Change Management: The Key to Unlocking Project and Program Benefits
with Elissa Farrow
About the Webinar
Appropriate organizational change management is the key to unlocking benefits and value from our investment in projects and programs. Change management is more than the delivery of training or a few communications. Change management is about impact and about influence and about leveraging the power of people for our strategic aspirations to thrive and be realized. But why is change management the first item to get descoped when budgets need to be tightened? Why do we still get resistance? And what can we do to overcome these challenges?
