savings to gaining consensus on a project that led to tangible business results to customer satisfaction to financial results and even to shareholder value. SUMMARY Only those who dare to fail greatly, can ever achieve greatly. —Robert F. Kennedy 7 The summary results underscored the critical importance of senior management support. These data did not disregard the crucial role of participants in design- ing the program itself, thus supporting the need for employees at all levels of the organization to be active and equal partners and players in leadership devel- opment and change. All of our data suggest that the more involvement, under- standing, and respect given to the diverse needs and styles of employees at all levels, the lower the resistance to change. In addition, there seems to be 450 BEST PRACTICES IN LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT AND ORGANIZATION CHANGE Table 19.12.

The top-ranking critical success factors included 1. Support and participation of senior management 2. Connecting development and the initiative with the strategic plan 3. Involvement of participants in design 4. Integration with other divisional processes, practices, or systems 5. Pilot program before launch 6. Continuous evaluation 7. Leveraging of internal capacity Having employees become more involved in the development of the initia- tives directly addresses some of the most significant challenges, such as fear of the unknown, aversion to loss of control, and of course aversion to change. Building on existing successful systems helps reduce the sense of mistrust that comes from “initiatives of the month.” There is no doubt that these best practice organizations both endured strug- gles and enjoyed rewards, but what is even more certain is that they will con- tinue to strive toward increasing organizational effectiveness through innovative, results-oriented, and integrated multilayered leadership development and change initiatives. Louis Carter, his co-editors David Ulrich and Marshall Goldsmith, and the Best Practices Institute look forward to continuing their work with the world’s best organizations, which are passionate about positive change and leadership development.

CONCLUSION 451 cart_14399_ch19.qxd 10/19/04 1:20 PM Page 451 cart_14399_ch19.qxd 10/19/04 1:20 PM Page 452 ABOUT THE BEST PRACTICES INSTITUTE T he Best Practices Institute (BPI) and Best Practice Publications were founded by Louis Carter in New York City just after September 11, 2001, while Carter was a graduate student at Columbia University. BPI was formed to bring the best-thought leadership and research in the field of organi- zation and social change to leaders of governments, social systems, nonprofit organizations, and for-profit organizations in an increasingly complex and chaotic world. In order to achieve this goal, Carter—with the help of a team of five interns from Columbia University’s MBA and Social/Organizational Psy- chology program—recruited a panel of twenty-three experts in the field of lead- ership and organization development and eighteen best practice organizations to form the basis of the Change Champion’s Model for meaningful change and to complete the research behind this book. Carter’s Change Champion’s Model is based on the assumption that only through a deep and profound exploration and understanding of one’s own and others’ life experiences and perspectives is true positive social, personal, and organizational change accomplished. Carter’s book with Best Practice Pub- lications and the Best Practices Institute, entitled The Change Champion’s Field- guide, received praise from sources in the People’s Republic of China, India, and America. Vijay Govindarajan, professor of international business and direc- tor of the Center for Global Leadership at the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College, endorsed the book by saying, “The Change Champion’s Fieldguide will become one of the most quoted, referenced, and used business books in the first decade of the 2000s.” Professor Li Jianfeng, Ph.D., of the S S 453 cart_14399_babout.qxd 10/20/04 12:45 PM Page 453 454 ABOUT THE BEST PRACTICES INSTITUTE Renmin University School of Business and Cisun Academy of Management in Beijing translated the book into Mandarin and Cantonese and published the book through Huaxia Publishing House (Beijing) for distribution throughout all provinces of China. Dr. Debi Saini, professor of leadership at the Manage- ment Development Institute in Gurgaon, India, is currently bringing the book and its teachings to the Indian market. Louis Carter’s Best Practices Institute and Change Champion thought leaders include David Cooperrider, Jerry Sternin, David Ulrich, Mary Eggers, Marshall Goldsmith, Dr. John Sullivan, Ryan Matthews, Stu Noble, William Rothwell, and Larry Susskind. The Change Champion’s Model and several BPI work- shops have been presented by Louis Carter in Singapore, Bangkok, Beijing, and at American universities and corporations.
