Common Pitfalls of Change Initiative Discussed in Miller Heiman Article
RENO, NV -
April 23, 2007 -
Miller Heiman identifies common mistakes to avoid when effecting change in sales organizations, in its new article: Beyond Passive Resistance: Motivating Salespeople To Adopt Change.
Alexander also demonstrated how data and metrics can support successful adoption of change initiatives. "It's an eye-opening experience to measure success and failure against your peers. It either shows that you really are doing well, which inspires confidence—or it demonstrates how much better you could be, which spurs the sales force to action." He also adds: "If you're effectively benchmarking yourself, you'll understand what your capabilities are. Analyze past product releases, for example, to set objectives and see if your change initiative is having a positive effect, however incremental, on your current product release."
