Change doesn’t end at implementation—that’s where it actually begins. No change is successful until it reaches the point of full adoption. For this to happen, leaders must provide ongoing support throughout the implementation process and share specific implementation responsibilities to create true team ownership for lasting success.
Sustaining change from implementation to full adoption requires continued leadership support and shared ownership in the change process.
Consider a change you’re overseeing right now. How can you keep supporting your team after the change begins? How can you hand over responsibility for parts of the implementation process so they’re as invested in the outcome as you are?
