Increase Project Success With Effective Business Change Management
Delivering successful organizational change is still a challenge despite huge advances in the P3 professions over the past few years.
Organizations still fail to reap the benefits from projects and programmes, despite more effective delivery and governance frameworks. Perhaps we need to focus more on the people?
Join Nicola Busby & Sarah Mullins for an insight into what effective business change management can achieve during organizational change.
Two case studies will be used to illustrate key points in the project lifecycle where a focus on people can make the crucial difference between success and failure.
Nicola & Sarah will also discuss how business change and project management can work together, and where possible tensions may lie.
