This cost-effective strategy gives the company the flexibility to scale its delivery of change management programs and accelerate its approach to building capability
Scaling change management
While a strategic initiative originally brought the role of change management into the spotlight, Husky decided that based on its past experience with Prosci’s change management methodology it was time to expand its application to other projects. Husky decided to embrace Prosci as its organizational standard for change management.
The flexibility of a Prosci License
As the organization was familiar with Prosci's methodology and its results, the team got the go-ahead to acquire a Prosci ADKAR® Enablement License. This license provides access to a variety of Prosci tools and training materials such as the following, and much more:
- Leading Your Team Through Change (program)
- Taking Charge of Change (program)
- ADKAR: A Model for Change (book)
- Change Management: The People Side of Change (book)
- Employee's Survival Guide to Change (book)
Results
By using the simple framework of the Prosci ADKAR Model, project managers of the strategic initiative were able to easily convey the value change management brought to the project and how other project team members and people managers could support their staff in reaching adoption and utilization of the new solution. The results on this project also inspired further awareness of change management throughout Husky.
With a Prosci License, Husky can now provide employees with role-based training and tools to build awareness of change management and the ability to apply its principles to their daily work and to other important initiatives.
