How to Be a
Successful Change Leader
The 3 C’s
These 3 C’s are the most common themes that united effective change leadership:
Communicate. Unsuccessful leaders
tended to focus on the “what” behind the change; successful leaders
communicated the “what” and the “why.” Leaders who explained the
purpose of the change and connected it to the organization’s values or
explained the benefits created stronger buy-in and urgency for the change.
Collaborate. Bringing people
together to plan and execute change is critical. Successful leaders worked
across boundaries, encouraged employees to break out of their silos and refused
to tolerate competition. They also included employees in decision-making early
on, strengthening their commitment to change. Unsuccessful change leaders
failed to engage employees early and often in the change process.
Commit. Successful leaders made
sure their own beliefs and behaviors supported change, too. Change is
difficult, but leaders who negotiated it successfully were resilient and
persistent, and willing to step outside their comfort zone. They also devoted
more of their own time to the change effort and focused on the big picture.
Unsuccessful leaders failed to adapt to challenges, expressed negativity, and
were impatient with a lack of results.
