Five A’s of Change for continuous improvement

The covid19 pandemic has been a very powerful mechanism for change. Everyone has experienced huge change and huge loses. Some changes are inevitable, but some changes also opened new strategies we did not know will work until it happened like flexible working conditions through digital transformation.

Reflecting on the changes you’ve made to your business is important and recognizing the process for these changes can improve outcomes over time.

There are5 A’s of Change that we can follow and adapt to achieve continuous improvement

1. Awareness

• Be aware of what needs to change. What changes should you prioritise? How can you reflect these changes in your business plan?

2. Acceptance

• Change is inevitable and it is a continuous process. It might be that you want stability but progress requires change.

3. Action

• We always have a plan but we must actually implement it. Take one step at a time and the change will grow. Remember that with no action, planning is useless.

4. Accountability.

• Having someone independent to hold us to account is a way to ensure that we act on what we planned.

5. Acknowledgment

• Acknowledge the change that you’ve been through and the way you respond to the pandemic crisis. You did your best and celebrate the success of taking action and forcing change.
