Progressing from the business problem through solution, planning, development and implementation seems clear enough. But how many times has your company embarked on a major change and gotten well down the path only to find out that:

• We have produced a technical success but a business failure - the solution works technically but doesn't work in our business or doesn't meet critical business needs.
• The original business problem changed but somehow, the project team wasn't told.
• The solution is so misunderstood that there is active resistance - even sabotage - in getting people to adopt it.

Each time you start a major change effort, start through the business change lifecycle, and have to start over, costs mount and schedules just go out the window.

At Praxis Life Sciences we know that integrating change strategy, with process improvement, and structured organizational change management are critical to any significant change effort.

Change Strategy		Developing a business strategy is challenging. Moving from your vision to reality is often much harder. Are you solving problems or symptoms? Does your effort have the sponsorship and resources required to succeed? Have you really gone through a prioritization and selection effort or does the loudest voice prevail? Praxis works with senior executives and key stakeholders to make sure the strategy is in place before the change effort begins.
Process Improvement		Understanding the changes your solution will have on your current processes is critical. You need to understand where you are, where you need to be and be honest in defining the gap between those two points in your change journey. Let Praxis work side by side with you in developing the future state of your solution strategy.
Organizational Change Management		If you build it, will they come? Your solution requires changes in the way your employees do their work and probably changes in the tools they use every day In other words, multiple groups in your organization will need to do their jobs differently. Let Praxis help you manage the changes and impacts on your employees to ensure acceptance - and therefore success.
