Overview

According to McKinsey & Company, a whopping 70% of digital transformations fail. Why? Technology project goals are often improperly defined and poorly communicated. This frightens and frustrates employees. Instead of adoption, you get resistance, misalignment across departments and competing interests without common goals. Change management (or lack of) can make or break modernization initiatives. However, sometimes it’s not a key focus but is a part of the project that you are in a crucial position to influence and make decisions on.

This online training course has been developed for IT leaders who are leading transformation and modernization initiatives in the public sector. It will focus on strategic planning and communication skills to influence and drive transformation forward. It will address the common challenges that IT specialists encounter and investigate some of the recurrent break points that cause projects to fail.

It will enable IT managers to effectively communicate and engage with stakeholders, including senior management, staff, and end-users, throughout the change process.
