"Shake the Tree" Strategy

When we start a new projects or want to revamp a existing project we follow the "Shake the Tree" strategy. People who have been working in your organization who do not change who doesn't like change - but change is what you need to do you can apply this strategy. 

  • Step 1: Create a state of restlessness and chaos
  • Step 2: People who do not like change will resist it, try to show you are with them but in reality try to create a scenario where they leave your organization
  • Step 3: There might be people who have underwent similar exercise - change their vertical. 


Keep in mind when you are trying to upgrade or improve the working environment of your organization and implementing new methodology its always good to have seniors with you who can work with you, a group of people who are not people person will fall and hence you will have an organization where employee turnover can increase. A process has to be created to help transition process. However it can cause a whole mess of work trying to determine what it is the process is doing, what Business Rules it was supposed to be following and are those rules still applicable today.
