1) Change management requires key roles beyond just a change manager, including executive sponsors, managers and supervisors, employees, and the project team. 2) Each role plays an important part in managing change - executive sponsors communicate and support change, managers coach employees and provide feedback, employees adopt changes, and the project team provides change information. 3) The change management team's primary role is to assess readiness, develop strategies, and create plans to enable the other roles to effectively manage change.

- 3. What is a director without the cast of actors?
- 4. What is a cook without all the right ingredients?
- 5. Now, what is a change manager without the other key change management players? While there are many similarities between project management and change management (both are used to implement successful projects, both use a process, both use a set of prescribed tools), there is one major difference – a project manager applies project management on a project (a single resource can do the activities associated with project management), but it takes more than just a change management team or team member to effectively manage change.
- 7. Note that most project management tasks are completed by the project manager. However, note that most change management tasks are completed by someone other than the change management team. In the case of project management, the processes and tools are applied by a person working on the project team called the “project manager”. In the case of change management, the processes and tools applied by key individuals in the organization including executive sponsors, managers and supervisors, employees and the project team. The change management team is the architect of the change management plans, but they are not the “actors”. The change management team enables the other actors required for successful change management.
- 8. Change management, therefore, is not simply collection of processes and tools applied by a change manager or a change management team. Change management is the implementation of processes and tools that are applied by key players in the organization.
- 9. Change management requires each of the ‘gears’ in the picture to fulfill their specific role.
