Transformation is not just big change

When did transformation become “big change”?

I’m not sure whether it was change managers trying to make their resumé look good or whether there was something else at play.

Regardless, let us be very clear … transformation is SO much more than big change.

Consider these definitions:

Change – to make something different

Transformation – to change something completely – changing its function, making it operate or exist in a totally different way.

So, please understand and acknowledge the difference. Transformation will have more significant outcomes and it will require significantly more effort, time and energy. Change sometimes doesn’t need any effort – it just happens.

Here’s how we explain the difference – painting the wall of a meeting room green is change. Converting the meeting room into a cafe is transformation.
