4 Facing constant change without competence has meant failure for most A. CONSTANT CHANGE Continual and accelerating pace of change Multiple drivers and triggers of change - technology change, competition, costcutting, M&A, new operating models Large-scale change across all dimensions of the enterprise + = B. UNSKILLED CHANGE Little organisational capability to effectively implement change Lack of understanding of how effectively sustain implemented changes and results Lack of rigorous tools, approaches and measurement all art, no science C. FAILED CHANGE 1. A track record of project failure 2. Legacy of un-realised benefits 3. fatigue & resistance 70% of reengineering efforts fail to get implemented 74% projects are not successful¹ 53% projects cost 189% more than planned² Over-budget, over-schedule programs Lack of benefits realisation and ROI Widespread resistance to change across the organisation Source: 1.

5 But organisations continue to tackle multiple change challenges Deploy large-scale, deep transformation programs (M&A, innovation, market de-regulation, sustainability, simplification) in an increasingly global market Implement and sustain changes from a series of change projects with minimum disruption to the business (program driven change) Manage multiple, enterprise-wide continuous improvement programs or the impact of shortterm cost-cutting in response to market conditions (evolutionary change) Copyright 2014 Accenture All rights reserved. 5

6 How change capable are organisations? Accenture research of 674 global executives learnt that... 48% Are not confident their organisations can quickly mobilise to serve new markets and customers 50% Do not believe their culture is adaptive enough to respond positively to change 44% Are not sure their workforces are prepared to adapt and manage change during economic uncertainty Source: Accenture s 2010 High Performance Workforce Study Copyright 2014 Accenture All rights reserved. 6

7 An ability to execute change well is now part of an organisation s formula for success From our research we concluded... management must be an internal, and eternal capability present within the organisation at every moment... organisations now have to be change capable all the time. Building a change capability that can support continuous, concurrent change is another change challenge in itself! Copyright 2014 Accenture All rights reserved. 7

8 So what is a change capability? 1 2 A core competence of high-performing organisations A domain of the many, not the few Alongside Process Excellence, Customer Focus and Talent Management Capability is a critical component of the DNA of a high-performing organisation to be fit to exploit the opportunities in an economic down-turn and accelerate out of it The capability affects multiple layers of the operating model. It starts at the top with change capable leaders; provides a framework and tools for both managing the current portfolio of change programmes and individual change initiatives; and creates a network of experienced practitioners within the business and support functions to repeatedly deliver planned outcomes as part of business as usual Capability Management. 3 4 A proving ground for leadership and talent at all levels A differentiating organisational capability The experience gained in managing successful change becomes an expected step in the career of a high-performer, and a way of developing talent in the organisation. Experience is recycled through structured communities of practice and locked-in to the organisation through a curriculum and knowledge-sharing tools Competitors can replicate a CoE, but lasting differentiation and sustainable advantage comes from embedding the capability for executing change in all aspects of how the organisation functions Copyright 2014 Accenture All rights reserved. 8
