Benefits Management: the essential ingredient for change, 10 Jan 2017. Southampton
Transformational change is here to stay.
We are living in an era of continuous transformation where standing still is simply not an option in today’s ultra-competitive and constantly changing business environments.
This presentation describes the key drivers and management imperatives for successful transformational change in organisations. It shows how placing Benefits Management at the heart of change management directly addresses and enables success.
In the main there are two key attributes of the Benefits Management methodology that help deliver successful business change.
The first is a flexible framework which can be easily embedded across the entire organisational change structure. This provides powerful change management capabilities that focus on delivering the desired end results and outcomes for the business.
Secondly and arguably most importantly, is the need to focus on the decision makers and data owners within the organisation. They are responsible for driving the change and associated benefits forward. This applies equally to; the senior responsible owner, the business change manager and benefit owners.
Benefits Management done well will naturally draw people into the change process and can achieve game-changing results. It does this by fostering in people; joined-up thinking, good communications, readiness for change and a culture of shared goals and objectives.
Today’s market drivers for constant business change don’t offer the luxury of choice.
If there is new technology or a threat to our current or aspired market objectives, then organisations must rise to the change challenge or accept the inevitable consequences such as reduced market share or business failure.
If directed to cut costs or do more for less, it should be done intelligently. Benefits management is essentially about making sure that the organisation has an unrelenting focus on delivering business value and not just traditional time, cost and quality outputs.
In the real world, it’s about people and winning the hearts and minds of the people, that will deliver true success.
On the theme of benefits management, the presentation impressed the need for measurable improvement but not at all costs. One of the challenges of benefits management is to identify which benefits are the ones to address, and not just because they happen to be measurable!
Several useful frameworks and tools are recommended and referenced in the presentation.
The presenters were Neil White, Chair of APM Benefits Management SIG and Merv Wyeth, Secretary.

This was a presentation given by Merv Wyeth of the APM Benefits Management (and APM Programme Management) SIG and Neil White of the APM Enabling Change and Benefits Management SIGs.
The presentation was to the APM South Wales and West of England branch membership in Bristol on Tuesday 17th June 2014.
The purpose of this event was to demonstrate how the symbiotic nature of benefits management and change management ensures that an organisation’s change initiatives are successful, and deliver real, lasting value.
This event aimed to show how the meaningful engagement of stakeholders at the appropriate stage of the change life-cycle greatly improves the effectiveness and efficiency of the change process.
By leveraging both the change and benefits management disciplines the timely transition to improved business operations and realisation of the expected benefits is assured.
The programme lifecycle, and its inter-related phases, was used to provide a framework that enabled delegates to participate in an inter-active discussion, all in order to improve delegates' knowledge and understanding of these two important disciplines.

New developments in program managementMichel Thiry
Since the first edition of my book "Program Management" was published 6 years ago, program management has evolved both as a distinct discipline and as an organisational capability as described in the second edition of the book. As a discipline it has reached a point where, today, the main program management standards and writers agree that it is meant to deal with complex and turbulent situations and to deliver benefits, not products. It is also becoming more of an organisational capability and practice focuses more and more on its integration within the business, from strategy formulation to sustainability of benefits.
All these developments could be encapsulated in the maturing of the program culture. In this paper, I will examine five aspects of this cultural evolution:
1. The rise of agility and its effect on program management
2. The alignment of the main program management standards
3. The integration of program management in the organisation
4. The distinction between projects and programs
5. The management of change as a key aspect of program management

BlueOrchard Finance SA - Social Performance Report 2013Jeanette Wichmann
In BlueOrchard’s fourth annual Social Performance Report,
we review the Social Performance Objectives that we as a
company have defined for 2013/2014 and provide concrete
examples of how these objectives are being pursued through
our daily activities, the products we create for our investors,
and the microfinance institutions in which we invest.
Expanding the access to financial pr oducts for micro entrepreneurs and small businesses; Empowering them to
manage their own financial future and improve their families’
well-being; Supporting the healthy development of the
communities in which they live. This is what microfinance
is all about, and the ability to achieve these outcomes is what
social performance management aims to assess.
Throughout the microfinance industry, there has been significant progress made to make social performance management more systematic and concrete. The Universal Standards for Social Performance Management that were released in 2012 developed benchmarks and yardsticks against which performance can be assessed.
We, at BlueOrchard have been actively involved
in such industry initiatives and continue to support these
developments. But it is not enough to say one wants to make
a difference: by setting specific objectives, we aim to define
and illustrate how BlueOrchard works to make that difference,
helping in developing a sustainable, inclusive financial system
worldwide.

Digital Commerce Lecture for Advanced Digital & Social Media Strategy at UCLA...Valters Lauzums
E-commerce in 2024 is characterized by a dynamic blend of opportunities and significant challenges. Supply chain disruptions and inventory shortages are critical issues, leading to increased shipping delays and rising costs, which impact timely delivery and squeeze profit margins. Efficient logistics management is essential, yet it is often hampered by these external factors. Payment processing, while needing to ensure security and user convenience, grapples with preventing fraud and integrating diverse payment methods, adding another layer of complexity. Furthermore, fulfillment operations require a streamlined approach to handle volume spikes and maintain accuracy in order picking, packing, and shipping, all while meeting customers' heightened expectations for faster delivery times.
Amid these operational challenges, customer data has emerged as an important strategy. By focusing on personalization and enhancing customer experience from historical behavior, businesses can deliver improved website and brand experienced, better product recommendations, optimal promotions, and content to meet individual preferences. Better data analytics can also help in effectively creating marketing campaigns, improving customer retention, and driving product development and inventory management.
Innovative formats such as social commerce and live shopping are beginning to impact the digital commerce landscape, offering new ways to engage with customers and drive sales, and may provide opportunity for brands that have been priced out or seen a downturn with post-pandemic shopping behavior. Social commerce integrates shopping experiences directly into social media platforms, tapping into the massive user bases of these networks to increase reach and engagement. Live shopping, on the other hand, combines entertainment and real-time interaction, providing a dynamic platform for showcasing products and encouraging immediate purchases. These innovations not only enhance customer engagement but also provide valuable data for businesses to refine their strategies and deliver superior shopping experiences.
The e-commerce sector is evolving rapidly, and businesses that effectively manage operational challenges and implement innovative strategies are best positioned for long-term success.

When most people in the industry talk about online or digital reputation management, what they're really saying is Google search and PPC. And it's usually reactive, left dealing with the aftermath of negative information published somewhere online. That's outdated. It leaves executives, organizations and other high-profile individuals at a high risk of a digital reputation attack that spans channels and tactics. But the tools needed to safeguard against an attack are more cybersecurity-oriented than most marketing and communications professionals can manage. Business leaders Leaders grasp the importance; 83% of executives place reputation in their top five areas of risk, yet only 23% are confident in their ability to address it. To succeed in 2024 and beyond, you need to turn online reputation on its axis and think like an attacker.
Key Takeaways:
- New framework for examining and safeguarding an online reputation
- Tools and techniques to keep you a step ahead
- Practical examples that demonstrate when to act, how to act and how to recover

The Current Crisis has forced us to
PAUSE and to REFLECT on Where We
Come From? Where We Are at the
Moment and Where do We Want
to Go to? This has provided us with an
opportunity to connect with our inner
self and to challenge our beliefs and
actions on how it has impacted on our
successes, failures and missed
opportunities.
At the moment we are experiencing a wave of Fear and Uncertainty which is
resulting in creating a “gloom and doom” horizon about the future economic
landscape. At both an Individual and Institutional Level we need to
acknowledge that we are not going to return to the environment that we left
prior to the Covid-19 Crisis.
The New Order will be demanding:
• Cost efficiencies across every corner of our operating process
• New ways of working
• New Leadership Frameworks to establish and manage accountability,
provide direction, inspire people, and manage performance
• Robust systems and processes to enable efficient oversight and
governance processes
• New ways of collaborating with fellow team members and external
stakeholders
