Change Management Guidance: Establishing a Change Architecture

For us viadoo Change Guides, change management means helping people in a structured way and using professional methods to embrace a planned change and adopt new habits. This requires systematic planning, implementation and monitoring of the change process.

To make your change initiative or transformation succeed – rather than become part of the 70% to 85% of failed change initiatives – you need more than just good intentions. You need a structured approach that addresses both technical and emotional dynamics from the start. Without this foundation, your initiative risks stalling or backfiring.

That’s where viadoo Change Guides support you: with a proven, systematic framework that reduces risks and maximizes the benefits of your change – whether you’re using traditional or agile methods.

By co-creating a tailored change architecture with us, you gain a reliable structure that defines the right processes, tools, and resources for your transformation. You’ll be better equipped to adapt to change quickly, resolve conflicting priorities, and navigate sensitive internal dynamics – all with the guidance of experienced, objective experts.

We want your change to succeed!

Feel free to ask us about your ongoing or planned change initiative. Contact us if you would like to learn more about us and our services. We look forward to hearing from you.

viadoo Change Curve

Let's talk about emotions! Emotional support as a key to success

When change affects your people, emotions run high – and performance can alter according to the so-called change curve. If you’re seeing disengagement, resistance, or even turnover during transformation, it’s likely not due to the technical side, but the emotional journey your teams are going through.

To protect productivity and retain your top performers, you need to focus on social and emotional aspects of change initiatives. You also need intelligent change leadership and a people-first approach to change.

viadoo Change Guides help your executives recognize and respond to the psychological patterns behind resistance, uncertainty, and fear. We equip you to actively engage teams, foster buy-in, and lead through change with empathy. That’s how you turn emotional reactions into emotional commitment – and safeguard your transformation from within.

viadoo's Change Management Framework

How we usually shift from present state to future state

As a leading service provider for planning and successfully managing change initiatives we always take an iterative and agile approach. Nevertheless, we are guided by the clear structure of our integrated four-phase model that includes analysis, conception and realization (in accordance with ACMP® Standard for Change Management© and German DIN SPEC 91405). Our framework helps to organize the development in its sub-processes, to record the associated tasks and to assign suitable methods and tools.

How you benefit from our viadoo Change Integral

Thanks to this analytical procedure and holistic approach, we are able to flatten the classic change curve (see viadoo Change Integral) and to reduce both the usual productivity losses and the unwanted fluctuations. In the end, our services will help you achieve your transformation faster, more cost-effectively and with fewer losses of high-performing employees.

viadoo's Four-Phase Model

Your most important advantages at a glance

1. Your chances of success increase to 95%

For years, only 15% to 30% of all projects have been successful. However, if you invest in change management from the outset, alongside project management, you can achieve a 95% chance of success.

2. Your skilled workers stay on board

Many skilled workers leave companies during change processes. And it’s usually the best ones who go. However, if you convince your experts of the change, motivate them, and build trust, you will keep them.

3. You reduce loss of productivity

In most change initiatives, performance of employees declines first, followed by organisation’s productivity. By up to a quarter. Those who manage their change professionally avoid these losses.

4. You gaining people's acceptance & trust

Those who take a strategic approach to change communication ensure transparency, promote acceptance, and strengthen employees’ trust in change. It also eases the commitment of middle management.

5. You have a motivated project team in place

Thanks to careful preparation (viadoo’s 4-Phase Model), everyone in the project team knows the shared vision, the reasons for the necessary change, their tasks, and their sponsors (!). This creates motivation for the work.

6. Your executives build change competence

Investing in professional change management automatically trains your managers in this discipline. At the same time, a network of change agents is created so that future changes are also successful.

Benefits of an External Change Manager

When you’re facing a complex transformation, tensions between departments, unclear priorities, or internal politics can easily derail progress. That’s why bringing in an objective, independent, experienced, neutral perspective can make all the difference.
viadoo’s interim change managers help you cut through internal noise, spot hidden risks early, and manage sensitive issues before they escalate (e.g. with the work council). We work alongside your team to ensure alignment and guide your change smoothly from planning to implementation.
With viadoo, you gain a focused, time-efficient approach that keeps your transformation on schedule and within budget. You also avoid the cost and delay of hiring permanent staff, while freeing your internal teams to focus on what they do best.
Whether you need additional capacity or temporary leadership, viadoo brings the expertise, structure, and stability to help your change succeed without draining your internal resources.
