Embracing the Change

Whether you call it transformation, evolution, revolution or pivoting on a dime…change is here, change is there, change is everywhere. June PM Network® offers you a special section that will help you embrace change.

First, we look at change achievement. A big gap exists there—one which project managers can help bridge by thinking more strategically. PMI research shows 92 percent of executives say organizational agility is critical to business success. But just 27 percent of those executives see their organizations as agile.

If you think that statistic is something, here’s another eye-opening number: McKinsey predicts that there will be an additional 2.4 billion middle-class consumers in the world by 2043. Demographics are a big change-driver.

The special section on change is chock full of insights from all levels of project managers and executives giving their takes on achieving success in change initiatives—such as the importance of having a vision, and balancing growth with efficiency. One article stresses how critical it is for change project managers to have sharp people skills, especially listening skills. After all, change is hard and leadership through change is necessary.

How is change going at your organization?
