Response to the following discussion in a minimum of 100 words:
“Change management can differ from organization to organization but using specific tools and proper planning, can be a flawless transition. These tools can differ depending on the type of change required for the organization whether it be a shift in their vision or their work culture. Benefits to change management tools are that they can assist with the implementation of the change as well add another layer of support such as virtual helpdesks, personalized onboarding and interactive walkthroughs. Data analytics are becoming more and more popular as they are the driving force behind organizations. Data analytics are also responsible for business strategy and helping identify new roles within the organization. The frameworks can be applied to identify project outcomes and evaluate the project while it is on-going. Another benefit to data analytics frameworks being applied to different projects is that once introduced, it can be seen as a holistic approach and helps create a strategic project management plan. In conclusion, change management tools, as well as data analytic frameworks, add great value when evaluating a project.” – Stephen H.

Reply to the following classmate in a minimum of 100 words:
• “Discuss change management validity tools for a chosen organization.
Change management validity tools for my current organization, are very simple. For my organization when it comes to any validation that is needed we contact a team that is ran by the Office of Inspector General (OIG). The OIG then comes in and reviews everything within our department, writes a report providing what changes they recommend. This inspection would provide all the tools and components needed to ensure that if we are going to make any changes, what is the best route to take to make them and what is going to be needed to accomplish this. They will also provide a timeline when this should be completed. I have found that this inspection and tool make everything easier for my organization, because we get a team of outsiders to provide the feedback without any basis information allowing for any change recommendation to be honest for both the employee’s and the organization. The OIG will also provide proper analytical framework to ensure that everything is completed without any issue and is achievable within the time frame they provided.
• How could you apply analytical frameworks to illustrate possible project outcomes?
Analytical frameworks incorporate such patterns and also provide a checklist of skills, tools, and techniques that are necessary for researching a particular area, such as business analysis or system architecture. This can be a great boon to companies looking for specific skills to meet a current need. If a candidate can demonstrate the listed experience and abilities, it is likely that candidate will be successful with the task.” – Julius A.
