Digital transformation is a complex process that involves adopting new technologies and new ways of working. To successfully navigate this change, implementing an effective change management strategy is essential.
Why Is Change Management So Important in Digital Transformation?
Change management encompasses the methods and actions designed to support individuals and organizations in transitioning from an initial state to a future state. In the context of digital transformation, change management is crucial for aligning objectives, processes, and corporate culture with the opportunities offered by new technologies.
A successful digital transformation is not just about selecting the right technologies. It also requires ensuring that the teams affected by these changes are prepared and supported. Without proper change management, new solutions risk being misused or even rejected, leading to additional costs and a lack of return on investment.
At Kezber, we have chosen to integrate change management as a complementary service to our digital transformation projects. We want the solutions we implement to be fully adopted by our clients so they can maximize their benefits. That’s why we support them at every stage of the change, helping them define their objectives, engage their teams, and measure their results. Our personalized and human-centered approach allows us to build trust with our clients and provide them with an optimal experience.
“For me, change management means supporting employees affected by digital transformation in a human way, so they feel understood, valued, and supported. It’s also about making people excited to explore new technology because we take the time to address their questions, needs, and expectations. By doing this, we make change smoother, more enjoyable, and more effective. This helps avoid frustrations, resistance, and productivity losses.”-Stéphanie Dupuis, Project Manager and Change Management Specialist at Kezber
The Benefits of Effective Change Management
An effective change management strategy increases the likelihood that employees will embrace change, better understand it, and minimize associated risks.
✔ Encouraging Change Adoption
Anticipating and managing potential disruptions and concerns helps ensure better acceptance of new initiatives.
Improved Understanding of Changes
Guiding employees through the transition process enhances their comprehension of new practices, processes, or technologies.
Risk Reduction
Change management helps identify and mitigate risks, minimizing negative impacts on the business.
Performance Optimization
Helping employees adapt to changes ensures business performance is maintained or even improved during transitions.
The Importance of Support
To illustrate the importance of change management, Stéphanie Dupuis emphasizes how crucial it is to prepare teams and support them throughout the transformation process:
“Change management is a key element in achieving a successful digital transformation. Many projects fail not because of technology, but because of the human factor. Users are unprepared—they haven’t been informed, trained, or involved. This can create frustration and productivity losses. However, if we prepare users in advance, explain why the change is necessary, what benefits to expect, and how they will be supported and trained, the project becomes much smoother and easier to accept and adopt. This is what change management support is all about.”
What Does Change Management Support Look Like?
It consists of a set of activities designed to assess and guide employees through the change process. For example, this includes:
- Impact analysis
- Identifying needs, expectations, and resistance
- Defining objectives and success indicators
- Developing and implementing communication and training strategies
- Evaluating and adjusting the change process
Through these activities, we measure employee readiness, raise awareness, provide training, offer support, and ensure they are fully prepared for deployment. Change management support is a crucial success factor for digital transformation projects.
