GUIDELINES FOR SELECTING A PROJECT

(Please delete this section when you complete the sheet)

Each delegate needs to bring a current change project to work on during the course. You will apply the Prosci Change Management methodology to your project and create a Change Management plan, which you will present for feedback and coaching.

Tips for selecting your project:

  • Only one set of pre-work is required for each project team. Please submit this as a group
  • Choose a project with a project plan (ie. there is a structured Project Management methodology being applied) as this will assist you to apply a structured Change Management methodology
  • It is ideal if your change project is in the initiation, planning or solution design stage.This will enable you to proactively plan and implement the change management activities
  • We have also found that “look back and learns” work well, where you apply the methodology to a completed project and gain insight into how it could have been managed
  • If you are working on a large Program, please choose a part of that Program (one of the projects or a stage of the Program) to work on
  • Please do not choose a Culture Change or Implementing Change Management project unless it has a project plan and project initiation document, as these projects are often too complex for a training environment

The Project Summary only needs to be 1 to 2 pages.

Please contact us if you have any queries about how to select a change project.

1. Name of the project

2. Project description

3. Background

4. Scope

5. Primary sponsor (the business leader who is in a position to authorise and fund the change, and has sufficient power and control to implement the change)

6. Key managers and stakeholders (the group of managers and business leaders that have employees who are directly impacted by the change and/or have control over the people, processes or systems that are affected by the change)

7. Groups impacted by the change

Identify who will be impacted by the change and organise them into groups according to how they will be affected. For example, the groups could be locations (country, state, branch office) or by business unit/department (e.g. sales, marketing, finance, policy, corporate services. Then estimate how many people there are in each group.
