   Applying the Managed Change™ Approach in the Global Environment If the global strategies for your change appear to be the same as your local organization, be cautious. Time and again, LaMarsh & Associates is reminded that it takes additional effort to understand the global population and the issues that may trigger resistance for them. The incremental investment in a set of eyes and ears accustomed to and trusted by the local employees will prove invaluable. Leverage the people who work in the organization; they know the challenges to Sponsorship, communication and to change in general. They can assist you in evaluating your change approach and help you to communicate with people who are not like you. Additional resources about cultural differences around the world Remember, a project named "A Okay" that uses a common American hand signal as a graphic on an internal web site may resonate well with American audiences. However, a group of employees in Brazil, which considers that same hand signal offensive, may feel differently. The following web sites may help you understand some of the unique considerations and differences to factor into how you implement change in a global organization.
