This book examines the link between change and project management
and how creating a closer alignment between these two methodologies
can yield greater benefits and mitigate elements of failure of
information systems (IS) projects. This study explores the
underlying challenges and practicalities of closer integration of
the two disciplines and asserts that such a successful change goes
beyond the simple training of project managers in the practitioner
context. Instead, it requires organizations to conceptualize the
necessary challenges to realize the potential benefits of this
recommended integrated approach. The integration of both project
and change management has been advocated in existing research, but
the challenges of moving from a current position of separate
methodologies, different standards bodies and in some cases totally
separate organizational structures, is a step change for many
organizations. Change initiatives where good change management
practices are implemented, can increase the probability of
successful organizational change. The tasks of leading and
sustaining change can be complex and often entail the interplay of
multiple factors involving action by people at every level of the
business. This book offers a guide that identifies the barriers and
major challenges that may arise in the development of the closer
integration of change and project management. With a better
understanding of these issues, organizations can avoid such
pitfalls when establishing their own integrated approach.
