Employee Experience Mapping
Change Readiness Assessment and Change Management Plan
Change Readiness Assessment and Change Management Plan
Each employee needs different development, guidance, and connections at different stages in their career. The uniqueness of each employee’s journey introduces learning and development complexities. Some companies choose to create Employee Journey Maps to better understand the moments that matter in each employee's experience from hire to retire. This process would involve conducting employee research or analyzing engagement data, developing employee personas, identifying the moments that matter in the journey (stages), creating a journey map, and looking at each stage in the journey to see where employees might get lost or become frustrated; taking action to smooth out any bumps in the journey. This can be tied directly to mentoring as a solution, but can also be useful for redesigning processes, training, and other learning initiatives.

We all react differently to change. Some will be eager to engage with the new program while others may be hesitant. Some will adopt right away, some will take a "wait and see approach". It is important to understand all the risks to a successful change and develop an organizational change management plan to mitigate those risks. This process includes a stakeholder assessment and change management plan development.
