Complex Management training in La Chaux-de-Fonds · canton of NeuchâtelWatch note — method: structuring a complex management initiative in La Chaux-de-Fonds over 90 days

Available studies converge on some points and diverge on others. A careful reading invites us to define the managerial problem more precisely rather than search for a recipe. A complex management transformation doesn't play out in two days or two years. Ninety days is the window in which an observable, measurable change can be produced without exhausting the organisation. Here is the sequenced method we use in La Chaux-de-Fonds in the canton of Neuchâtel.

Days 1-15: diagnosis and framing

Five internal interviews, two field observations, one document review. Goal: produce a one-page framing that precisely names the target behaviour, the linked business stake and the responsible sponsor. Without this document, what follows drifts. The literature calls this context the “transfer climate”: the environment may support, neutralise or discourage the learned behaviour.

Days 16-30: sponsor and collective alignment

The sponsor publicly states the stake to the team. Short (20 minutes) but the moment that legitimises everything that follows. We systematically prepare it together — message, tone, formulation of expectations.

Days 31-60: guided practice

Two 4-hour collective workshops three weeks apart, complemented by individual coaching for key profiles. The phase where complex management shifts from declared to practised.

Days 61-80: anchoring through rituals

We install the new behaviours into existing rituals: weekly team review, one-to-ones, steering committee. No new meeting — we transform meetings that already exist. That's what makes the change sustainable. (our executive and employee training programmes)

Days 81-90: impact review

Honest measurement: follow-up interviews, field observation, business indicators. We separate what genuinely changed from what stayed declarative. This review produces the next decision: extend, deepen, or stop.

A closing note, without ceremony

Science gives directions, not recipes. The rest — dosage, timing, courage — remains a craft. It is the one we practise.
