I am working on a final assignment for a Project Management course. I would be quite grateful if anyone could help me out as I am required to interview an IT Project Manager regarding 'how to successfully manage change during a project'. I have tried somewhat to contact (local) PMs previously but it has been difficult and unsuccessful.
Here is an overview of the interview agenda:
How best to manage change during an IT project: FOUR key areas: 1. Change to KEY PERSONNEL who might leave at a critical point 2. Change to written and accepted SOFTWARE CODE 3. Change to CLIENT REQUIREMENTS after the original system has been specified 4. Change to the level of information and knowledge acquired during the project (via research/experience)
Questions to be asked on each key area will be: - context in which such problems occur - impact of such occurences on projects - range of tools & techniques that can be used to manage change (and description of how they work) - impact of NOT managing these types of changes successfully.
Would anyone please be kind enough to contribute to my assignment? Any amount of contribution on any of the areas would be most valuable.
Thank you! Rathi Gs Malaysia Saving Changes...

Key personnel..Who might leave at a critical point?(where the change is to)
Software code, that has already been written and accepted(where the change is to)
client requirements, after the original system has been specified(where the change is to)
the level of information and knowlede acquiced, either through research or experience(where the change is to)
in the above pls give me some guideline on
- context in which such problems occur
- impact of such occurrences on projects
- range of tools and techniques that can be used to manage change
- descriptions of how these tools and techniques work.
- impact of NOT managing these types of changes successfully
at least give me a site to look through these question..thanks..
