Build Your Change Management Approach

Before the rollout begins, you’ll lay the groundwork and secure resources
for your change management efforts.
Planning sessions can conjure visions of unfocused meetings, polite
responses to not-so-good ideas, and low-fat muffins. But it doesn’t have
to be like that.
This section walks through some basic steps to consider when building
your approach as you’re planning your deployment:

Make change management part of the project

Build your change management proposal

Secure executive support

Conduct your deployment planning workshop

Build your Change Management team

With an approach in hand, you can then develop your detailed change
management plans and schedule.

What else is happening?

During the Planning phase, the Project Management and Technical
Configuration teams will:

Conduct deployment planning workshops

Create data migration strategy

Create a mobile device strategy

Configure authentication services

Set and plan project kick-off
