Change Agent Sources

Dec. 19, 2013

What are the sources of change management professionals?

During the 2013 Change Connect Symposium produced by the Association of Change Management Professionals Pacific Northwest Chapter, we facilitated a workshop on finding and developing change agents. In the workshop about 40 change management professionals divided into six groups to list their collective thoughts on four issues.

The four issues are:

Required competencies of a change management professional
Sources of change management talent
Activites to develop change management competency
Compensation and retention activities

This is the second of four blogs on the results. What are the sources of change management professionals?
