Over the past few decades, we've seen the discipline known as
project management (PM) evolve, and witnessed huge growth in its
use by organizations to achieve their goals and objectives. We have
also seen a new profession known as business analysis (BA) develop
from a variety of work previously performed by project managers,
systems analysts, engineers, and other professional roles due to
the need to improve the success rates of projects and programs.
With the steady evolution and growth of this new role, we've
learned that effective PM and BA collaboration can improve success
rates dramatically. More recently, thought leaders and industry
insiders have begun to recognize the synergies of these roles with
the discipline known as change management, and the opportunity for
even success. Early indications show the success rates for
strategic projects using change management regularly average around
70%. Mastering Organizational Change Management provides a
practical model for organizational change professionals, senior
business analysts, project and program management leaders, and
executives to follow in developing and executing any important
change initiatives or major enterprise transformation efforts. It
will also show how to measure and analyze the effectiveness of the
change initiatives and the activities used to achieve successful
