Organizations need to move their enterprises to a more economically efficient and sustainable model. Traditionally, change management consultants work with a senior team to first clarify the organization’s vision. The challenge, however, is this team does not have all of the answers. IPI’s positive change management model works by employing the collective wisdom and knowledge of the your entire organization and using this to inform the vision.

Positive change is about taking action and doing things that move your organization toward its vision of a better future. When this vision is shared among those responsible for making change happen, implementation time goes down and engagement and performance go up.

Our decades of experience reveal that strong and successful organizations are built around a core of best practices, strengths, and the aspirations of their people. It also reveals that solutions generated or adapted from inside organizations are much more likely to work than those imposed from experts on the outside. Appreciative Inquiry, Rapid Strategy Development, Positive Deviance, Rapid Prototyping, and other strength-based change methodologies are some of the tools we use in partnership with you to facilitate positive change.

Whether clients are entering new markets, redesigning processes, or implementing new technology, we constantly ask “What are the strengths of this organization and where is the untapped potential in this system?” By identifying positive outliers and core strengths, organizations create fertile ground for new ideas, high engagement, and sustainable growth.

We use these elements in:

• Strategy Implementation
• Appreciative Governance
• Summit and Retreat Facilitation
• Technology Roll-out and Adoption
• Innovation and Change Efforts
• Team and Executive Coaching

These three critical elements differentiate our approach:

• High Engagement: We engage stakeholders at every level of an organization in order to harvest innovation from diverse sources as well as to create coordinated action and results.
• Strength-Based: The focus of our initiatives is converting an organization’s strongest skills and practices in to the foundation of an optimally functioning system.
• Future Focus: Our work involves not only identifying strengths but also cooperatively envisioning the future. We support organizations in imagining and achieving exceptional success.
