The "J-Curve" of change is a helpful concept when thinking about the trajectory of a change initiative. Leaders assume that they will see early results from the implementation of change but performance often gets worse before it gets better.
There are many reasons for it; disruption to existing systems, people fearful of & getting used to new ways of working; it's a learning curve for the system.
One of the worst things that happens as a result of the J-Curve is "leadership tampering": leaders impatient for results who start to fiddle with the new system before new arrangements get a chance to work through.
There are many things we can do to reduce the impact of the J-Curve:
1) Stay focused on shared purpose & values, giving people the confidence to move towards a different future that is more compelling than the status quo
2) Anticipate that an "implementation lag" may happen and set expectations based on that
3) Provide support - technical, emotional, learning
4) Involve everyone in the change process, so it is done "with" people, not "to" them
5) Adjust, based on learning & feedback, through small test of change
This article is from @dviney who developed the concept of the J-Curve: https://t.co/vu4gwzD0NG.

Feeling very proud of our team for pulling together our Respiratory SLT website

Just found out that over the last year the ILO page alone has had over 16,500 views… and rated 9.7/10🤩

This certainly highlights a demand for Respiratory SLT information
