Change can be overwhelming and lead to confusion and frustration, especially when it comes to managing multiple initiatives at once. If you’re struggling to keep up with the volume of change occurring in your organisation, you’re not alone.
In today’s fast-paced business environment, change is constant as customers and business demands are evolving with the change in environment and technologies. Keeping track of all the moving parts and ensuring they align with the overall strategy can be a real challenge. Many organisations struggle with managing their change portfolio effectively and fail to achieve their intended business benefits and outcomes, leaving executives, leaders and employees frustrated and overwhelmed.
As a change practitioner or head of strategy and transformation, you know that change can be complex and multifaceted. Successful change management requires a holistic approach.
Whether you are supporting a single initiative, a program of work, a portfolio, or provide advice on the organisational-wide change agenda, it’s crucial to understand organisational change from a portfolio perspective.
Without this knowledge, you risk missing important opportunities to understand the cumulative impacts, the potential for the collision of timeframes, objectives or resource requirements, and possible failure to deliver business benefits, outcomes and key strategic objectives.
That’s where Change Portfolio Management comes in
If you’re struggling to keep up with the volume of change in your organisation, it’s time to take a step back and re-evaluate your approach. With the right tools and techniques, you can gain a better understanding of the change landscape and maximise your impact.
If the employees you support feel overwhelmed by the volume of initiatives or struggle to align the organisation’s transformation agenda with its strategic goals, our online foundation course on Change Portfolio Management can help you gain the essential skills and insights you need to drive results and improve change fitness of the business you support.

I feel like I have the tools, theory and practical examples to take our CPM approach from infancy to adulthood (or at least teenager!) and be able to demonstrate the benefits of doing so to leadership and program delivery colleagues.
I particularly enjoyed the section on storytelling and creating that change narrative for the portfolio to inspire and refocus people.
The small group setting for this course was very helpful in enriching the discussion and building connections.
