Change Management

DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT TAKES TO EFECTIVELY MANAGE THE ORGANIZATION-WIDE CHANGES THAT COME WITH A REBRAND?

Brand change doesn’t just affect your marketing team — it affects every part of your business. Throughout the process of rebrand implementation, you need your entire workforce to drive your business forward in healthy and productive ways. You simply can’t afford the churn, disruption, noise, lack of productivity, and pain that comes from no or ineffective change management. 

BrandActive’s team of change management experts can help.

We know how to implement a structured, thoughtful approach to change — from the earliest stages of conception and preparation all the way through to implementation and adoption. Even more importantly, we know how to build a change strategy and manage change through the lens of rebrand implementation, which in itself requires unique expertise. 

No two organizations are exactly alike. That’s why we’ll customize your change management plan — and the services we recommend — depending on where you are in the rebrand and/or brand operationalization process. 

Our organizational change management services include:

STAKEHOLDER ANALYSIS

  • Identify, assess, and prioritize the key individuals who will be affected by the organizational change
