I spent only two days in the office last week. Both days - Monday and Tuesday - were filled up with internal meetings and a half-day event on KRA (together with Datuk Ramlah and another three colleagues). KRA is another form of change management tool/model. The reason why change is needed is always debatable. Resistance however, is always the issue; and more often than not, the resistors are always difficult to be identified within short period of time.
The opportunity to participate in a 3-day course on Change Management and Performance Consulting held recently in PJ Hilton was a valuable one. Prof Rothwell (from the Pennsylvania State University) was the instructor. Well, that was not the first change management course I had attended; I couldnt remember how many. Two or perhaps three of all the courses that I had attended since 2000 were indeed so interesting and fruitful. I remember one workshop - that was in Penang in 2000 on Peter Senghe's model - was quite a good one. Then, another one - a 3-day seminar by Prof Daniel from Harvard University, held in Genting Highlands in 2002 - was also worthwhile. The recent one - by Prof Rothwell - was indeed excellent. Moral of the story: Change is inevitable.
