Listen to your Radio

To analyse the real state of a project or activity. The change manager tunes into these key areas...

Risks     Assumptions     Dependencies     Issues     Opportunities

Whatever you are doing, put it into this context. In practical terms this means capturing and updating risk, assumptions, dependencies, issue and opportunity logs at least once a day. As you make notes in meetings think in these terms, and update the logs shortly afterwards. Immediately analyse these and take action! Do not leave this to the next day.

Change management is about uncertainty, if the outcome and the journey were known, we would not need skillful change managers. Therefore this RADIO model is at the heart of successful management.

TUNE YOUR RADIO, LISTEN CAREFULLY AND THEN TAKE ACTION!
