Navigating change as an integral aspect of management
As companies grapple with the need to change, often on multiple fronts, communication plays a crucial role in overcoming internal resistance and change-fatigue, thereby allowing new ways of working to be adopted.
H/Advisors Klareco’s transformation experts have deep experience in working with our clients, including listed corporations, private equity funds and their portfolio companies to analyse their challenges, identify the best approach and apply the tools best adapted to the situation. Their role is to help clients introduce new structures and improve processes, and above all to bring about the more profound cultural transformation which is the ultimate success factor in any corporate change.
Our teams provide expertise in all the most sensitive transformational moments throughout a company’s lifecycle. These include:
- Strategic alignment
We help our clients build the narrative to tell their story. We design the suitable dialogue formats for top management and executives. We enable team-level communication plans. And we work with our clients to implement post-transformation communication programs.
- M&A and post-merger transformation
We accompany our clients throughout the full process, from transaction to transformation. We help conceive, draft and implement the pre-merger and Day-One change story and roadmap. We provide management training in the equity story and integration rules. We work on the development of the new corporate culture. We draft and implement Day-One communication plans. We work on top management roadshows and marketing lighthouse projects. We deliver cultural awareness, integration, and dialogue programs. And we are hands-on throughout the post-merger integration processes.
- Restructuring
Content development is a crucial element in any restructuring process. This includes the storyline and messaging specific to identified target groups. We develop the full communications planning development process. We execute information events for managers, employees, politics, major customers, and suppliers. We design manager empowerment programs. And we work with our clients to ensure that they are fully prepared in terms of crisis prevention, scenario planning, and leak strategies.
- Cultural change
Our role as external transformation consultants is to provide the culture assessment and analysis necessary for any successful program. We help develop goals, draft mission statements, implement internal communications programs, and design the leadership programs and collaboration workshops to ensure that all the players are empowered and aware of their new roles.
