Course Description

This course explains how an Organizational Change Management [OCM] Strategy is important to a project's overall success, and will help each student build an OCM Strategy specific to their unique organizational and project needs. This course includes several organizational assessment tools that students will start to build while participating in the course, and the assessments will come together into a final OCM Strategy template.  Students will leave this course with an OCM Strategy presentation deck that is ready to be customized, finalized and presented to organizational leadership.

The course discusses different change management certifications, and primarily focuses on the approach of the Associate of Change Management Professionals [ACMP]. This ACMP approach is called "The Standard" and aligns closely with the Project Management Institute's common approach to project management and is more easily adopted into existing project structures. 

The OCM Strategy is crafted with high-level analysis and assessments. Detailed change management plans are built out in the OCM Plan, which is not covered in this course.

The course instructor, Kerstin Wade, has 10+ years of change management experience in large organizations. She is a Certified Change Management Practitioner through the ACMP and also holds her PMP and MBA. She currently practices change management at a Fortune 500 company and she consults and teaches through her company, K. Collaborative Consulting.

The instructor is very knowledgeable, with very bite sizable videos to help educate viewers about the different aspects of change management. I think it’s a clean presentation, and covers a deep subject in an easy way to understand.

The course provided organizational assessment tools were helpful and practical for building an OCM Strategy for an organization. Change management and its impact on the organization is a part of my portfolio responsibility and i feel confident i can use the tools to customize and present a plan to leaders within the organization.

Great overview and connection to content through the tools. Only build I have is the audio quality during the exercises. Was lower than the course content and I had to keep raising and lowering the volume as I traversed the course.

GOOD INFORMATION, HOWEVER, VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT THERE IS NO HANDOUTS OR TAKEAWAYS TO REFER BACK TO WHEN WE ARE IN THE FIELD.

Change management is difficult in any industry! This course very thoughtfully walks you through how to be successful in implementing and managing change. The course was well laid out, easy to follow and provided tools and insight that can be used over and over.

As a Human Resource professional, I am often leading the communication and reasons for the change to individual employees. This course provides a great foundation on how to manage the change process and I appreciate the focus of how important transparency is throughout the process.
