Prosci Webinar: The Holistic Approach to Change Management - Insights and Inn...Prosci ANZ
For nearly twenty years, Prosci has been conducting change management research to identify benchmarks and best practices for leading the people side of change (and the 10th Best Practices in Change Management study is now open!)
As the discipline matures, the core of this body of knowledge has stabilized, and well-established findings guide many practitioners’ change management work. But with every study, this research has expanded into new topic areas and shed light on the most innovative applications of change management.
This webinar will examine the new topics explored in the most recent Best Practices in Change Management study (including cultural adaptation, change agent networks, and vertical industry impact) and how you can apply these findings to your work.

Prosci Webinar - How to Integrate Change Management and Project ManagementProsci ANZ
For changes to deliver results and outcomes, structured approaches are needed for both the technical side of the change (through project management) and for the people side of the change (through change management). The technical side ensures that solutions are designed, developed and delivered effectively. The people side ensures that the solution is embraced, adopted and used proficiently. These two complementary disciplines share a common objective - to improve the performance of the organisation by implementing a change. However, bringing these two disciplines together can sometimes be challenging. This webinar looks at how to integrate change management and project management across five dimensions to deliver benefit realisation and a unified value proposition for change.
I often use this presentation to introduce/re-introduce change management concepts to leaders prior to starting a new organizational development initiative.
Effective change management provides organizations with a mechanism whereby value is added and realized through reduced costs. Cost reductions are realized because change is implemented more effectively, causes fewer disruptions, and customer confidence is raised.
The purpose of this webinar is to give a clear picture of change management and its role in the organization. This webinar will explain the importance of change management, give an overview of how it works, and how it creates and adds value to the organization.
Additionally, this webinar seeks to demonstrate the extent to which change management can enhance organizational objectives and goals, how properly implemented change management enables the furtherance of the organizational strategy, and how it contributes to organizational planning.
This webinar will explain how change management is an essential part of a holistic, results-driven approach that reflects business initiatives. It also seeks to show the inter-relatedness between change management and varied business activities as well as the value-add it brings by enabling organizations to respond to needed business changes.

The most difficult part of any initiative is the behavior change it calls for, and RBQM is no exception. The implementation of RBQM without a implementation plan is just a wish.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Because of the goals and the scope of the VULCAN project, there are
many challenges that must be overcome:
– Integrating 40+ local fiefdoms (the plants)
– Developing strong executive leadership
– Interfacing with multiple other areas (other projects, other departments)
– Developing a desire for change in an organization that may have little additional
enthusiasm for change
The key to any successful technology implementation rests with how the
organization is managed, not with the technology. The top reasons for
failure cited by a study of technology projects:
1. Need for managing change is not recognized (Change Management)
2. Top management's short term view and quick fix mentality (Project Planning)
3. Rigid hierarchical structures in the organization (Change Management)
4. Line managers in the organization unreceptive to innovation (Change Management)
5. Failure to anticipate and plan for the organizational resistance to change (Change
Management)

• Success and failure are based upon

– not on the actual results
• Initially, people’s expectations for the
results of a change effort are
dramatically higher than the actual

• Tremendous effort must be made to

• If results trail expectations too long,

• Participation & InvolvementParticipation & InvolvementParticipation & InvolvementParticipation & Involvement – Key people should be given roles in the change effort to ensure

• Facilitation & SupportFacilitation & SupportFacilitation & SupportFacilitation & Support – Where people are being displaced or fiefdoms are being dismantled,
explicit facilitation might be used to act as a forum for those most negatively impacted by the project.
Adjustment support (re-training, outplacement, etc.) might also be required both as an aide for those
impacted and as a statement about the organization’s commitment to both its people and to the
change effort.
• Negotiation & AgreementNegotiation & AgreementNegotiation & AgreementNegotiation & Agreement – If one or more powerful constituencies exist that can actively resist
the project, then an explicit negotiation might be required to identify areas of concern and strategies
for dealing with those concerns in order to move the project forward.
