Facing Local Government Reorganisation?

Your managers are going to play a vital role in how your organisation navigates the months ahead.

They’ll be answering questions, calming uncertainty, supporting teams, managing performance and helping people make sense of what change means for them day to day.

In this short video, Organisational Psychologist Lucy Trueman explains why investing in your management teams now can make a real difference as you prepare for LGR.

Your managers may be highly capable at managing day-to-day services, teams and processes.

But are they equipped to lead people through uncertainty?

Significant change can bring discomfort, confusion, resistance and disengagement. Leaders need the confidence and understanding to recognise these responses and help people move through them.

At Trueman Change, we design tailored leadership development that applies organisational psychology to the real challenges your organisation is facing.

Watch the video to learn more – or speak to us about how we could support your managers and leaders.

During LGR, it’s easy to become focused on the operational detail.

But culture is what shapes how people experience the workplace.

It affects engagement, collaboration, trust, morale and how people respond to uncertainty.

In this video, Lucy Trueman explains why culture matters during Local Government Reorganisation, and why understanding your current culture can help you prepare for the transition ahead.

Most organisations can tell you what their values are.

But those stated values are only one part of the culture.

Underneath the behaviours, processes and visible ways of working sits a deeper layer: the beliefs and assumptions people carry about the organisation.

Beliefs such as:

• “Everyone is leaving”
• “We are not one team”
• “Small is better”

Whether they are factually accurate or not, these stories can shape morale, collaboration and people’s response to change.

In this video, Lucy Trueman explains why understanding these underlying beliefs is essential if you want to create meaningful and lasting culture change.

🫂Where meetings are held.
💬Whose language is used.
📣Which voices are heard.
📩How decisions are communicated.

During Local Government Reorganisation, these details can become powerful cultural symbols.

Staff may interpret them as signs of inclusion, exclusion, equality or takeover.

That is why leaders need to think carefully about not only what they decide, but what those decisions may represent to people across the councils coming together.

In this video, Lucy Trueman explains how to avoid “us and them” cultures and support a healthier transition through LGR.

During Local Government Reorganisation, communications teams have a critical role to play.

They’re not just sharing updates. They’re helping to calm rumours, build trust, manage uncertainty and shape the identity of what comes next.

We recently supported communications professionals across Surrey with a tailored session focused on the cultural and psychological impact of LGR.

The session explored how communicators can manage misinformation, understand resistance, and create a more united approach across different councils, identities and priorities.

What can psychology tell us about how people respond to change at work?

Quite a lot.

It can help leaders understand:

• Why uncertainty can create resistance or anxiety
• What motivates people during periods of change
• How culture influences behaviour
• Why different leadership styles produce different responses
• What helps change land successfully

Our leadership development work makes this research practical, relevant and directly applicable to your organisation.

Watch Lucy Trueman explain how we help leaders develop the skills they need to lead change with greater confidence.
