Change is inevitable. You can either take control of it or be changed by external forces. Whether you have made a conscious decision or your competition compels you, keeping on top of changes to your business and controlling how it affects your bottom line is essential to ensure predictable business outcomes.
Organisational Change
It’s about people! You, your family, your business, your staff and your customers. All change has its consequences and benefits.
The reasons for starting a project may be real and measurable, though sometimes we can be blinded by the tangibles. We can forget about the softer side of change – the impacts to team, customers and ourselves. These intangibles, such as reputation, team cohesiveness or culture can have a larger impact on a business than any technology or structure change.
Manage the most important aspects of change for the most important reasons – people matter.
Project Management
Not all business change initiatives are projects, though some really need to be. A project, in the strategic sense is merely a vehicle to take a business from one state to another. It may develop new capabilities or bring in new technology or change the form of the business entirely. It is a temporary effort with defined benefits and an expiry date.
Some project professionals focus on the techniques and artifacts of their trade and forget about why it’s there: Project Management is really business risk management in fancier clothes.
Manage your large risky projects to more reliably create positive business outcomes.
