“Soft side” drives success on “hard side” • How much value does a
new process deliver if noone follows it? • How much value does a new technology or system deliver if no-one uses it? • How much benefit is realised if users drift back to the “old ways”?
With a very large, negative ROI
Reframing the purpose of Change Management Apply a structured approach to the people side of change and equip leaders to lead change
achieve targets for adoption, utilisation and proficiency and deliver expected benefits
Why Change Management? “The case for Change Management is inextricably connected to project connected to project and organisational success. If you are not talking about achieving results, then you are having the wrong conversation.� Tim Creasey Prosci Chief Development Officer
