What is Global, Remote, Organization Change?
“Change management is a comprehensive, cyclic and structured approach
to transitioning individuals, groups and organizations from a current state
to a future state with intended business benefits”
“It helps integration and alignment of people, processes, structures,
culture and strategy”
CHANGE MANAGEMENT–AN INDUSTRY-STANDARD DEFINITION
Defined by the PMI in: Managing Change in Organizations: A Practice Guide

Organization Change Management (OCM)COMMUNICATION IS THE KEY
Situation Solution/Actions
Multiple countries and time zones
Create and agree a formal communication plan (reporting, core and review team call).
Differing skills and focusProvide SPTs and run briefing and demonstration sessions before starting.
No common understandingConduct maturity assessment of PPM adoption based on PMBOK processes, questionnaires, reviews.
10
Requirements gathering teams Needs global core team to define functionality/capabilities requirements (single
functionality/capability focus) Each country needs a review team across all functionality/capability
Requirements gathering sessions Needs video conferencing and strong technology support Flexible schedule across countries with repeat sessions Record and share all sessions Consolidated requirements from the core team are reviewed and approved by the
review team(s)
GLOBAL, REMOTE WORKSHOPS NEED STRONG TECHNOLOGY

Organization Change Management (OCM)When Words Will Not Work Use Pictures And Prototypes.
Situation Solution/Actions
Different languagesBe pictorial where possible due to differing languages, mix of pictures and demonstrations.
PrototypingUse iterative prototyping of configuration to firm up designs and common understanding.
SchedulesAllow for extended and flexible schedules due to multiple reviews within multiple countries, including overnight sessions.

WHEN WORDS WILL NOT WORK USE PICTURES & PROTOTYPES

Testing used as briefings for mentors (core and review teams)
Needs agreed test plans, cases, report(s) and cycles
Involves both core and review teams
Core teams test, review teams check test results and provide governance
Takes a long time, be prepared to reconfigure and retest
TESTING IS A LEARNING EXPERIENCE WITH A FORMAL CADENCE

Rollout of CA Project & Portfolio Management (CA PPM) functionality was done
with teams in Waves, rather than all at once across all development teams.
– Aimed to not overwhelm product development
– Enabled focus/training for specific teams
– Allowed for more efficient oversight of migration to new tool
Waves were grouped across locations and product teams based on current
status of the product program
GLOBAL DEPLOYMENT NEEDS MULTIPLE WAVES
Organization Change Management (OCM)

Results
The implementation and rollout of CA PPM has driven: – Improved tracking of Polycom development work– Standardized program management processes– Improved and readily accessible reporting/dashboards – Major change efforts within Polycom– CA PPM as The Single Source of the Truth
17
Recommendations
Communication is the key.
Global, remote workshops need strong and reliable technology.
When words will not work use pictures and prototypes.
Testing is a learning experience with a formal cadence.
Global deployments need multiple waves.
Be prepared to repeatedly teach/facilitate similar content.
WHEN PLANNING GLOBAL ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE, REMEMBER...
