  • Leveraging organizational behavior

  • Corporate Action Program (CAP)
People resist change. Yet in an age of takeovers, mergers and acquisitions, corporations must master how to change in order to survive. The CAP is an action-orientated program that facilitates managerial change. It mobilizes top management and key managers (down the line) around strategic objectives. The CAP process focuses on the managerial changes that a corporation and its managers need to achieve in order to succeed.

The program takes place in three phases. The first phase targets the top management team. In the next phases, the top managers launch a series of projects designed to bring all managers on board. Task forces within each level of management select these projects. Their goal is to energize the new direction in which the organization is moving. The content and length of a CAP differs from company to company, but its structure follows the same logical sequence and rigorous methodology.
