three techniques that the Change Champions can use when seeking to build collaborative relationships

with the employees of J.G.C. Ltd. and with the Consultants, based on Yukl's 2012 framework:

1. Active Listening: Change Champions can employ active listening techniques to build collaborative
relationships. This involves giving their full attention to employees and consultants,
demonstrating empathy, and seeking to understand their concerns and perspectives. By actively
listening, the Change Champions can create an environment where individuals feel valued and
heard, fostering trust and open communication.

2. Building Trust: Trust is a vital element in building collaborative relationships. Change Champions
can employ techniques such as being reliable, consistent, and transparent in their actions and
communications. They can also demonstrate competence by sharing their expertise and
knowledge, and by delivering on their commitments. By building trust, Change Champions can
establish credibility and encourage others to actively engage and participate in the restructuring
process.

3. Facilitating Collaboration: Change Champions can employ techniques that encourage


collaboration and teamwork. They can create platforms for employees and consultants to share
ideas, insights, and concerns openly. They can facilitate group discussions, workshops, or
brainstorming sessions to encourage diverse perspectives and generate innovative solutions. By
fostering collaboration, the Change Champions can enhance engagement and ownership among
the stakeholders involved, leading to a more successful restructuring process.

Additionally, the Change Champions can act as bridges between different stakeholder groups. They can
facilitate communication and information sharing between the employees, consultants, and O.G.B. Ltd.
This can help in aligning expectations, addressing concerns, and ensuring that everyone is working
towards the common goal of a successful restructuring.

By utilizing these techniques, the Change Champions can cultivate a collaborative and supportive
environment, where all stakeholders feel engaged, valued, and empowered throughout the restructuring
process. This can enhance the likelihood of successful outcomes and promote a positive organizational
culture during times of change.
