Project Management
As your business evolves, so does the complexity of your organizational initiatives. Internal teams may face multiple projects and priorities, each with varying goals, timelines, budgets, requirements, geographies, resource needs and more. Without the proper structure or support in place, juggling these projects effectively becomes extremely challenging, often leading to decreased project success, overextended budgets and reduced overall business performance.

Change Management
While many firms apply a one-size-fits-all approach to Change Management, we understand that solutions and strategies must be tailored to meet the unique requirements, culture, environment and needs of your organization. With an average of 20 years of experience in business, technology, change management and process efficiency, our senior consultants understand what it takes to run a business and successfully implement change to meet business goals. Our approach strives to achieve strategy alignment among people, process and technology to maintain organizational balance and ensure change management initiatives have lasting results.
Organizational Change Management is a complex process that requires careful planning and execution. FourthSquare’s Change Management strategy promotes ongoing employee engagement and tailored change management plans to deliver long-term results. Whatever your business transformation, we work collaboratively with your project teams, sponsors and stakeholders to help minimize operational disruptions and maximize change value.
FourthSquare Change management Process consists of the below:
We work with you to understand your business goals, culture and the impact that the change will have on your organization. During our OCM Assessment, we focus on helping your business adapt to organizational changes through tailored strategy, training, communication and counsel. This includes identifying organizational needs, building out the change management strategy, and planning the transition.
As your partner, we work with you to implement effective engagement strategies that will align processes, plans and effective communication to ensure your transition goes smoothly. We focus on organizational alignment, implementing effective processes, engaging employees and monitoring the progress.
One of the most common reasons transformations fail is because of lack of reinforcement. During the phase, we work with you for transitional support to help your implementation, with change stabilization and optimizing results to ensure your organization is set-up for long-term success.
