Accelerating Your Business Recovery
Shifts in Strategy Require Implementation Management

As organizations confront radical challenges, leaders may contemplate seismic shifts in strategy. These strategic shifts must be implemented surely and swiftly. Speed has never been more important than it is today. But communication decrees from the top are not enough to ensure implementation success. The Accelerating Implementation Methodology (AIM) offers a simple, but not simplistic, framework for guiding implementation of new strategies through a complex web of organizational issues that can easily cause these strategic lifelines to stall out or even fail.

Do It Yourself, but Do It Wisely
Invest a Little to Save Alot

It’s no surprise, but we hear the same refrain from clients all the time: we are just going to do this implementation ourselves. Frankly, there is nothing wrong with taking this approach; in fact, we agree that organizations should never rely on outsiders to manage business critical implementations over the long-term. We are firmly on the side of building the capability to execute strategies internally. At the same time, we recommend that organizations invest in learning how to do this better for themselves. Look at the Implementation History of most organizations and you will see why we say that it is just plain smart to spend a little on organizational learning.

Use AIM Assessments to Quickly Diagnose Implementation Troublespots
Untitled Document

The AIM Assessments are an easy and cost-efficient way to apply measures to the human aspects of project implementation. All of the tools can be purchased online in paper-based format, or we can conduct an online Assessment for you, compile the data, and produce a summary report (which we will interpret for you). For information on our online Assessment services, call us at 800-752-9254 or email us at info@imaworldwide.com.

 

Each of the Assessments provides a snapshot of critical contributing factors for implementation success. To see descriptions of all of our Assessments visit http://www.imaworldwide.com/catalog.aspx.
