Organizations cannot shy away from change anymore; as the biggest drawback for companies to grow in this era, is change. When one gets comfortable with the current processes, technologies, products, mode of working, it\u2019s human nature to get used to following a routine. Change is something that completely chaotically changes routine; while providing better opportunities. At a governance level, organizations that fail to see change as a requirement fails.<\/p>\n<p class=\"para_text\">In general, culture, thinking and strategy always comes from a top-bottom approach. This means that decisions, ideology, innovating thinking, the vision comes from the top tiers and flows into the middle tiers and into the lower tiers. As seen in the past, companies that have failed to adapt to change at the right time, failing to see the future\u2014Kodak, Nokia, have been overtaken.<\/p>\n<p class=\"para_text\">In this ever-changing landscape, we as businesses need to realize that change comes in many forms\u2014technology, new product development, digitalization, communication and many more. Let\u2019s look at these four change categories.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"para_text\">\n<li><b>Change in Technology<\/b> if not addressed, will always see you a step behind the game. If technology enables a manufacturing organization to provide X amount of output and doesn\u2019t see the opportunity to invest in a technology which enable for an output of X + 10 in a day, they fail to gain an output of 10 x 360 output a year. Another example we see today is the global race of Telco\u2019s from 4G to 5G.<\/li>\n<li><b>Change in New Product Development<\/b> if not addressed and a product doesn\u2019t evolve, a competitor would storm in and take over the market. Yahoo, Motorola and BlackBerry are few notable global examples.<\/li>\n<li><b>Change to Digitalization<\/b> has enabled sustainable governance and enabled businesses opting for artificial intelligence to make life easy and lower costs; which are enabled only due to opting for change.<\/li>\n<li><b>Change in Communication<\/b> has seen that the good old ways of communicating were not the cheapest media. However, now with programmatic marketing and digital advertising, reaching the exact people you want is much easier. This is due to the change in communication.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"para_text\">Corporates that have invested on BoardPAC for governance, and BoardPAC as a solution to the governance platform for meetings, have now been extended in organizations to their middle tiers, in addition to the top tiers, for executive meetings. This is a result of realizing the importance of sustainable governance, instant communication, instant approvals, paperless solutions, easy searching and archiving, and other features that enable them to keep up with the pace of global digitization. It\u2019s only with time can we say how digitalization of meetings can play a bigger role in the long run across the platform of organizations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"para_text\">Change requires effort, time and resources. If an organization\u2019s goals seem to be headed in a direction that is going in the right path, tomorrow when you wake up, while that goal still exists, your right direction ideally may be a direction that you didn\u2019t perceive before. The path to this new direction may have a shorter, more effective route. The route you currently are taking may not be the best route in the longer run. This is like getting onto a highway. The option may be a bit costly with a toll fee, but your destination is reached much more efficiently.<\/p>\n<p class=\"para_text\">Change is a highway. Get on to it or lose to your competition.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"para_text\">LinkedIn: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/pulse\/adapting-your-board-inevitablechange-sarath-perera\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/pulse\/adapting-your-board-inevitablechange-sarath-perera\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":456,"template":"","class_list":["post-455","blogs","type-blogs","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.5 (Yoast SEO v27.2) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Adapting your board to the inevitable\u2014change - BoardPAC<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Change is inevitable.
