'Need to know': How to engage and update stakeholdersIIBA UK Chapter
Slides from a presentation given by Annette Andresen to a joint meeting of IIBA UK and PMI London branch on 2 October 2014.
One of the biggest challenges faced by project managers and BAs is engaging stakeholders at the right time and with the right information. Done well, you can build support and be given the space to get on with delivering your project. Done badly, your stakeholders will become resistant or begin to involve themselves in the project minutiae, demanding more status updates and wanting more control of the project.
In this presentation, Annette Andresen will provide some tips on how to identify your stakeholders, how to engage them and how to present them with meaningful information.
The process of transition - John FisherAlex Clapson
Change happens!, how we deal with that change depends on who initiated the change and what control we have over the events in question. As change always impacts on the person (irregardless of any other elements changed it is always the individual who must deal with that change) we must understand what the impact will be for the individual.
As we become a 100+ member team, we’ll like to showcase the core values that help us become a strong unit together.
These values define what we stand for and how anyone can become a member of the CoinSwitch Kuber family.

8 Things You Must Offer to Become a Great Leadermyamcat
Aside from facts, figures, and policy, great leaders make a priority of remembering the soft elements that help their team grow and perform at their best. Great leaders don’t save human reflection for special occasions. They keep these thoughts in mind all the time to keep their teams happy and productive.

It All Starts With A Sense of Urgency (a ChangeThis Manifesto by John Kotter)Samuli Pahkala
In a turbulent era, when new competitors or political problems might emerge at any time, when technology is changing everything, both the business-as-usual behavior associated with complacency and the running-in-circles behavior associated with a false sense of urgency are increasingly dangerous.
In bold contrast, a true sense of urgency is becoming immeasurably important. Real urgency is an essential asset that must be created, and re-created, and it can be.

When we think about continuous development of highly innovative technology, changing political environments, globalization and steep growth, tough competition, mergers and acquisitions, it’s a whirlwind of rapid change that fosters urgency.
Urgency means a sense of pressing importance. To live out success factors, its crucial to be able to distinguish between a “true sense of urgency” and a “false sense of urgency.” In fact, distinguishing between them during the very first step of any kind of change can mean the difference between success and failure.
A man has been trying to cut down a tree in the rain for hours, after a while his neighbor seeing that the man is facing some difficulty goes over and asks what the problem is, and the man replies “It’s hard to cut down the tree because the wood is wet.”. The neighbor replies “Since nature is not in our control, and you can’t do anything about the rain, you can surely do something about the saw and sharpen it, you’ll be able to cut down the tree faster that way”.

One of the best-known approaches to Behavior change is known as the "Stages of Change" model, which was introduced in the late 1970's by researchers James Prochaska and Carlo DiClemente who were studying ways to help people quit smoking.
The Stages of Change Model has been found to be an effective aid in understanding how people go through a change in behavior.
In this guide I provide information and tools for people to ask and answer five basic questions to create and implement their plan. Each year, people make resolutions that don’t seem to stick. This is because they are short sighted and are not grounded in a longer term plan and direction for their life. My goal in this guide is to get people thinking and planning based on what you want they want out of their life in the future and setting goals and strategies now to get there.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
1. WHAT’S WRONG WITH cHaNGe?
By Serrainne Nyamori
Change by its very nature carries assumptions, values and beliefs which eventually determine
whether an individual will accept or reject the process. An individual’s culture needs to be
rejuvenated and constantly revised in order to thrive in today’s difficult and increasingly
competitive environment. This transformation takes time, effort and commitment.
In an interesting twist, the human brain adapts to three basic types of change. To strengthen
current behaviours; to modify existing behaviour patterns; and to accommodate completely
new behaviours. We will focus on accommodating completely new behaviours.
Let us assume you were offered an opportunity to urgently learn a new skill. Unless you are a
modern day genius, the first thoughts on your mind would be ‘How long will it take me to gain
mastery?’, ‘What if I fail?’
Automatically ,your mind launches into personal and social anxiety and the quick – fix
solution to this would be to ‘flee’ from the situation by either declining the offer or finding
excuses as to why you cannot do it. This however, becomes a real problem, a costly one at that.
Reasons why we resist change
There are several reasons why we would resist change. I have highlighted a few:
We get too comfortable with the current situation.
Fear of the Unknown
Normal routine is disrupted
The change wasn’t ‘MY’ idea to start with
Fear of failure
The purpose of change is unclear
Fear that you will lose something of value because of the change
The rewards of the change don’t match the effort required
Change requires additional commitment
You have set traditions and habits of the past
The most dangerous phrase in the language of change is ‘I’ve always done it this way’. Sadly,
this seems to always be a default state for most of us especially, when faced with situations
where we need to change. Well, in the same breath while we are busy struggling to maintain
the status quo, let us be reminded that a comfort zone is a beautiful place but nothing ever
grows there.
2. Now, we know that change really needs to happen, but we don’t know how to go about
delivering it.
• Where do you start?
• Whom do you involve?
• How do you see it through to the end?
With inferences from Lewin’s, Mckinsey and Kotter’s Change Models, I will attempt to break
down how we (you and I) can successfully go through the process of change.
For change to happen, you must first create an internal sense of urgency around the
need for change. This will help you spark the initial motivation to get things moving.
Start by carrying out an honest discussion with yourself and examine any current or
future opportunities that could be exploited. Once you have done that, indentify
potential threats and develop scenarios of what could happen in the future. You can
also request support from trusted friends and family who can help strengthen your
resolve
Remember, managing the change process is not enough; you have to lead it, especially
if there are other people involved in the transition like a spouse, children, parents, team
or committee. Work to convince them that the change is necessary and look towards
attaining emotional commitment from them.
To lead the change, you need a clear vision that people can grasp easily. A clear vision
will help the people around you understand why you are asking them to do something.
Determine what is really central to the change and review/practice your ‘vision speech’
as often as you can. Once they see for themselves what you are trying to do, then
everything will begin to make sense, even to you.
What you do with your vision after you create it determines how successful your efforts
will be. Communicate it frequently. Let your vision be embedded in everything that
you do, apply it to all aspects of your life and walk the talk
Naturally, every vision is bound to face obstacles. These could be people around you.
Learn to recognize these obstacles and take action quickly to win them over to your
side or remove them from your scheme of things. You must accept the eventual
possibility that not everyone will be open to your ideas and it is perfectly okay to let
them go after several attempts of trying to win them over. Doing this will help the
change process move forward.
3. Continue to justify your vision and need for change by thoroughly analysing your pros
and cons. Avoid critics and negative thinkers who may hurt your progress. Celebrate
any milestones achieved. Create quick wins. Nothing motivates more than success.
Real change runs deep! Many change attempts fail because victory is declared too early.
Build on the change. After every win, analyse what went right and what needs
improving. Re- set your goals and continue building on the momentum you have
achieved. Do not tire; practice the act of continuous improvement – KAIZEN. (KAI –
change, ZEN – for better)
Finally, make the change stick. Do this by making deliberate effort to show the values
behind your vision in your day to day life. Talk about the progress you are making and
share your success stories. Most importantly, build a culture around the change; this
will help ensure that your efforts are not lost of forgotten.
In conclusion, focussing entirely on the change process including awareness and
preparedness makes the transition easier. Dealing with change, and not avoiding it, will
help you perform well in a new environment.
