Ten years ago, Author Paul Gibbons began to question some of the tools he had been using in change management since 1994. Was change management as we know it dying? Do learning styles predict learning?

This initiated a journey that began with The Science of Organizational Change in 2014 (2nd ed. 2019.) That book was the first to bring behavioral science and several other ideas to the global change community.

In 2022, he joined IBM consulting as their thought-leader in change, culture, and leadership – with a remit to upgrade their change methodologies. That led to deeper understanding of the mechanisms that prevent change changing.

Now back on the circuit as a keynote speaker (on AI chiefly in 2024 – what a surprise) – he has just completed The Future of Change Management – a ten chapter book with contributions from 10 global thought-leaders in change.

Join Paul as he discusses why he wrote the book, what the big messages are, and why (sometimes) change doesn’t want to change.

One of the most intransigent challenges of meeting our change goals lies in convincing people to willingly embrace new attitudes, behaviours and ways of being.

Join special guest Matt Marsh and the London chapter for this fantastic opportunity and learn how to Solve the Hidden Human Side of Change.

Hear Matt discuss:

  • Why some people choose to hide their true feelings toward change…
  • Why this causes significant challenges for leaders wishing to implement modernisation, transformation or change programs.
  • How new forms of progressive leadership, creativity and problem-solving skills can be utilised to improve performance.

 

We will break out into small teams to explore through conversation, debate and ideation how we might collectively address some of the most pressing challenges associated with addressing the human side of change.

We will finish with short presentations from each discussion group along with a general Q&A.

Launching a Change Management Office (CMO) is a change initiative in itself. It’s a big step towards improving enterprise change maturity and embedding change capability across the business. Without careful planning and commitment, it can start out with good intentions yet gain very little traction.

Join our guest speaker Lena Ross for an interactive webinar and learn how to use the Business Value Canvas effectively to get your Change Management Office off to a flying start.

Inpired by the Business Model Canvas, Lena has created the CMO Business Value Canvas as the tool to help guide this critical early conversation with your sponsor. With this Canvas you can navigate the discussion to agree on your approach, deliverables, governance, success metrics, resources, revenue/revenue cost models and clarity of overall purpose. This is the time to manage expectations around what can realistically be delivered.

In this webinar, Lena will walk through how to complete the Canvas and how it can be used to clearly articulate the CMO’s value and service offering and how it informs your overall approach.

Event attendees will receive a copy of the Business Value Canvas and Lena’s white paper The Challenges and Opportunities of the Change Management Office: Optimising Value Creation Through the Lens of Formal and Informal Power.
