Project Managing Change

Are you responsible for getting results? Do you need to get things to change and then make sure that change sticks? Do you want to know the most effective ways to really get things to change – for the better?

Project Managing Change gives you practical, sensible solutions to real business change issues. By combining best practice from change management and project management, it empowers you to select from a range of easy-to-use tools specially designed to uncover and resolve common problems and difficulties. Tested and proven to be effective, the emphasis is on the actual tasks and activities you need to get done to make sure that change happens.

The logical, modular approach makes it easier to apply the advice and guidance to your own unique situation. It helps you assess the scope and scale of the change you need to make and plan what you need to do to make it happen. This book by Ira Blake and Cindy Bush is one of the best practical publications on managing change from a project perspective that I have come across. It is clear and concise with some great diagrams and tables. Not only this, but it comes with downloadable tools from the www.pearson-books.com site. Should we be surprised....Dymocks, Borders and most others have this book sitting side by side with the project management selections. I believe they should categorise it under Change Management especially when the ISBN reference is Organisational Change!
