Organizational Change Management covers one of the most important, yet least understood, keys to a successful improvement process. It presents insights into Ernst & Young's field-tested formal and systematic approaches to analyze, evaluate, and effectively motivate employees to accept change as a challenge rather than a threat. A multimedia CD-ROM is filled with case studies, exercises, and tools that help the reader understand and adapt the practical, results-oriented Ernst & Young model.

From the Back Cover:

Battle-proven strategies for every employee to expect, prepare for--and maximize profit from--the changes projects introduce. For the first time, Project Change Management combines change management concepts and project management concepts to illustrate how they complement each other. Along with a step-by-step procedure designed to apply change management to complex programs like process redesign and SAP projects, it provides field-tested organizational change findings and concepts to help you systematically incorporate change into your strategic management plan. As an executive or project manager, you can utilize this comprehensive book/CD program to: make change management a vital component of every project; help employees understand the career-enhancing aspects of change; calculate and maximize your organization's ROC (in this case, Return on Change). The ability to foresee, accept, and capitalize on change separates innovators from followers. Use the exercises, user-friendly icons, case studies, and tools in H. James Harrington's Project Change Management to not only understand but to master project change at every level--transforming it from an unexpected annoyance into a weapon for innovation that will catapult your organization into the 21st century.
