AFTER THOUGHT : Challenges of change management

We are about to undergo a major change process in our company. I have worked for other organisations during similar changes and always end up thinking there must be a better way of doing it. What are your thoughts on change management? The biggest issue for implementation is getting people to accept and go with the required changes. To do this they need to understand why the change is needed, how it will be implemented, what progress is being made, and, later, whether it actually worked.
