What is change costing you?
Evidence would say "a lot!"
When change is handled poorly, your business pays:
- Employee retention. Your most valued team member will be the first to go and the most expensive to replace. One study from the Center for American Progress found that the higher up an employee is in the company, the more expensive he or she is to replace. For mid-level managers, the cost can be approximately 20 percent of their annual salary. But for highly experienced executives, the cost can be a whopping 213 percent of their salary.
- Employee engagement. Employees often react to the uncertainty of change by disengaging. They’ll call in sick more frequently or take more PTO. You may find them taking longer lunches and breaks, coming in late, or leaving early. More time is spent surfing the web or other non-work-related activities as employees become actively disengaged from their jobs. Commitment will fade, and employees will be less willing to stretch the workday to meet deadlines and aggressive schedules. This all cuts into productivity. Loss of productivity and lack of commitment to customer service affects the bottom line. Most companies don’t measure the impact of disengagement, but every company I speak with has at least one story of an unplanned, unexpected impact. If companies took a proactive and intentional approach, how could they reduce the risk of these unwanted costs? Indirect costs due to missed work and associated productivity loss translates to approximately $1,685 per employee each year, according to the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) 2018 Employee Benefits If missed work and the associated productivity translates to $1,685 per employee and you have an organization of 200 people impacted by a change, that’s a $337,000 impact!
- Not my job-ism. People will start drawing a stronger box around their responsibilities and may be less willing to put in the extra effort to help another part of the organization. In the past, they would have done whatever was required to benefit the company. These employees become much more structured in their work schedule and very guarded about what they’re willing to give. Critical deadlines may be missed, and projects delayed.
- Customer service. The lack of engagement trickles down to customer-facing employees. Believe me, customers notice. The mood across the organization suffers as long as people are unsure about what’s going to happen to their roles within the company. Their lack of engagement shows up in their voice and their commitment to customers.

Is it right for you?
Is it right for you?
Leaders & Aspiring leaders
You are being asked to lead this change or your team will be impacted. You want people to support the change, but you are still coming to grips with how it will all work. You feel like you have more questions than answers and are often frustrated trying to keep up with information and know what it all means.
Change Practitioners
You are in charge of change within your company. You care passionately about making the change successful. You know what needs to be done, but sometimes it feels like you are the only one who see it. You sometimes feel like a scapegoat who has all of the accountability and not the right kind of leadership support.
Project Managers
You need to get projects completed but the amount of confusion, misinformation, rework and adjustments are making it impossible. Schedules and budgets are fixed, but the decisions are taking a while and the questions and concerns from employees are mounting.
