that “Nearly everyone has accepted that change is inevitable. And in times of swift structural change only the change leaders survive.” The fact is that change is the norm nowadays. Yet planning and managing change processes continues to be a challenge. Communication has a central role to play.
Effect and Result Orientation
In recent years many of our clients have dealt with change processes successfully. No matter whether it was a merger or an acquisition, a restructuring or the founding of a new company, a strategic realignment or a repositioning in the market, they were able to rely on us to plan and undertake communication in the change process. Our main focus is on effective executive and employee communication programs. As a rule a project office manages them as a part of on-site consulting.
Commitment: Perspective und Involvement
The starting point for strategic considerations and specific measures in the change process is the perspective and involvement of the people affected. That requires experience, and it is why change management is “senior business” at Ketchum Pleon. We provide consulting services at eye level and offer the practical experience and expertise of the market leader in management, organizational psychology and communication processes.
Services
Our clients make use of a wide range of services to communicate their change projects:
- Strategic consulting in the run-up to and during the change process from an analysis of the actual situation as part of a reputation audit to the development of the future culture and behavior
- In-house reputation management to boost readiness to participate in strategy implementation, reorganization, restructuring or long-term corporate programs (such as demographic change, tariff system changes)
- Coaching the CEO and his management team with a focus on leadership skills, role definitions and effective management of symbols
