DC Area OD Practitioners CoP

Topic: Journey Management Workshop – Project Management “For the Rest of Us”

Facilitator: Jack Shankman

Program: Major organizational change and transformation initiatives often have senior leadership and project managers clear and aligned on the overall plan, only to find the project unravel as powerful specialized functions and subgroups weigh in on how the initiative should engage the critical stakeholders. Without managing the critical points of integration both vertically and horizontally throughout the initiative, those most affected by the change(s) are often frustrated by conflicting plans, schedules, and contacts. Moreover, this takes place just when the perspectives and talents of these stakeholders are most needed. A Journey Map represents a metaphorical tool and approach that OD practitioners can use to bring integration to the change team and it engages and enrolls stakeholders in the journey with a clarity that a project plan cannot convey. During this session, participants will learn:

The benefits of providing an overall change implementation framework.
A process for gaining the organizational alignment.
How to find the meaningful metaphors that engage stakeholders.
The use of a toolkit with practical skills for the design of a roadmap.
