Change management as a common business practice is about 15 years old, yet it is the most misunderstood and underutilized of all of the common initiative management practices used to conduct transformation.
This 7-part course offers condensed learning in the practices, activities, and tools used in common change management.
What sets this course apart is that it orients the body of knowledge for organizational change management around transformational change.
This course specifically addresses these kinds of business transformations :
- Digital Transformation
(workplace, ecommerce, cyber security, cloud processing, and artificial intelligence) - Centralization and Shared Services Creation
(information technology, procurement and supply chain, logistics and materials management) - Industry Standardization and Regulatory Evolutionary Leap
(financial management, cyber security, environmental) - Sustainability, Equity & Inclusion, Customer & Employee Experience
(listening, loyalty programs, engagement practices)
