Change overload and how to avoid it
Mike Pryor – Principal Consultant, Bestoutcome
These days it feels like everything we get asked to do is top-priority. But how do
you prioritise when everything is top-priority, and what happens when the list of
top-priority changes just keeps growing? This is the modern equivalent of the “straw
that broke the camel’s back”, and we’re seeing more and more clients becoming
overloaded with change.
Mike describes clients who have adopted an outcome-driven heat-map approach
to programmes and projects, which allows them to manage the amount of change
underway at any time and to balance their priorities and resources effectively.
