Change management is difficult. In a 2016 survey, 96% of businesses<\/a> were trying some kind of business transformation.

If you want to change business operations, you have to know where your business is going.<\/p>\n The job of business operations is to support the vision and goals of the business. Think of it as setting a goal and aligning tasks and actions that align with it.<\/p>\n You\u2019re applying the same method on a much larger scale.<\/p>\n This is a great time to review your business goals and reassess the direction of the business. Be sure to every part of your business plan.<\/p>\n Update your plan to account for changes in the marketplace and the economy.<\/p>\n A business operations framework gives each member of your team a clearly defined role and set of responsibilities. It takes your business strategies and turns them into policies and standard operating procedures.<\/p>\n It\u2019s a point of reference for your entire organization to follow. It ensures that your business operations are efficient and measured.<\/p>\n There are several business operations frameworks that you can implement in your business. eTom is a telecommunications framework that focuses on the customer experience.<\/p>\n SCOR is a framework created by the Supply Chain Council. This is used to manage the various aspects of the supply chain, from planning to returning.<\/p>\n One framework that gets overlooked is the Lean Six Sigma Model. It\u2019s known as a project management method, but according to The Lean Six Sigma Company<\/a>, it\u2019s applied to organizational improvement as well.<\/p>\n Be sure to choose a framework that\u2019s appropriate for your organization. You\u2019ll then need to train your employees on the new framework.<\/p>\n Change management isn\u2019t a matter of selecting a framework and moving on. You have to ensure that each part of business operations operates efficiently.<\/p>\n You need to tie change management to results. Create a set of key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure success. That lets you know if your efforts are successful or if you need to make more adjustments. \u00a0<\/p>\n Some common operations KPIs are employee turnover and cash flow.<\/p>\n Business operations change doesn\u2019t happen in a week.
