Balancing act – the challenge of change

” A key challenge for organisations in today’s world is to succeed in balancing two parallel, competing imperatives:”

1. To maintain current business operations – profitability, service quality, productivity, market confidence etc. What we term “business as usual.”

2. To transform business operations in order to survive and compete in the future – looking forward and deciding how business change can be introduced to best effect for the organisation.

How do you balance these competing imperatives? That’s the skill of project management, controlling the time, quality, cost, scope, risk and benefits.

To be agile or to be prescriptive?

The secret of success is to foster the right mindset and to have the skills available be able to execute effectively.
