In their quest to successfully execute their strategy, organizations across the globe have indulged in establishing units under various names from Office of Strategy Management (OSM), Project Management Office (PMO), and Organizational Change Management Unit (OCM).

Many of these units have failed to achieve their intended objectives.

This failure was due to the fact that short fallings within implementation of each of these standalone units hindered the realization of the main objective of executing the strategy.

This presentation outlines a framework for strategy execution that integrates both project and change management models and methodologies. First describing the various units PMO, OSM and OCM, their roles and functions, the structures and limitations of each, and then outlining the integrated framework with its processes and organization structure, highlighting the key challenges for this framework.

Implementing this integrated framework would help organizations achieve better strategy execution through maintaining strategic focus and alignment, providing the necessary tools to execute while ensuring people are in the heart of the whole process by keeping them aligned, embracing the change and motivated to execute.
