Project description and background Keep it brief! Remember to start with a compelling story of why change management is important to the success of your change and the risk of not managing the people side of the change. Include the risk to the organization if this change is poorly managed. Address the pain points of your audience and what they care about (e.g., executives will focus on financials) Prosci Change Management Template
Connecting change management to business results Connect CM to financials Make a clear statement of how change management directly impacts the value and financials for this project. Use tools, graphs and others methods that help your audience understand how change management impacts your project objectives and return on investment. Remember that the objective of managing the people side of change is to achieve business results on time and on budget; however, your audience will not automatically make this connection.
