Episode 56 — Use change management to protect benefits when priorities, teams, or systems shift (3A2)
This episode focuses on using change management as a governance tool to protect business benefits when priorities shift, teams reorganize, vendors change, or systems evolve in ways that can quietly erode expected outcomes. You’ll learn how governance defines what changes require review, what evidence is needed to approve changes, and how to evaluate impact on value delivery, risk exposure, compliance obligations, and operational resilience. We’ll cover practical controls such as change impact assessments, stakeholder approvals aligned to decision rights, testing and validation expectations, and communication and training requirements that prevent control breakdowns during transitions. Real-world scenarios include rushed releases that bypass testing, scope changes that reduce benefits without leadership awareness, and platform changes that introduce data handling risks not reflected in policies. For the CGEIT exam, you’ll practice selecting answers that strengthen governance over change by preserving traceability, enforcing accountability, and ensuring that benefits, risks, and controls are reassessed whenever material change occurs.
