Change management is full of activities you cannot measure objectively, and even if you could, the effectiveness of change activities varies from person to person. In this video, Bob McGannon shares the steps he uses when creating a change management plan for his projects, including how to formulate and plan the change, communicate the change, provide education, and assessing new or differing roles. In addition, the measurements that can be put in place for staff to assess the effectiveness of the changed processes are reviewed.
- I really enjoy a good paradox.…Those statements that contradict themselves.…The classic example is if I said,…"I always lie."…Would I be telling the truth…when I made that statement?…Or am I lying?…Change management in projects…is a bit of a paradox.…The project manager strives for control…carefully planning and assessing…the outputs for accuracy.…Yet, change management is full of activities…you can't measure objectively.…And even if you could…the effectiveness of change activity…varies from person to person.…
The Project Management Institute…published a book entitled,…"Managing Change in Organizations…"A Practice Guide.",…which has this quote.…A change process tests both the human aspect…and project management's need for control…and requires the capability to deal with ambiguity.…Controlling ambiguity.…Now there's a paradox to ponder.…But, that's change management in projects.…Before you decide this can't be done…consider the steps I use when creating…a change management plan for my projects.…
First, formulate and plan the change.…
