Change Capacity Assessment (CCA)

Description

Culture can eat strategy for breakfast. Make sure it doesn’t happen in your organization.

Is your company currently planning or undergoing a major change? What is your capacity to manage this change well from a People perspective? How likely is your team to either embrace or resist the change?

Gain an intimate understanding of your organizationa’s ability to implement and sustain a positive transformation. The Change Capacity Assessment (CCA) is a comprehensive report that gives you relevant insights into your team’s change capacity.  

The CCA evaluates 51 mindsets and beliefs to help identify the capacity of the business to collaborate well, extend its horizon, integrate ideas into actions, reliably deliver quality, and proactively anticipate challenges. It also helps to identify the presence of a Lone Wolf or Role Model, which are individuals or small groups of individuals who are negatively or positively influencing the organization as a whole.

So what? Why does this matter to you?

Using qualified data science:

1. Ensure your business has the capacity to drive strategic shifts and manage positive change. 
2. Educate your team on known cultural obstacles that can affect the success of your business.
3. Monitor the success of change initiatives based on KPIs and key cultural indicators.
4. Identify the presence of an individual that is negatively or positively affecting the team as a whole.

NOTES:

1. In this version, up to 10 team members complete the Assessment and the results are combined into an integrated Company report.
2. Once all participants have completed the Assessment, you’ll meet with your consultant to receive and review your custom, integrated report.

Reveal your Capacity to Sustain Change

The CCA is a survey for your whole organization, to:

• Score the adaptability of a business to change, pivot appropriately, and evolve sustainably.
• Identify the presence of individuals with outsized impact on the larger team’s ability to adapt.
• Provide multi-dimensional outputs and insights to affect change.

Use Cases:

• Strategic Planning
• Integration Planning (M&A, Systems Integration)
• Digital Transformation
• Diversity, Equity, Inclusion Initiatives
• Opportunity Evaluation (M&A, Private Equity, Venture Capital)
• Leadership Transition
• Human Capital Initiatives

How It Works

The CCA uses the CHIRP framework:

• Collaboration – inclusion of diverse perspectives in decision making
• Horizon – ability to look beyond present circumstances and see bigger picture
• Integration (Integrity) – translation of ideas or concepts into scalable actions
• Reliability – discipline to consistently execute
• Proactivity – ability to anticipate future events and plan for them

Results are reported using the NCS (Net Capacity Score).

The NCS measures the impact of group behaviors and dynamics of an organization’s ability to accelerate the flywheel and generate momentum.The range of scores are from -100 to +100 with negative scores indicating friction and positive scores measuring capacity to create momentum.

Why It Matters

1. Quickly measure flywheel agility and acceleration.
2. Design change initiatives based on current state, not ideal state
3. Gather data that provides valuable insight to impact multiple areas of a business
