A Reconnaissance Survey of the
Discipline of Change management
Lecture 1
Atiq
Did you ever face any difficult
person?
How did you manage him/her?
A question for you:
What is Change management?
Another question for you:
Have your change management efforts
worked as well as you wanted?

Managing change: people
“People” Readiness for change
For corporate process improvement involving systems investments:
28% are abandoned
41% come in behind schedule and/or
over budget
80% are NOT used in the way they were
intended, or NOT USED AT ALL, 6 months
after completion of installation
-- Gartner Group, 2003
Here is what I believe change
management is:
 The process, tools and techniques to
manage the people-side of change to
achieve the required business outcome(s)
Key Points
Key point 1: To move from good intentions to good results, we have to realize that effective change
management is more than just a few pieces of communication
Key point 2: To move from good intentions to good results, we have to realize that we (the
“changers”) may be “living” in the future state, while everyone else (“the changees”) is living in the
present
Key point 3: To move beyond good intentions, effective change management MUST be focused on
helping individuals change
Key point 4: Individual change is a process
Key point 5: To move beyond good intentions, we need to select and use the tools available to us
Key point 6: To move beyond good intentions, we need the right people involved and engaged in the
right ways
Key point 7: Begin with end in mind. Measure the “right” things for this change, at the organizational
level and the individual level
Key point 1: To move from good intentions
to good results, we have to realize that
effective change management is more than
just a few pieces of communication
Change management is the process, tools
and techniques to manage the people-side
of change to
achieve the required business outcome
Benchmarking findings
Causes of resistance
 Employees:
1. Not aware of the business
need for change
2. Lay-offs were announced
or feared
3. Unsure if they had the
skills needed for success in
the future state
4. Comfort with the current
state
5. Believed they were being
asked to do more with
less, or do more for the
same pay
 Managers:
1. Loss of power and control
2. Overloaded with current
responsibilities
3. Lacked awareness of the
need for change
4. Lacked the required skills
5. Fear, uncertainty and
doubt
Can mere communications address these?
Key point 2:
To move from good intentions to good
results, we have to realize that we (the
“changers”) may be “living” in the future
state, while everyone else (“the changees”)
are living in the present future
Three Phases of Change: How
people experience change
Current
State
Transition
State
Future
State
Current State
• Employees (including management and executives!) generally
prefer the current state, because that is where they live
Current
State
Transition
State
Future
State
“better the devil you know is better than the devil you don’t”
Future State
• The future state is unknown to the employee; will it be better,
or worse?
• This is where Project teams “live”
Current
State
Transition

• The transition state creates stress and anxiety

Key point 2, revisited: To move from good
intentions to good results, we have to realize
that we may be “living” in the future state,
while everyone else is living in the present
People will resist change, but not because
they are being contrary
“better the devil you know is better than the devil you don’t”
Key point 3: Effective change management
MUST be focused on helping individuals
change
Successful change addresses both the technical and the
people side
Solution is
designed, developed
and delivered effectively
(Technical side)
Solution is accepted,
adopted and utilized
effectively
(People side)
= CHANGE SUCCESS

Project management
Change management
Current Transition FutureCurrent Transition Future
Individual PEOPLE change, NOT organizations
Effective change management
requires two perspectives
Individual perspective
 How does one
person makes a
change
successfully?
Organizational perspective
 What tools we** have to
help individuals make
changes successfully?
** “we” means project leaders and team
members, HR, OD, training, communicatio
ns, managers, supervisors
20
The focus of Change management is on helping
individuals make their own personal transition
Organizational
“The change” to how we
do business

Key point 3, revisited: To move beyond good
intentions, effective change management
MUST be focused on helping individuals
change
From an organizational perspective, we
need to determine what “we”** can do to
help individuals change
Key point 4: Individual change is a process
The five building blocks of successful
individual change
Awareness of the need for change
Desire to participate and support the change
Knowledge on how to change
Ability
to implement required skills and
behaviors
Reinforcement to sustain the change
ADKAR is the (relatively) easy-to-remember acronym
Communication checklist
Yes No Question:
Have you identified all of the different audiences you need to
communicate with throughout the organization?
Have you identified who the ideal sender of communication
messages will be?
Have you identified what are the most effective channels of
communication?
Have you created mechanisms to enable two-way
communication to take place?

Key point 4, revisited: Individual change is a

From an organizational perspective, we
need to determine what “we”** can do to

Key point 5: To move beyond good
intentions, we need to understand, select
and use the tools available to us
Some Key Change Management

“Begin with the end in mind.”
-- Stephen R. Covey from “The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People”.
… and, measure your progress
accordingly …
Two points of measurement:
Organizational perspective
 Outcome:
 Did the project deliver the
intended results?
 Process:
 Was the project delivered on
time and on budget?
 Were milestones met along the
way?

Summary of Key Points: Revisited
Key point 1: To move from good intentions to good results, we have to realize that effective change
management is more than just a few pieces of communication
Key point 2: To move from good intentions to good results, we have to realize that we (the
“changers”) may be “living” in the future state, while everyone else (“the changees”) are living in
the present
Key point 3: To move beyond good intentions, effective change management MUST be focused on
helping individuals change
Key point 4: Individual change is a process
Key point 5: To move beyond good intentions, we need to select and use the tools available to us
Key point 6: To move beyond good intentions, we need the right people involved and engaged in
the right ways
Key point 7: Begin with end in mind. Measure the “right” things for this change, at the
organizational level and the individual level

changing the world,
