I strongly agree that prioritize and sequence changes to avoid overwhelming your team. Change fatigue is a real risk when organizations implement too many initiatives simultaneously. By sequencing changes and focusing on critical priorities first, teams can adapt more effectively. Research by Prosci shows that employees are 3x more likely to resist change when they feel overwhelmed. A phased approach also allows for learning and adjustment between rollouts.

To effectively manage multiple transitions, strategically prioritize: if you sequence changes, you'll prevent team overwhelm; by communicating transparently, you'll reduce resistance; if you involve everyone from the start, you'll generate commitment; through adaptable leadership, you'll facilitate change absorption; with constant monitoring, you'll adjust strategies. The result: smooth transformations that strengthen the organizational capacity to evolve without fracturing the business culture.

I think the key to managing multiple changes at once is clarity and pacing. People resist change when it feels overwhelming, so set clear priorities, communicate the "why" behind each shift, and roll things out in manageable steps. Get buy-in early, support your team through the process, and adjust as needed based on feedback. Change is tricky, but when done right, it drives real progress; and let's just say, I've seen how the right approach can turn chaos into momentum!

Je suis entièrement d’accord avec l’énoncé. La priorisation, la communication sur les enjeux et l’importance de la démarche me semble être fondamental. Il faut que ça fasse sens pour l’équipe qui va entrer dans ce processus. L’adhésion de l’équipe apporte du souffle et de l’énergie à l’ensemble. Ouvrir des espaces de dialogues afin que la démarche soit participative afin d’être efficiente car par l’intelligence collective on va encore plus loin. Donc respecter l’autre lui permet d’accéder plus facilement à la démarche. Il ne la subit plus il la vit 👌🏽👌🏽
