The challenge of successfully integrating change management with project management is now a very significant priority for organizations.
Are you aware of how to optimize performance in this area?
Do you know how this could benefit your organization?
Workshop participants will be exposed to practical approaches on how to best build competencies to blend change management with project management.
This interactive workshop will:
1. define the basic concepts behind change management and project management, ie
change management is more of an art and less of a science than project management.
2. explore the areas of commonality and differences in change management and project management, ie
how change management supports contemporary project management
3. improve your competencies in change management and project management, ie
change management is a core competency in project management
4. uncover ways to leverage agile methods within business transformation, ie
integrating agile concepts within enterprise change management
After an explanation on how to use a series of proven techniques, participants will then apply these techniques to their particular challenges, issues, etc. The workshop will facilitate your development of strategies and action plans that can be implemented immediately.
Some of the techniques available include network mapping, discuss-ability of issues, stakeholder analysis, identifying driving forces, scenario planning, understanding and handling resistance, ways to look at an organization’s culture/sub-cultures, etc
5. provide an opportunity to learn from peer’s experiences
we learn from each other
The workshop will provide a chance to compare notes/experiences/stories with other practitioners/experts/consultants in relevant disciplines/fields who will be attending the workshop. Also, it will provide an opportunity to network.
Free Book
