		<description>Dr. Lober,
As a consultant to start-ups, it has been my experience that the types of organizational change interventions most typical in small to medium-sized companies SHOULD include the following:

Implementing behavioral changes that (1) empower leadership with strategic planning capabilities and (2) impart the significance of job designing. These changes are important because so often the entrepreneurial leaders of these organizations are "bootstrappers" who wear many hats; ultimately their focus is on multiple goals. In the end, resources are not planned and are not optimized.

Secondary change interventions should include providing communication skills in which leads can illuminate their specialties to clients and translate their weaknesses to stakeholders. In the long-run, this educated tactic boosts confidence, motivation and potential growth for small to medium-sized companies.
