Trends in Change for the year ahead 2018

What is happening in Change?

Change management is a young profession which continues to develop in scope, maturity and the number of those adopting it. In this paper I attempt to predict what I think will be the most impactful developments in business change management for 2018.

My thoughts are based on the demands I receive from clients in the private, public and not for profit sector, as well as a review of the latest insights from the big consultancies, universities and the professional body for change management, the Change Management Institute.

I think the key trends will include:

• More effort will be spent on explaining the value of change management
• Further integration with project management and links to Agile approaches
• Increasing maturity of change management as a practice
