Overview

Prosci’s research indicates that integrating change management and project management is one of the greatest contributors to successful change. Yet project managers and change managers often speak different languages and have a lack of mutual understanding and buy-in that ultimately prevents effective integration.

Delivering Project Results introduces change management to project managers and project team members. The program builds their awareness of how change management can help them achieve their project’s outcomes. The program defines change management using language and a framework familiar to project teams: Intent, Objectives, Scope, Work Streams, Milestones, Deliverables and Timelines.

The workshop is particularly valuable for organizations working to build change capability into their projects. Whether delivered as part of the kick-off for a new project or during project execution, the workshop provides team members with a common context and understanding of the “people side of change” and will increase the potential for project success.
