One of the biggest things you can do when major changes in the business are happening is to be present as a leader. That means being with the team, participating in the change process, and being visible and available. These help you become transparent, allow you to communicate frequently to address any concerns, and also allow team members to be heard. Nothing kills morale than making a change and leadership is not present. Lastly, great leaders and coaches learn how to celebrate wins during these times. Make the positive changes be heard by celebrating in a way that resonates with your team! Go have some fun when you’re winning!

Generally changes are top down directives and the team follows, i.e. change is imposed. Unless the team accepts the change and the difference it will create for them and the ultimate customer, be it internal or external, motivating the entire team is always a challenge. So communication is the key ... to manifest the change as a team initiative rather than a management task, thats what we aim for.
