Your Guide to Organizational Change Management (OCM)
No matter their industry, successful businesses and organizations all across the globe have one thing in common: managing change. Even when things are smooth sailing, change often comes in and slows the gears that keep your operations chugging. But it doesn’t have to be that way. In fact, change can offer countless benefits – if you have the right OCM strategy and software. With certain change management best practices, you can empower all employees and stakeholders to pitch in and create a system that works for everyone.
Change Management Software: Build an OCM Strategy with Sciforma
We now know what organizational change is, what managing it looks like, and why it’s vital for organizations to have systems in place to monitor its progression. However, putting all of those insights into action still requires a little bit more planning.
Before you dive head-first into bringing OCM to your team, make sure you choose the right resources to help you get the job done right.
A strong project portfolio management software like Sciforma can help you simplify the process immensely. One poll from 2019 showed most respondents – around 65% – said that using project management software has had a positive impact on their projects and whether they were completed on time.
Sciforma’s Four Essential Principles of OCM
Here at Sciforma, we have decades of experience providing award-winning services to teams just like yours. Our definition of organizational change management is based on a few core principles that guide our strategy. We believe that a healthy OCM approach considers each one individually and as it relates to the others. Let’s take a closer look.
| Key Principles of Organizational Change Management | |
|---|---|
| Engagement |
|
| Planning |
|
| Implementation |
|
| Communication |
|
These principles are not necessarily chronologically ordered. While they generally follow the flow listed above, they may also overlap as an organization repeats this cycle with more and more changes over time.
Sciforma embeds these core values into accessible software solutions that bring everything together in one place. Our project portfolio management tools build on the tenets of successful OCM and give you access to all you need to track information, communicate openly, and oversee shifts in your workflow.
