Saturday Catch-Up: Building The Future

From reimagining operating models to fortifying organisational resilience, from crisis communication preparedness to the symbiotic relationship between change management and AI adoption, and the evolution of change management frameworks—today's Saturday Catch-up: Building The Future collection charts a course toward more agility in change. All published in June this year, these articles bridge the gap between aspiration and implementation, and give a glimpse into how change management provides the structure to build your future organisation.


  1. From 14 June 2024 Transforming Your Operating Model for Change Success discusses creating opportunities for experimentation, creativity, and new ways of working. Encouraging a culture of innovation within your organisation can lead to breakthrough ideas, enhanced product offerings, and sustainable growth through ever-evolving markets. Embracing change in your operating model is not just about efficiency; it's also about fostering a culture of continuous improvement and adaptation. Whether restructuring teams, adopting new technologies, or revising workflows, change in your operating model can drive significant improvements in performance.

  2. If your organisation still feels as if it's uncertain about how to deal with rapid change, building resilience is a necessity and will soon become a competitive imperative. Published 11 June 2024, Future-Proof Organisational Resilience: Building a Strong Foundation explains how by embracing change, leveraging technology, developing talent, fostering partnerships, and prioritising risk management, companies can future-proof their operations and ensure long-term success. Having these systems set up and operating as a constant function of business-as-usual positions organisations to maintain relevance on a day to day basis.

  3. Crisis communications strategies are more critical than ever. As change management professionals, we understand the importance of being prepared for unexpected challenges that may threaten our organisations' reputation and operations. This post looks at how you can ensure you have robust crisis communications in place before you need them, emphasising the key elements of leadership, and agility when unfortunate circumstances descend. Read more in How to Ensure You Have Crisis Communications in Place Before You Need Them from 28 June 2024.

  4. Understanding Change Management's Vital Role in Supporting AI and Digital Adoption was published 12 June 2024. Change management serves as a guiding light for organisations undergoing digital transformation. Through an inherent understanding of the intricacies of organisational change and human behaviour, change management professionals can support seamless transitions from traditional to digital processes. The structured approach offered by change management ensures that all stakeholders are on board, mitigating resistance and fostering a culture of adaptability.

  5. Finally from 6 June 2024, The Evolution of Change Management Frameworks explores how businesses are now being constantly challenged to innovate and adapt faster. Traditional change management approaches have struggled to keep pace with the rapid evolution of business and the boundary-blurring between business adoption and digital adoption. This has led to the rise of agile methodologies in change management, emphasising flexibility, collaboration, and iterative processes. Agile frameworks enable organisations to respond swiftly to market shifts, experiment with new ideas, and foster a culture of continuous improvement.
