Change
Management
Is a structured approach for
ensuring that changes are
thoroughly and smoothly
implemented, and that the lasting
benefits of the change are achieved.
The focus is on the wider impacts of
change, particularly on people and
how they, as individuals and
teams, move from the current
situation to the new one.
