FCM 5 - Sponsorship, Stakeholders & Communication (PowerPoint PPT)

This is Module 5 of 8 of my popular Fundamentals of Change Management Course.

Module 5 contains 70 slides with the following 3 sessions:

•  Session 1 "Sponsorship" – Provides details of the critical role of a sponsor plus their key roles plus an outline of their key activities during projects + a case study.
•  Session 2 "Stakeholders" – Introduces a simple stakeholder engagement model and how stakeholders can be analysed and managed + a case study.
•  Session 3 "Communication" – Describes a simple model and how to create change awareness plus what different channels can be used + a case study.

This and the other 7 modules are the actual slides I use during the course but these will come without context. You also need to be aware that these slides include the animations that I use during the course when you view them in "presentation" mode. The slides have been made available due to strong customer demand for those that prefer the form of learning through reading which focuses on the written word. Reading and writing learners succeed with written information on worksheets, presentations, and other text-heavy resources. They are note-takers and perform strongly when they can reference written text.

Course feedback to date shows the following:

•  WORKSHOP LEADER (not necessarily relevant to this online version but included for completeness) – Was knowledgeable, Presented professionally, Was easily understood, Was enjoyable to listen to, Was easily able to answer questions = 96% Strongly Agree or Agree
•  WORKSHOP CONTENT – Was well structured and thought through, Provided a variety and depth of content, Was at the right level of detail, The slides were easily understandable, The exercise was relevant and worthwhile, The case studies were useful and added-value = 93% Strongly Agree or Agree
•  WORKSHOP OUTCOMES – I acquired new knowledge, I learned new ways of thinking, I learned new ideas to use in the workplace, I want to learn more about Change Management, I would recommend others to participate

The module also covers the four key project phases: initiation, planning, execution, and closing. It provides actionable insights into sponsor challenges and stakeholder assessment techniques.
