Assessment 5 - Project 4 - Monitor and evaluate strategy implementation
Part A: Identify a barrier to change and mitigation strategy
This is a continuation of the scenario in Assessment 4.
You are the HR & Administration Manager of AWS. You have received a report from the Oz Careers team, outlining the feedback received from staff in the information session they conducted (Assessment Task 4).
Consult the notes you have made during the information session in Assessment Task 4, and assume that it is feedback from Oz Careers team.
Based on your notes, answer the following questions in the space below or in a separate typed document.
1. Identify at least one barrier to change that was evident during the information session conducted by Oz Careers, and the reason for the barrier.
2. Identify one mitigation strategy from your risk assessment, that you can apply to mitigate risk/ barrier to change.
3. Identify one modification you will make to the change management strategy, to mitigate the risk/ barrier to change, and to embed change.
Part B: Respond to barrier to change
Revise the change management strategy you prepared in Assessment Task 3, (based on changes identified in Part A, above.
Part C: Evaluate implementation of change strategy Scenario
It is now a month since AWS implemented the change management plan.
AWS had put in place a process to measure, evaluate and review the progress of the project plan against milestones, so that they can modify the project plan if required, to achieve change program objectives.
As part of your regular monitoring, you have conducted an evaluation of the progress made so far, and discover that the project really hasn't made much progress.
Assume that the first milestone was to prepare the following documentation within 1 month of project commencement:
• develop redundancy policy and procedure,
• prepare redundancy arrangement documentation
These tasks have not been completed. The policy and documentation has been developed, but is yet to be approved by the board. Thus, the milestone has not been met.
This is a serious matter as it will delay the commencement of the redundancy project, with consequences such as loss of morale and confusion amongst employees.
In addition, the company could also suffer losses by way of loss of productivity and towards the higher wages of full time permanent trainers, and without an approved redundancy policy AWS will not be able to implement the redundancies, as it is a regulatory requirement.
Task
Your task is to:
• prepare a monthly project status report, so that corrective actions are recorded and actioned on priority
• set a new deadline for completing this milestone and update the project timeline (prepared in Assessment 3) to reflect the new dates
• adjust any other related activities in the timeline, based on the modification you have made, and ensure that the project can be completed on time, with no more than 1 week delay.
