Managing Change Programs

Description

Effective change management is critical to translating ambiguous and/or uncertain strategic goals into tangible benefits for the organization.

Project management is one of the most effective processes to deliver change initiatives on cost and in time but, in order to effectively deliver business value, change programs must be harmoniously combined with other disciplines like portfolio, strategy, business analysis and operations.

This 2-day seminar will outline how all these disciplines can be unified into an effective change management program that includes both the “transform” and “run” sides of the business. It explains in detail how to elicit stakeholder requirements, how to develop a sound business case and not only deliver potential benefits but transition it into the business to realize value for the organization.

This interactive seminar will allow participants to share experiences and to apply their learning in a series of group exercises based on a real-life case study.
