Change your people adopt, not endure
Most change initiatives fail for reasons that have little to do with the plan itself. They fail because the people asked to carry the change were never brought to real ownership of it, their concerns were never surfaced, and the future on offer was never compelling enough to work toward.
Our method
Two proprietary tools, one method
A diagnostic that shows where you stand, and a facilitated process that turns the findings into a plan your leaders own.
Part one
The AxiomVerve Change Readiness Diagnostic
Our proprietary diagnostic assesses how well your organisation is set up to deliver change. It shows precisely where the gaps are, judged by what your people would actually report, not by what policies say.
Because readiness shifts once a change is underway, we re-run it during implementation, not only before launch.
12 elements, assessed across four areas
Area 1
Leading and structuring change
Area 2
Engaging and sustaining people
Area 3
Governing the process
Area 4
Communicating change
Part two
OLIVE Change Facilitation
Our founder’s OLIVE framework, adapted from executive coaching, turns diagnostic findings into commitments. Your leadership team works through three facilitated half-day sessions, each ending in concrete, owned actions rather than discussion alone.
O
Ownership
L
Leverage
I
Insight
V
Vision
E
Execution
Session 1 · Half day
Diagnose
Ownership and Insight
Your team leaves with: A shared, honest picture of where you stand, and ownership of the gaps rather than deflection.
Session 2 · Half day
Design
Vision
Your team leaves with: A specific picture of the future, in your team’s own words, that answers “what’s in it for me” for the people who will live with the change.
Session 3 · Half day
Deliver
Leverage and Execution
Your team leaves with: A map of the strengths you can build on, and time-bound commitments with clear owners.
After the sessions
Reviews at 30, 60 and 90 days re-measure readiness and track progress in three ways: how people behave, how they feel about the change, and the results it delivers.
