Change Management Consulting & Training
Change Management Workshops
Lyon Change Consulting provides workshops for your senior leaders, managers and
supervisors. We work with senior leaders and project managers to prepare for change,
manage change and reinforce change. Managers and supervisors are trained and coached
to become agents of change—guiding the front lines from the present state to a desired
future state. Managers and supervisors are key to gaining support during times of change.
Consulting Services
We are Prosci® certi�ied change management practitioners. We assess for key insights
and apply best practices in order to raise awareness and build organization-wide desire
to embrace the new way. Organization-wide change considers the people responsible for
change, the processes that are changing or that have to be considered, and the culture.
While it’s better to start early, during the planning phase, change management may be
begin during implementation to increase the odds of the culture and people embracing
the new way. The practice of change management becomes crucial if organization-wide
support is needed for a successful change. This could be as large as a company merger, or
as simple as reviving a policy that was established but never embraced.
Transformational Leadership
Organizations may be highly participative, stagnating with complacency; or they may be
very transactional, with a workforce that ends up experiencing chaos when the existing
processes and structure they know so well begins to change, and their experience loses
relevance.
We tailor our workshops, training and coaching style to create transformational
environments, designed to engage with individuals. Organizations that successfully
implement a change in structure, policy or behaviors may wind up seeing the culture
slowly resorting back to the old way. Change management is there to prevent old
behaviors from reemerging and dissolving the change initative down the road.

Aligning the Organization for Diversity & Inclusion
Diversity & Inclusion
Af�irmative action, executive orders, media and public relations—everything is changing
rapidly along with the market and technology. With millennials entering the workforce
and Gen-Z on the way, employees will be expecting diverse and inclusive environments.
They will also be expecting diverse leadership. While the organization may have the right
policies in place now, if leadership and the culture isn’t ready, there will be trouble ahead.
Applying Change Management
Lyon Change Consulting has been asked to solve a common business problem. While the
processes, policies and the staples of employee resource groups may be in place,
organizational leaders are struggling to make diverse and inclusive workforces a reality.
Diversity-related issues are typically deferred to human resources. While this may be an
important step for the organization, HR professionals often struggle with a lack of
objectivity and transparency with employees. We work with senior leaders to gather
objective feedback for the organization by carefully investigating each environment.
Our team �inds the weak spots within the organization, where diversity of thought and
individuals are not embraced or engaged. We provide coaching and workshops to raise
awareness of the value of diversity of thought. We work to embed the values of diversity
and inclusion into the culture. If environments aren’t embracing diversity policies and
diversity of thought, we may recommend change management.
Solving The Employee Resource Group Problem
Major organizations have employee resource groups (ERGs) for veterans, disabled,
women, LGBT and many other employee demographics. However, once those groups are
in place, they wind up under-funded due to a lack of measurable ROI, and only a handful
of ERG leaders and Diversity & Inclusion professionals bene�it from the offer of visibility.
Lyon Change Consulting dedicated 18 months researching the issue. We consult on how
to create new opportunities for diverse employees, while leveraging these groups to add
greater value to the organization. This includes workshops for employee resource groups.
