Having a concrete, centralized repository for how you announce change to your organization will help streamline the org change process.
As a leader, you’ll be tasked to communicate confidential and complex changes to your team, leadership, and partner stakeholders whether they be reorgs, departures, team changes, or manager changes.
The details of any reorg are highly complex, and it’s not easy to juggle business needs and people’s needs throughout the process. Though some changes are painful no matter how you communicate them, you can avoid many mistakes and stress by using a communication plan. That plan, usually a spreadsheet, tracks the stages of your announcement, including owners and dependencies, and will help you tackle broadcasting sensitive announcements more easily.
