This course focuses on change management in the areas of organizational development and human resource management combined with standardized portfolio, program, and project management approaches-finally seen as both people and processes integration.

Many recent studies show that organizations that use standardized portfolio, program, and project management (i.e., PMBOKĀ® 5th Edition) practices in-sync with thorough and standardized change management approaches have much higher success rates.

The ability to manage and adapt to organizational change is an essential ability required in the workplace today. Due to the growth of technology, modern organizational change is largely motivated by exterior innovations rather than internal moves. When these developments occur, the organizations that adapt quickest create a competitive advantage for themselves, while the companies that refuse to change get left behind. This can result in dramatic profit changes.

Organizational change directly affects everyone from the entry-level employee to senior management. So, everyone must learn how to handle changes to the organization, where managers and executives are charged with the additional responsibility for making change happen in and through the different levels of strategic execution.
