Welcome to PAR International Consulting
Change is hard. We can help.
If your change initiatives don’t leave your customers, employees, or members smiling, you need help from PAR International Consulting, LLC!
Why Choose Us?
Ask yourself the following questions:
- Do you have a project that impacts the people in your organization?
- Do you need them to react or respond differently?
- Are there behaviors you need them to start, stop or continue?
- Are they learning a new system or applying new skills?
If you can answer yes to any of these questions, then you need a solid change management plan and process to ensure successful adoption of your project. Even the most technically sound projects can fail if the people are not taken care of. People’s acceptance of (or resistance to) the changes associated with your project will make (or break) your project’s desired outcomes. That’s where PAR International Consulting’s small business consulting services can help!
Our Services
Our strength is small business consulting services through full lifecycle change leadership starting with discovery/planning and continuing through implementation and reinforcement. We use a change management process that aligns easily with typical project management phases and deliverables. Our small business consulting services strategy ensures the people are engaged in the change process and have buy-in to the project outcomes, thereby increasing the success of the project. Our goal is to achieve maximum small business value with minimal operational impact, where the change becomes a “non-event” and no longer interferes with the project objectives.

Organizations don’t change. People do. If you force change on people, you get resistance. Without proper change management, people get left behind in the change process, which contributes to project failures. In order to achieve successful small business outcomes, you need to focus on the needs of the people who are impacted by your changes, and guide them skillfully through the change.
Our motto is to involve impacted people early and often. Be transparent and keep communication lines open to avoid surprises. Include impacted people in discovery and solutioning activities, using surveys, focus groups, job shadowing, informational interviews, brainstorming, etc. to ensure their voices are heard. And don’t forget to include people in your success stories as well as reward and recognize them for their accomplishments in executing your change initiative.
To ensure the highest level of success, you should engage a change management specialist in the planning phase of the project. You will save yourself time and money by avoiding rework if you identify and account for key change components during the planning phase. The later you wait in the project, the more costly it becomes to incorporate change.
The change management plan is a comprehensive strategy for ensuring that each stakeholder group is positively impacted by the change initiative. Key components of the change management plan include: communications (and marketing) plan, training plan, reinforcement plan, and success metrics.
