Enterprise Change Management (ECM) Lab

Email this page to a friend

Online, instructor-led workshop on deploying change management

Prosci's Enterprise Change Management (ECM) Lab is a facilitated design session that helps you and your team create a customized plan for rolling out change management in your organization. The process and models presented in the ECM Lab are based on research and experience as leading-edge organizations work to build "effectively managing change" as a core competency. Through the ECM Lab, you will develop a holistic, structured plan to deploy change management in your organization.

Inputs Outputs
  • A desire and commitment to become more flexible and durable as an organization - to become change competent
  • A desire to deliver value on all projects
  • An ECM team - with at least one person certified in Prosci's methodology
  • An understanding of change management
  • Prosci's ECM Deployment Process
  • Prosci's ECM Strategy Map
  • A site license to use Prosci's materials and tools in your organization* (see costing below)
  • A customized ECM deployment strategy and set of specific tactics
  • ECM plans - including a project plan, change management plan and business case
  • Knowledge and approaches for building buy-in for change management at all levels in your organization

 

The image to the right shows Prosci's ECM Deployment Strategy Map. Many organizations who are not approaching ECM as a project, with a holistic set of actions required to really bring change management to life in their organization, tend to focus on one or two of the wedges in the model. Through the ECM Lab, you and your team will evaluate each of the elements and make decisions about which areas will initialize and mobilize change management and which areas will help sustain change management in the organization. When you complete the lab, you will have a set of specific actions, laid across a timeline, for each of the strategy elements:
  • Leadership
  • Project
  • Skill
  • Structure
  • Process

ECM Lab delivery

The ECM Lab is comprised of two components:

1. Sessions - instructor-led, live presentations and discussions. Each session lasts two hours. Attendees follow along a set of slides online and have workbooks with activities and templates to complete during the session. 2. Labs - work that is completed in-between the live sessions by your team on your specific organization; includes assessments, templates and worksheets. The output is your own ECM presentation and plans for moving forward.

The focus of the ECM Lab is taking you and your team through the ECM Deployment Process below - providing you with tools and best practices along the way so you can develop your change management deployment approach and plans.
