We have talked a lot about change on this blog – we have provided many tips to help Human Resources and Organizational Development professionals move their organizations forward. But what happens when you implement a change strategy and it loses steam over time? Here are some tips for sustaining your change initiatives:

• As a manager in charge of a change initiative make sure to set short term wins and celebrate them with the team when they are achieved. Recognizing and rewarding employees when they are making progress toward the larger goal will encourage them to follow through to the end.
• Take the time to track and monitor the change process to ensure the right people and the right processes are in place and are making steady progress towards achieving the desired outcomes.
• Continuously check in with the key players to ensure they are on-board and that they are moving the change initiative forward. All parts of the change plan need to work together in order for the change to be successful.
