Managing Change as a Project Manager
Thursday, August 25, 2022, 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM CDT
This one-hour webinar will provide you with a quick overview of the key elements of organizational and people change management.
Change happens – and as project managers, we are considered the change agents. Project managers need to understand it and manage it as an integral part of their projects. Without appropriate change management, projects may produce the specified product, service, or result within the constraints of cost, schedule, and quality – but not the expected business results. The true success of a project is not only measured at the end of the project, but also at the end of its life cycle when the business case can be validated. This webinar will provide you with a quick overview of some of the key elements of organizational and people change management.
