Making Change Human: Connecting People with Their Workplace

Workplace change is a major challenge. When managed effectively to include everyone, it becomes a major opportunity. Workplaces are first and foremost about creating the place and space for people to thrive. Helping them to positively understand, anticipate and own a change creates more than a successful transition, it inspires them to succeed. Andy will share the human-centered methods he has developed at BDG architecture + design to successfully connect people with their work and workplace. Most change approaches focus on the A to B of change, often ignoring the important human aspect. Andy will present the real factors that are in play when change happens, how to address them and create a unique approach, just for your organization. Each change project is part of ongoing workplace evolution. Change affects the workplace balance. Workplaces are a combination of People, Place, Space and Activity, bound together by communication and enabled by technology. If one of these changes, all of the others are affected. If people don’t thrive, neither does the business, so focusing on connecting people with their workplace is essential. People are motivated by impact. The impact they have, as well as things that impact them. Change impacts on human need in the workplace. Understanding the transition of change in terms of its impact on individuals is essential in exchanging uncertainty for ownership. Change is a rollercoaster that is as emotional as it is practical. Don’t just tell people what’s happening, connect them positively with the transition. It’s part psychology, part communication, part creativity and comes from a positive, flexible base. Discover the best of what is, Imagine what could be, then Create and make it happen. The reasons for change and impact it creates are unique. We’ll share a staged approach to building a change programme that’s just for your organization, brings your people with it and secures the success of your important workplace investment.
