Successful OCM strategies include:
•Agreement on a common vision for change -- no competing initiatives.
•Strong executive leadership to communicate the vision and sell the business case for change.
•A strategy for educating employees about how their day-to-day work will change.
•A concrete plan for how to measure whether or not the change is a success -- and follow-up plans for both successful and unsuccessful results.
•Rewards, both monetary and social, that encourage individuals and groups to take ownership for their new roles and responsibilities.
