“To me, Change Management for IT projects is all about business readiness. There’s often too much focus on technical readiness; getting the solution ready, completing testing & ensuring data migration.
Business readiness is all about ensuring no one impacted by the change is surprised about the change occurring, about going to training for the new solution, about what is and isn’t changing, about when change will occur and what the benefits for the change will be.
This to me is why change management is so important for business change success.”
