Strategic thinking allows you to take a step back and look at the big picture. It involves analysing and evaluating a situation in order to make informed decisions about the future. When you think strategically, you're thinking critically about the long-term implications of different options and developing a plan that takes those implications into account.
So, why is it important for change managers?
Well, when you're tasked with implementing major organisational changes, you need to be able to anticipate potential roadblocks and prepare for them in advance. You also need to be able to identify opportunities for improvement and develop plans to take advantage of them.
Without strategic thinking, change managers may find it difficult to achieve their goals and meet the expectations of stakeholders. You might end up running into unexpected challenges or missing out on opportunities that could have been leveraged with a bit of foresight.
In today’s episode, I'm gonna share how you can do strategic thinking in a really visible way as a change manager. Strategic thinking is a skill like any other - it can be practised and improved with focus and dedication.
I’ll explore three really useful activities that you can start using today to incorporate more strategic thinking into your change management work. I’ll also go through the difference between a professional and an amateur that I frequently observe in the organisational change management space and the really interesting concept of second order thinking.
We’ll look how you can improve your second ordering thinking through:
- Scenario planning
- Red teaming
- Pre-mortem analysis
