Preface

Think about the projects your company has implemented over the years. How many of them were successful? How many of them failed? Now, think about one of the projects that failed. Take a minute to write down the three main reasons it failed:

  1. ________________________________________________________________
  2. ________________________________________________________________
  3. ________________________________________________________________

If your company is like most companies, the reasons you wrote down have little to nothing to do with technology. They concern people. People didn't like the new technology. People weren't trained properly on the change. People hadn't received adequate communications and didn't understand the change. People had been through so many failed change projects in the past that they knew if they just waited long enough, this one would fail too, and they could go back to the old way of doing things.

Sound familiar?

Project teams rarely forget to work on the technology, but they often forget to work with the people, and no matter how amazing your new technology is, it's useless unless people use it efficiently.

This book will help you focus on people. It will walk you step by step through the main aspects of Change Management, so that by the time your new technology is ready, your people are ready, too.

How to use this book

This is not a theoretical book. It is a practical book that will prepare you to manage change in your organization. Throughout the book, as I explain each new concept, there will be an activity for you to complete that will allow you to put that new idea into action.

For many of the exercises, I will provide a sample solution. This will give you one possible way to complete the exercise, but it is not the definitive answer. Your answer will be unique to your project and organization. As you come back to this book for different projects, you are likely to find that the answers you come up with differ based on the unique characteristics of the change you are implementing.

If you are currently working on a project, I strongly encourage you to use your project for the activities. Think about how to apply the activities to your organization, and use your real-life situation to fill in the templates. By the end of the book, you will have the beginning of a Change Management plan that will prepare you to help the people in your organization to successfully adopt the change you are implementing.

If you don't have a project that you are working on, you can use the case study that I have included in this
