Presentation:

"Establishing Change Management Competency: Past Lessons Learned and the Manitoba eHealth Journey"

The movement to establish change management competency within organizations is progressing but it continues to challenge organizations as they strive to realize benefits on their change initiatives. Increasingly, organizations are including change management resources on projects as a way to achieve identified benefits.

This presentation considers the establishment of change management competency within organizations. Both the planned implementation of the Prosci methodology and sharing of lessons learned from mistakes made along the way will be highlighted.

The experience of Manitoba eHealth in their initial journey will be profiled. Manitoba eHealth is a provincial program that works collaboratively with health care organizations to implement and support information and communication technology based business solutions. As part of a larger strategic initiative of implementing best practice process improvements using the Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) framework, Manitoba eHealth is currently building change management competency internally and with contract employees using the Prosci methodology.
