Navigating Complex IT Infrastructural Changes with the help of a Change Manager (CM) Consultant

When your company decides to install or upgrade their IT infrastructure, how do you make sure that all the people that are being impacted get on board? There are three main areas that a CM can assist with:

1. Risk Assessment and Mitigation: As a Prosci® trained change manager, a risk assessment is completed to compare the size and scope of the change along with analyzing the change-ready or change resistant level of the organization, this helps define the people risk of the change. The assessment will determine the level of customization and scale of the change management approach to mitigate any risk associated with the change.

2. Streamlined Process Optimization: A change manager will utilize and provide a performance report to help track “progress to plan’ of the ADKAR blueprints and Change Management plans. The CM will work closely with the project team, to ensure alignment and effective collaboration. As the project progresses, the individuals are made aware of the progress and are trained to ensure a smooth transition to the new IT infrastructure, minimizing down time.

3. Continuous Monitoring and Adaptation: Change managers that are familiar with the Prosci® Methodology know that it is a flexible approach to managing the people side of change. One key component of this methodology is the Prosci® 3-Phase process. Phase 3 is all about sustaining outcomes. A CM will continue to review the performance, focus on implementing actions to sustain change outcomes and identify any gaps, and then begin to establish how to carry sustainment efforts forward by transferring knowledge and assets when the organization is ready.

A study from Panorama Consulting Group shows — executives who invest in a change management methodology are 33% more likely to achieve “good” or “excellent” outcomes from their transition than those who don’t.

How many times has this happened? Some organizations only pay attention to change management when issues like significant resistance and low user adoption emerge, often when the project is well underway. Change management, even if started late, can have a positive impact on achieving desired outcomes from a change - some change management can be better than none at all.

Prosci research shows that change management, even if started late, can have a positive impact on achieving desired outcomes from a change.

Implementing large, complex changes in a single step is risky. It is better to break down changes into smaller, manageable pieces that can be deployed incrementally. Here are some common wrong ways to implement changes & why to avoid them.

1. Not communicating changes: Failing to communicate changes to relevant stakeholders, including users, customers, and team members, can lead to confusion and resistance. Clear communication is essential to manage expectations.
2. Not Monitoring and Measuring: After implementing changes, it's essential to monitor the system's performance and collect metrics to assess the impact of the changes. Ignoring this step can lead to ongoing issues going unnoticed.
3. Not Training Team Members: If team members are not adequately trained on new technologies or processes, they may struggle to work with the changes effectively. Invest in training and knowledge transfer.
