Change management - beyond the wall of resistance
The key to successful change is all about mindset, communication and the ability to understand what is really happening - with full attention, openness and without preconceptions. It's about taking into account the human factor.
In today's businesses changes has become a regular irregularity. I help managers and change managers to master the
ability to lead employees through change by focusing on factors such as commitment, dialogue and genuine attendance.
I can contribute to strategic planning of management communication so it makes sense in an employee context.
“People don’t resist change. They resist being changed”
Certified as a change leader in the “Change Setter” system, I use Rick Maurer's theories on how to reduce resistance
among stakeholders by working with relationships, a circular vision of change and situational communication.
Furthermore, I help to set SMART goals and develop specific action plans for achieving the goals.
I contribute with
Mapping the stakeholders, support decisions on information channels and the preparation of a communication plan
To co-author and sharpen your future-orientated vision and core story, so they affect the
employees’ logical and emotional understanding, thus creating wholehearted engagementFormulation of key messages, core story and other communication materials which ensure
engagement and reduces resistanceTraining of manager’s communication and presentation skills
Preparation and facilitation of workshop concepts that create dialogue and reduces
resistance to change
Training in change management
Design and facilitation of training in change management e.g. for people working with HR or communication. The participants attain a basic understanding of the major theories of change management. They gain practical experience in using the theories through casework, where they are challenged in managing change and getting their stakeholders to join them by alternating between management and leadership actions.
Furthermore, I teach about the basic project leading disciplines such as e.g. setting a clear vision, defining SMART goals and developing concrete action- and communication plans.

Forandring kræver åbenhed - brug dit impromindset, article from 2014 by Puk Scharbau and Tine Lassenius Kramp
“You should never try to overcome resistance, instead you should learn how to meet it and attend to peoples core psychological needs in order to mitigate it”
Using creative methods for changing mindset and behaviour
Here an example on a global scale, from a series of eight videos/ web-isodes developed for Novo Nordisk for internal communication around strategic key-issues. Each episode is provided with a process template to use at team meetings, in order to make it easy for a leader to facilitate a short, tight process on the theme within his own team.
