Change readiness : Self Diagnosis

Do a little assesment of your own organization.

Consider how it has approach change in the past and how it is approaching any current activities.

Then score it using the brief diagnostic test, using a 1-5 scale ( 1= strongly disagree, 5 strongly agree).

Our organization...                                                                                                                         

1. Mobilise Energy and Commitment to change through joint diagnosis of business problems
2. Develop a shared vision of how to organise and manage for competitiveness
3. Identifies leadership
4. Focuses on results, not on activities
5. Spread changes to other units without pushing it from the top
6. Institutionalizes success through formal policies, systems, and structures
7. Monitor and adjust startegies in response to problems in the change process

How does your organisation fare on these parameters? A score of 3 or less in any category points to serious weakness that you'll want to identify and correct.
