The Practical Change Manager series has been written by: Jonathan Parnaby (Director / Owner of The Transformation Office Ltd)
So, you’re interested in the topic of Change Management and how people go through the Kubler-Ross change curve (Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, Acceptance and Moving On)? More importantly you’ve decided you want to help people transition through that process as part of your professional career. You may have chosen to go on some Change Management courses and learn about a variety of change management models ranging from Kotter, Lewin and dozens more.
Hopefully you’ve been given the opportunity within an organisation to become a Change Manager for a large-scale Business Transformation Programme which you’re obviously excited and a little bit nervous about, I mean you’ve finally got a chance to make a real difference by focusing on the people aspect of change. Then the reality sets in on your first week, up until this point you’ve learnt a lot of theory but now you’re sat in your first Programme Board meeting and the Programme Director is staring directly into your eyes and asks you “how are you physically going to get the business to change and transform?” and you need to have a good answer.
