The perception of change management varies widely depending on the lens of the individual – whether they are a project sponsor, workstream leader, or team member. To some, change management serves as a vitamin for a project - operating as an essential component to a project success. To others, change management is perceived as a one and done activity - a vaccine, if you will.
In this interactive webinar, we will differentiate approaches, outcomes and impacts when change management is viewed from these two distinct lenses. We will explore the advantages of how viewing change management as essential in your organization will lead to long term sustainable success. Alternatively, we will discuss the ramifications of a one and done approach and its impact on the overall OCM profession and project delivery. During the webinar:
- We will distinguish between these two approaches to change management.
- We will discuss the 7 key ingredients of a vitamin-based approach and how you as a leader, sponsor, or change practitioner will benefit most.
- We will share how a vitamin-based approach to change management will lead to healthier outcomes and more productive change.
- We will demonstrate how a vitamin-based approach to change will influence key change success metrics: proficiency, utilization, adoption, and sustainability.
OBJECTIVES:
- To recognize and differentiate between a vitamin and vaccine-based approach to change management.
- To define and explain the benefits of a vitamin-based change management approach vs. the drawbacks of a vaccine-based approach.
- To identify the 7 ingredients of a vitamin-based change approach and apply them to your next project or client engagement
