An organization that admitted it was hopeless at change used this change planning approach to totally change every dimension of their company. It is that effective yet simple.

The change planning framework makes organizing a change plan simple, and the supporting ’10 streams of change’ model ensures you think through the different types of change.

The result is an easy to read and understand change plan linked to the project’s desired business outcomes (benefit or risk) that can be decomposed into detailed change action plans.

Forget the ‘noise’ about resistance to change and change strategies - this simple change planning process enables the staff themselves to define the necessary change plans. 

All you need to know is

• where you are (your current state)
• where you need to end up (your desired business outcomes)
• what you don’t know (your ‘clarify’ actions)
• what needs to change
• and what needs to be put in place to sustain the changes once made.

This Guide’s simple, activity focused approach that can be used as easily for benefits delivery, risk and issue management, as project delivery. 

And it enables you to easily approach each project as a change project!
