What They Say About the Methodology

  • "After comparing various change management methods in search of a simple, pragmatic model, I identified the Wheel of Change as the one closest to my real-world experience.

    I took a chance and registered for the training after simply watching Mr. Wellhoff in a YouTube video to validate my initial impression. From the very first minutes of the session, I was convinced because the model truly 'holds its own.'

    Both the Wheel of Change and the facilitation are built and delivered by two trainers who possess solid, complementary experience in corporate change management. Plenty of concrete examples bring substance and meaning to the model. Plus, I spent a very enjoyable day in their company, and the group of participants was fantastic. I want more! When is the sequel?"

    V.W. - Change Management Coach & Consultant

  • "An excellent opportunity to review or discover simple elements to implement for project management and change support. In fact, I took advantage of it to pass down the main steps to my marketing teams over eight 1-hour sessions, as change management is a real daily challenge for them."   Deputy Marketing Director

  • "I found your seminar highly interesting. Having previously had a disappointing experience with change management, this training allowed me to view things from a fresh perspective." A.P Production Manager

  • "I would like to congratulate you on the quality of the 'Change Management' seminar I recently attended. In my line of work, I frequently observe just how difficult change is to implement within companies.

    During your training, I saw that you pinpointed—with absolute precision—the fundamental reasons why change initiatives are so often slowed down or completely halted. I also appreciated that you offer a method, or rather a true process, to ensure that change is carried through to completion.

    Thank you sincerely for this enlightenment, which has provided me with powerful tools to more easily support my clients in their future change initiatives."

    P.S. General Manager

  • "Our company is the in-house advertising agency for a media group. The evolution of our industry forced us to implement a CRM to better manage our clients while maintaining a global view of our operations. While we had already chosen our software vendors and the integration partner to configure it, there remained a huge unknown that could cause the entire project to fail.

    Having a good system is great... but using it is better. Getting every employee to adopt it was the ideal goal. However, this was our greatest risk. Our workforce is characterized by:

    - A large number of older workers with high corporate tenure and deeply anchored habits;

    - Wide diversity in educational backgrounds (very few studied the same things);

    - Potential intergenerational conflict with newcomers (the famous Gen Y, with their unique demands, desires, and expectations).

    Like all companies, our sector is feeling the effects of economic shifts, but we must also face a structural crisis that requires us to modify our product offerings. In such a context, introducing a new tool that requires total staff adoption to succeed was a monumental challenge! Fortunately, we were aware of this and researched change management heavily. We knew that implementing this CRM would require significant reorganization, alongside a major effort to persuade teams of the relevance of our choices.

    We turned to Key Partners to assist us in this vital mission. Thanks to their expertise, they mapped out the different stages we would—and must—go through, showed us how to avoid common pitfalls, and ultimately handled the concrete CRM training for our entire staff. We achieved a result we never thought would come so easily. All of our sales and administrative teams are actively using the tool, and they are even requesting new features to help them do their jobs better. We completed this project right on schedule.

    Phenomenal work!"

  • "You have formalized something that many consultants, including myself, were doing partially without ever having the full picture. The lack of this comprehensive overview and formalization used to cause me frustration, oversights, and failures. This Wheel of Change is an incredibly valuable, highly practical tool!"
