Making Impact Far and Wide
Booz Allen’s new thinking on change management is designed to
help government achieve results.
Government leaders and contracting officers express the same concern—many large
government programs fail to achieve results despite vision and good intentions. Some
common reasons: The skills of day-to-day leadership differ from skills needed to drive
organizational change… Many officials don’t know the expertise and work products
to ask for… And many consultants claim to be change management experts but have
limited exposure and experience with the range of change methods and models.
So, who do you listen to? How do you know who is versed in both the theory and
practice of this complex field? How can you get the benefit of leading-edge change
management thinking?
Basically, the issue boils down to this: There have been no established and
widely-accepted standards for change management… Until now.
Booz Allen Hamilton, a proven leader in strategy and technology consulting for
businesses and government organizations, is turning its attention and thought
leadership to helping clients succeed in implementing large change initiatives.
We believe government needs a new definition and approach to change
management that:
•
Recognizes the “people” element of change
•
Manages the risk of reduced productivity and effectiveness during and after
the change
•
Establishes consistent standards for managing change
•
Provides access to change management experts with depth and breadth
of knowledge

Booz Allen Can Help You be Ready for What’s Next
Based on our research and evaluation of current competency standards, educational
programs, tools, and methods, we have instituted a first-of-its-kind, graduate-level
program to train and certify change management advanced practitioners.
Booz Allen and Georgetown University’s McDonough School of Business have partnered
to create the Change Management Advanced Practitioner Certification. As with other
respected certification programs, the Change Management Advanced Practitioner
Certification drives industry standards, establishes a formal curriculum, and requires
skills demonstration, testing, independent evaluation, and continuing education.
Taught by some of the country’s leading business professors and Booz Allen change
management experts, the program couples academic theory with real-world experience
in delivering successful change to federal government organizations.
Certified Change Management Advanced Practitioners are facilitators of change in
complex environments. Armed with a diversified set of skills, knowledge, and practical
experience, they are trained in the entire suite of change capabilities and know when and
how to apply each to drive successful change. Their holistic approach provides planning,
execution, and work products in these areas:
•
Change strategy
•
Leadership engagement
•
Stakeholder analysis and engagement
•
Communications
•
Human capital and workforce impact
•
Learning and training
•
Process and infrastructure
•
Project management
•
Performance management
•
Measurement and evaluation
•
Change execution
Ask for a Certified Change Management Advanced Practitioner
Effective change management is about knowing what skills and expertise to ask for and
then leading and managing the entire spectrum of change in a way that gets results.
The Change Management Advanced Practitioner certification is designed to give you
the guidance you need to succeed in driving change. Next time, make sure you have a
certified Change Management Advanced Practitioner.
