Trends I am seeing that will influence change management’s future-

• Stakeholders get it- often more so than their leaders
• Executives are trying to establish control over the various organic change movements within their organizations
• External consultants are endlessly debating the definitions of project management (PM) and Organizational Change Management (OCM)
• The Big 3+ firms are subbing independents for strategy and high level change work
• PMO’s are being used less and less as the placement area for change agents and change management consultants
