What is a change process?

Changes are inevitable when the set of activities required to transform input into output is altered. If this is not a continuous process, the necessary changes accumulate until the situation becomes unsustainable and change is imperative to ensure the continuity of a business.

New competitors, shifting customer preferences, or economic fluctuations may compel your organization to adjust its strategy and operations to remain competitive. Innovations and technological advancements can render existing business models obsolete. Organizations often need to adopt new technologies to work more efficiently and maintain their competitive edge.

Changes in laws and regulations can require organizations to modify their processes and structures to remain compliant and avoid legal risks. Additionally, increasing globalization brings new opportunities and threats. Organizations must adapt to compete in international markets. Changes in societal expectations and environmental obligations also push organizations to operate more sustainably and responsibly.

In this context, a change process is a systematic approach to implementing changes within an organization. This process includes methods, strategies, and steps necessary to guide an organization from its current state to a desired future state. It may involve changes in structure, processes, technology, culture, or other organizational aspects.

A culture of continuous improvement ensures that changes remain small and manageable, reducing resistance and leading to better performance and results. This is motivating for everyone and provides more control over achieving ambitions. Therefore, a culture of continuous improvement is one of the five ICR growth principles.
