Our successes of the past may be jeopardizing our future breakthroughs “We are surrounded by opportunities but they only exist when we can see them.” From time to time we need to re-invent the organisation, question the old habits. Is it possible to achieve this in an uplifting and positive spirit, with the enthusiasm of the majority of the workforce? YES, IT IS. The ‘shake-up’ is a lean, bright and open process that helps people to look for hidden opportunities, come up with fresh ideas, and let go of old habits and structures that were useful once, but now have become a burden. In a restricted period of time (max. 6 months) and with an internal dedicated group, we select top opportunity roads, invent new ways of working, and change towards smarter, simpler, more efficient and fun ways with more satisfaction for all parties. We achieve a win-win-win situation. The shake-up ends with an overall presentation of 10 innovation projects, endorsed by top management, all of them with high success potential.   Shake-up   Shake-up steps Create commitment for the shake-up, in a TODAY way: Plenary session with participation of all interested parties physically or virtually; Selection of the core-shake-up team. Big opportunity scouting process, adapted to the culture of the organisation. Start of the 10 change projects. Follow-up with specific shake-up measures and communication tools. For whom? For every organisation that wants to develop change as a core competence and to develop in a positive, inviting and result-orientated manner.
