QUESTION7: Change Management and Monitoring Cycle (AC4.2 – AC4.3)

The application of various steps taken for the improvement of the organisation had led to various changes in the organisation. Some of the changes that appeared in the organisation are as follows:

 

• Increase in quality of the services: With the implementation of various steps discussed above, the quality of the services provided have increased and the organisation is providing better customer satisfaction (Bridge and O’Neill,  2012).

• Attracting more customer: With better quality of services and along with reasonable price the organisation have attracted more customers.

• Moving ahead of the competitors: By providing better quality services and increase in the number of customers had made the organisation ahead of their competitors.

 

With the implementation of various steps and making a change in the organisation, it may face various risk which are as follows:

Wrong study of customer needs and behaviour may lead to decrease in the number of customers leading to less profits and a downfall in the competitive market(Holmes and Schaper, 2018).

With the process of increasing the quality of services and providing reasonable prices may sometime lead to low or no profits for the organisation. Lower profits will result in less revenue and thus the organisation won’t be able to improve its equipment and can’t invest in further projects (Bourbonnais, et. al., 2018).

For the successful running of the organisation and remove failure, the management needs to take actions for successfully managing the changes. For the purpose of ensuring their effectiveness the changes needs to be monitored by the management which can be done by regularly monitoring, identifying the changes, gathering data for evaluation, monitoring and managing risks, continuous review.
