Case Studies
-
Working in a consultancy capacity as Transformation Director, Holly's expertise was sought to mobilise the programme and design the roadmap to merger of two prestigious London Higher Education Institutions. The merger will see the new University being one of the largest institutions in London.
Holly was responsible for evolving and mobilising the programme from business case stage into an appropriately structured and governed transformation programme which involved TUPE of staff into the new institution, legal and governance considerations and significant organisational design.
This role required significant stakeholder management in a tenuous and culturally sensitive time, Holly worked closely with the Councils and senior leadership of both institutions, established the Programme Management Office function which included management of a team from one of the Big Five consultancy firms.
-
Holly was engaged as Change Lead on a large transformation programme of a prestigious listed building in London which was to house up to 600 stakeholders across multiple working environments. The new space required significant shifts in ways of working for most staff, and wasn't perceived as popular across all stakeholder groups. Holly designed and delivered the change management approach which included significant stakeholder engagement in the design of the new spaces, and convened leadership and change advocate groups to build consensus and understanding around the changes. Holly ensured that the users of the new spaces were at the heart of the change management approach as she believes that a change is only as successful as those impacted perceive it to be!
-
Holly was engaged on an organisation-wide change programme which was ambitious in scope as it sought to update it member offer, it's IT capability and fully renovate and refurbish its listed office building across a two year programme of transformation. As Change Lead, Holly worked alongside Organisational Development colleagues to understand the current maturity of the organisation against where it needed to be at the end of the programme, and created a learning pathway which targeted all staff to close the gap. As an experienced facilitator, Holly delivered most of the training on the pathway and created the change management toolkit for senior leaders and managers to enable them to successfully lead and support their teams through the change.
All participants reported receiving value from the learning pathway, and felt more confident and resilient around the changes impacting all areas of their working life.
