Subjects

Change Management Foundation
Change and the Individual

The Change Management Context: two models of individual change will be examined in this subsection – the Elisabeth Kübler-Ross change curve and Bridge’s stages of transition. We will cover how individuals can be motivated in different ways, education and learning support for individuals, as well as different personality types and their implications for change.

Change and the Organisation

The aim of this syllabus area is to show how organisations can be classified and how ways of working are developed. There are also insights on how to apply change tactics to different scenarios and the various individuals within the organisation that are required to make change a success.

Stakeholder Strategy and Communications

Stakeholder engagement is pivotal to the whole process of effective change. The ability to engage with people, and to engage with them often, is correlated with more effective change. People engagement is the ‘pull’ competence through which much else is contextualised and framed in change management leadership.

Change Management Practices

Change Management Practices involve understanding the potential impact of changes and ensuring that an organisation is prepared and ready to manage those changes effectively. This includes assessing the readiness of employees and stakeholders, as well as developing strategies for communicating and implementing changes in a way that minimises disruption and maximises benefits.
