UNLOCKING VALUE FROM YOUR TECHNOLOGY – CREATING AN EFFECTIVE CHANGE MANAGEMENT PROGRAMME  back
26 January 2005

Technology defined business change in the 1990s, radically altering the ways in which businesses operate and transact. While technological innovation continues apace, its disruptive impact has softened as companies have become familiar and comfortable with technology.

For many, a bigger emerging challenge is focused on people, culture, organisational design and working practices. Specifically, how do you get people to embrace new ways of working that will unlock the full potential of technological investment.

We are bringing together a small group of executives from a range of different major companies across industries to share insights and experience on creating an effective change management programme to unlock value from technology. This is a professionally moderated, roundtable discussion where participants bring and exchange ‘war stories’. We’ll be sharing mistakes to avoid, tips for success, new techniques and ideas. This face-to-face gathering will take place in a central London location.

The objectives are to help you benchmark your current approach to change management, avoid costly mistakes and generate new ideas that can get the people in your company benefiting from new systems and applications.

There are a number of key issues that we plan to cover including:

* What level of importance is given to Change Management when implementing an IT solution; what is the decision making process?
* How and who do you bring together in a Change Management team
* What technologies/techniques/tools do you use to incentivise adoption
* Training and Induction – how is it organised
* IT training vs People/skills/changing behaviour and working practices – where is the balance?
* Organisational change – is this taken into consideration
* Post implementation – what happens next ?

If you are in Corporate Development, Continuous Improvement, Strategy and Planning, Programme Management, IS, HR or Organisational Development, then this is a collaborative session, that you cannot afford to miss.
