The desired state explains the goal of a change – it is where we want to be when the change is complete. If leaders don’t agree on the desired state or employees don’t understand the goals, then there is a disconnect that can risk the entire success of the change.
By clearly identifying the desired state, it becomes clear what is currently not working and the gap between now and what we want to achieve.
Best of all, a defined desired state shows us what success will look like. As we near completion of a change, we can compare our progress to this definition and have evidence that we were successful or not.
A desired state sets the foundation for measuring and monitoring the progress of a change.
