The company Performance in People Ltd. has current objectives of providing best in-class services to customers.

This implies any sort of loop hole in implementation of changes can bring in an adverse impact over these stakeholders and shareholders. Hence, this evaluation process must be conducted.

An overall positive impact shall be experienced by the company when these changes are introduced and implemented effectively.
The positive impact of Change: Change is an unavoidable part in businesses. Changes are not always accepted openly as there is hesitation to accept the change. The effects of change could be long-term but may have positive impact also. Change in business can make it to be in current trend of the market.

4.2 Change management plan

Depicting changes and communicating it to respective stakeholders: The respective changes have to be communicated and depicted to every concerned stakeholder so that confusion or chaotic situation can be avoided.
Describing scope and benefits: Every change has some sort of scope and benefit. If employees and other stakeholders are aware about these attributes then the amount of revolt or resistance for implementing these changes will decrease (Gollenia, 2016).

It is important to manage these roadblocks or resistances so that changes are effectively introduced. If not managed on time, there are chances that entire action plan will fail (Nolan, 2012).
Monitoring and evaluation: Monitoring and evaluation helps in keeping a tract record of all the activities which are related with proposed changes. Supervising activities helps in keeping them aligned with organisational objectives and goals. Moreover, unethical and irrelevant acts can be curbed through this step.
Lewin step model of change consists of three stages. These stages are described as follows:
- Unfreeze: The first step involves preparing organisation to accept the change that involves breaking down of the already existing trends before building up new ways.
- Change: This stage involves change in the uncertainty 0of the people and their look out foe the adoption of change.
- Refreeze: Refreezing is a stage when organisation has adapted change and employees have started working accordingly , the organisation is ready to refreeze.
Kotter's change model can be used for management of change. It consists of 8 stages.
- Create a sense of Urgency : This is the most important stage. Support for the change can be created by creating awareness of the need of the change in the organisation.
- Create a guiding coalition: Establish a team that can occupy itself to implement change in the organisation and encourages the employees to adapt and cooperate for the process.

- Communicate the vision : It important to create and get support from the employees. It can only be achieved by discussing the vision of change with the employees.
- Remove obstacles: It is necessary that the change is accepted by everyone. But there are certain people who refuses to accept the change and become obstacle .Therefore, it is needed to remove such obstacles that are resisting change.
- Create short term wins: Success always motivates to work harder. Create short term goals so that employees can understand the idea of what is going on.
- Consolidate improvements : Victory should not be declared at early stage. Change is a slow going process.
- Anchor the changes: This is the last stage. If a change is a part of the organisation then only it can be a part of corporate culture.
4.3 Monitoring improvements in performance
Corporate image of a company is totally dependent on the types of products and services it sells. Customers are the first entities who are contributing to the corporate image of a company. When changes are implied in the organisational structure, there is certain impact felt on the performance of the organisation (Kondalkar, 2013).

The changes proposed in above sections when facilitate the performance, there will be significant improvements in customer share. More profits will be earned by organisation and marketing strategies shall help in acquiring more fame and publicity by the company (Hornstein, 2015).
Monitoring improvements in performance helps in understanding the practical impact of concerned decisions. Moreover, whether organisation has been successful in achieving set goals and objectives is also evaluated through performance monitoring. The difference that is obtained when past performance reports of the company are compared with current reports depicts the scope of improvements (Hayes, 2014). Innovation testing, more opportunities of improvements and simultaneous impact over stakeholders are some of the outcomes which are assessed when performance monitoring is enabled. Performance in People Ltd. has to inculcate effective monitoring system to track and record improvements and then consider changes that occur to performance.
Senior decision maker understands that their enterprise activity system strongly affects the action of managers and workers..

(2) In Customer perspective, it includes a question that how do customers see them? . In add-on to measure of period of time,quality and performances and service,industries must stay irritable to the value of their items. But customers look cost as only one element of the cost they obtain when dealing with their suppliers. Other supplier impelled costs from ordering,scheduling transfer and paying for the materials;to receiving,analyse,managing and storing the materials; to the trash,work on and devolution caused by the materials and schedule break from false deliveries.
(3) In internal perspective, these include the question is that what must they excel at?. If the detail system is unsusceptible,however, it can be the Achilles heel of performance measurement. Managers at ECI are currently limited by the absence of such an operational information system. This big concern is that the scorecard detail is not timely,reports are generally a time period behind the industries routine management meetings and the measures have yet to be connected for managers and workers at lower levels of the industry. The industry is in progress of rising more responsive detail system to decre4ase this constraint.
(4) Innovation and learning perspective, These consists the question that can they continue to improve and create value?. It needs that managers create updates within a particular time period. In improvement program ,ensures of activity fault,lost deliveries and scrap were to be reduced by a section of ten over the incoming four years. These kinds of mark express the part for in loop updates in client satisfaction and internal business activity.
