The future of work is on change management

Let’s Talk – Elise Freedman

I'm Elise Freedman. I'm a senior client partner in our organizational strategy practice.

Change management.

Well, first of all, change management, change management, change management, change management. You need to be willing to do things differently and be willing to make some of those hard decisions and big changes, not just minor tweaks.

Think holistically, prioritize ruthlessly.

Think holistically but prioritize ruthlessly. Focus on what matters the most and what is going to have the biggest impact and also act for the greater good. Think about your employees in the broader world's interest.

The purpose really resonates.

Employees want to work for organizations where they're proud to say this is who I work for and the purpose really resonates with them and they feel like they're really making a difference, whether it's in big ways or small ways, and I would say, be that difference. Let your company be that difference.
