When you look back on your change six months after its gone live, will you be glowing with pride or wondering where it all went wrong?
Don’t wait to find out – do something now!
When it comes to organisational change there’s often a lot of pain, but not much gain. At the heart of the matter is the effect change has on people – the very things that drive them to excel at work are deeply threatened. No wonder people oppose or avoid change. No wonder it so often fails.
Organisations have to change, people don’t. And if people don’t change there is no change!
The good news is that by understanding what makes people tick you can reverse the situation. By working with the grain of human nature you can channel people’s energy and ingenuity in pursuing change rather than in opposing it – leaving you looking back on your efforts with pride not regret.

Anthony Greenfield leads the 5 Forces of Change, which is a company of successful change practitioners dedicated to taking the pain out of change, enabling organisations to innovate and adapt successfully.
The team has over 20 years experience of bringing about substantial changes in major organisations such as Marks & Spencer, PruHealth, GSK, The Northern Trust and Sainsbury’s, in the UK, South Africa and the US.
