You have ended a very successful first year with your new company or organization. You are enthusiastic about the progress you made and the progression opportunities that are ahead. As your first year draws to a close you are busily preparing for the annual retreat with the management team and the CEO.
While there will be many reporting opportunities for every manager and some other key constituents the CEO has given you an opportunity to present and has asked you to identify what priorities you would like to establish given the time you’ll be allotted in this annual meeting. You informed the CEO that you want to address the very important topic of creating lasting change in the organization. You want to make sure that change becomes habituated and that there is the recognition that this wasn’t just a year of novel activities that were perhaps interesting and engaging.
You want to reinforce the notion that there truly is a change in how we do business here and that everyone involved needs to embrace this new day and recognize that the habit of change is not going away.
Write an essay, that should include the following:
- Introduction and a description for how you would introduce the topic of making consistent or habituating change.
- Offer and analysis with three (3) to four (4) major points which identify the steps that are necessary to make change a more consistent and predictable aspect of the organization.
- Identify how you would conclude these comments in a way that would communicate to the audience your level of seriousness regarding the need to make change an indispensable aspect of this organization.
