# Case study: Fuel/Petroleum

###### The Organization

Canadian-based multi-national organization that supplies and markets fuel and petroleum products and has a large Canadian convenience-store presence.

###### The Project

Integration of IT systems as a result of an acquisition. Desired state was to integrate systems but also begin cultural integration of the two organizations.

###### Key Challenges

- Acquisition was completed two years prior to the project. Since the acquisition there had been no changes to the organization, and those that continued to work in the acquired company were getting anxious.
- The organization has a history of acquiring companies and “bolting them on” rather than integrating them.
- Leaders had never been expected to hold their people accountable.
- Real “us” vs “them” thinking.
- Customer information and databases were not shared (and would not be as a result of the project) so – in the eyes of many impacted people – efficiencies would not be gained.

###### Our Approach

- Educate IT and business leaders throughout the organization regarding their role and responsibilities in leading the change. 
    - Held Leader as Sponsor training session.
    - Worked with key leaders to ensure messaging to affected groups was accurate and timely.
    - Created tactical leadership support toolkit.
- Partner with Program Manager to ensure change plans were integrated into the program plan. 
    - Regular communication with Program Manager through formalized team meetings and informal communication
- Develop “change agent network” comprised of leaders directly impacted by the change to support feedback loops and consistent communication. 
    - Supported a dual function of also helping leaders upskill to be good leaders of change.
    - Provided a forum for “acquirer” and “acquiree” to get to know one another and develop relationships.
    - Allowed for real-time communication and feedback, resulting in an iterative approach to communications.

Levvel is grateful to work on treaty lands and territory of the Indigenous Peoples (Inuit, First Nations, and Métis), also called Canada. These lands and cultures continue to benefit us all, and it is our desire to return genuine benefit with open hearts. We encourage all Levvel employees, consultants, clients, and partners to learn more about the Indigenous cultures, Indigenous territories, and effects of colonization in their region. We are dedicated to reducing the educational, employment and technical skill gaps that exist between Indigenous and non-Indigenous talent.
