What resilience assessment tools can you use to engage employees during culture change?

Culture change is a complex and challenging process that requires employees to adapt to new ways of thinking, behaving, and working. To support and engage employees during culture change, you need to assess their resilience, or their ability to cope with stress, uncertainty, and change. Resilience assessment tools can help you measure and improve the resilience of your employees, teams, and organization. In this article, you will learn about some of the resilience assessment tools that you can use to engage employees during culture change.

1 Why resilience matters

Resilience is not just a personal trait, but a dynamic process that involves cognitive, emotional, and behavioral responses to adversity. Resilience can help employees overcome the challenges and risks of culture change, such as resistance, anxiety, confusion, and burnout. Resilience can also enhance the benefits and opportunities of culture change, such as innovation, learning, collaboration, and growth. By assessing and developing resilience, you can foster a positive and productive culture change.

My first impression is that Resilience has a very broad scope, what is being discussed in this article is a tiny portion of that i.e. culture change. Resilience is a journey of transformation and culture (or change of culture) plays a big role. Also, I will focus on 'employee engagement' for the rest of discussions.

2 How to assess resilience

Assessing resilience can be done in various ways, depending on your goals, resources, and context. Self-report questionnaires, interviews, observations, or psychometric tests can be used to measure the resilience of individuals, teams, or organizations. For example, the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) is a 25-item questionnaire that evaluates personal competence, trust in one's instincts, positive acceptance of change, control, and spiritual influences. The Resilience at Work (RAW) Scale is a 22-item questionnaire that assesses the resilience of employees based on seven factors. Additionally, the Team Resilience Assessment Method (TRAM) uses a combination of surveys, interviews, and observations to measure the resilience of teams based on four dimensions. Lastly, the Organizational Resilience Framework (ORF) evaluates the resilience of organizations based on 13 indicators.

To engage employees in a change, the simplest way is to involve them - make them understand why that change is important and is being undertaken. If your employees understand how this cultural change is linked with the organisation's objectives (more specifically with their objectives - the 'salary') they will happily embrace the change. And a happy employee is a more productive employee!

3 How to use resilience assessment tools

Resilience assessment tools can help you engage employees during culture change by providing them with feedback, insights, and recommendations on how to improve their resilience. Such tools can be used to identify strengths and weaknesses of employees, teams, and organizations in terms of resilience, create action plans and interventions to enhance resilience and address any gaps or challenges that may impede the culture change process. Furthermore, these tools can be used to track progress and adjust initiatives as needed, as well as recognize achievements and successes in terms of resilience and culture change.

Again, my focus is on 'employee engagement assessment'. The simplest tool is NPS where only one question needs to be asked. For those who give you a low rating on NPS - followup questions what/ why/ how can be asked to probe more to get insights and draw improvement plans.
