Can organisational change be achieved without investment? Yes, it is possible. But no, not necessarily in every organisation. Let’s look at how it might be possible for your organisation to achieve change without additional investment.

Change is an important and necessary part of organisational functioning and subsequent success. Changes can be small, such as re-working daily processes and procedures for one team. Conversely, change can be more transformative and driven by innovation, growth, restructuring and mergers, compliance/regulations and more.

“Leading Change” (1995) is a seminal work in the field of organisational change and leadership by Harvard Business School professor John Kotter. It is considered by many to be a must read for anyone involved in change management.
