Transforming Change Into Opportunity
Change shouldn’t be a dirty word. It should be something your team seeks out as a step toward a greater future. That’s not often the case.
At Bartell, we recognize that the most crucial element of any change initiative is the people involved. By focusing on the culture, communication, and commitment around the change, we can help you implement or rejuvenate even the most challenging change efforts.
Our approach ensures that your team sees change as an opportunity for growth and progress, leading to a more successful and sustainable transformation.
How We Help
Prepare the Foundation for Success
Preparing for change involves developing detailed and realistic plans that anticipate potential challenges. The best approach involves thorough analysis and communication to ensure all aspects of the transition are covered.
We’ll help you understand the critical elements related to your organization’s people needs, ensuring a smooth and effective transition. By identifying potential obstacles early, contingency plans can be developed that minimize disruptions and keep the change process on track.
Achieve Commitment Across Levels
Commitment is crucial in successful change management, and Bartell can help craft a culture of change ownership and responsibility.
It’s critical to engage change agents and recipients at all organizational levels, ensuring that employees are not passive observers but active participants in the change process. Through change workshops and support, we help individuals understand their roles in the process and inspire them to commit fully to the new direction.
Ensure Clear and Consistant Communication
Clear and consistent communication is the backbone of any successful change initiative. At Bartell, we specialize in instilling efficient and effective communication skills at all levels, helping keep everyone informed and engaged.
By assessing current communication conditions and “dead zones,” while also developing communication skills, we can help enhance the success and value creation of change.
Ensure Alignment and Cohesion
Aligning leadership and employees is essential for overcoming resistance and achieving cohesive progress. Bartell works closely with both leaders and team members to ensure everyone is on the same page.
We facilitate alignment sessions that address concerns, clarify expectations, and build a unified vision. We help bridge gaps and create a shared commitment to the change objectives by fostering a collaborative environment.
Document and Sustain Success
Measuring the success and impact of change initiatives is vital for continuous improvement. Bartell establishes robust metrics and feedback mechanisms to assess progress and outcomes.
We can help you develop people-oriented key performance indicators, conduct regular surveys, and analyze data to gauge the effectiveness of the change. This allows you to make informed adjustments and celebrate successes, ensuring that the change delivers the intended benefits and drives sustained growth.
“Bartell made the difference between my desire for Restek to function as a team versus actually becoming a team. Thanks to the Bartell organization, Restek has become a company where every employee thinks and functions as if they are owners. Bartell helped every Restek employee buy into the vision because they helped coach our management team on how to communicate the vision.”

Change Happens Through People
Focus on the human side of change
The success of any change initiative hinges on the people involved. Effective change management starts not with “what” is being changed but “who” – recognizing and addressing the human element.
By using individual and team assessments, we identify strengths and weaknesses, enabling us to tailor our training and development programs to your unique situation. This targeted approach fosters a supportive environment where your team can thrive, leading to smoother transitions and more sustainable change.
By focusing on the people side of business, we help you create value and achieve lasting success.
Culture and Environment
Creating the right culture is essential for successful change management. We partner with you to cultivate an environment that supports and accelerates change.
Through comprehensive organizational assessments, we identify cultural strengths and areas for improvement – helping you build a culture that embraces change and fosters innovation. By aligning your organizational values and behaviors with your strategic goals, we ensure that your team is prepared to navigate change effectively.
Our focus on culture and environment helps you build a resilient organization capable of adapting and thriving in any landscape.
Change Leadership
Strong leadership is crucial for guiding your organization through change. By ensuring you have the right leaders in place to spearhead your change initiatives we equip your change process for success.
From our leadership development programs designed to equip your leaders with the skills and insights they need to inspire your team, to thorough leadership assessments to identify potential gaps that could derail change success, our services support you in building the leadership team that can effectively drive change and foster a unified, motivated workforce.
With our expertise, you can have confidence that your leaders can shepherd your organization through any transition.
