Which change management model will you use and what stages of the model apply here at this point of the project implementation (e.g., Lewin’s Freeze)
Aim and objectives: 150 words maximum
- The project aim should inform the reader about the main intention of the project.
- The objectives should be ‘SMART’ and provide the reader with a clear insight into what you are hoping to achieve. (Think ahead about how you may evaluate the objectives.) Please state the objectives as bullet points.
Discussion of Project Implementation
I have suggested the PDSA cycle as a means of structuring your project implementation, but you may use any other structure that you have researched and prefer. Whatever structure you use, offer your rationale for its use (not because I suggested it).
Plan: 500 words maximum
Here you will need to state how you plan to introduce the project so, consider the following points (these are listed in no specific order, so you must plan and organise your ideas and writing to flow logically):
- Identify the Stakeholders and their importance to the project – see national UK policies on patient and public involvement and other relevant literature that supports the engagement of stakeholders
- You may wish to use a SWOT analysis grid – keep it simple and concise as the words here are included in the total word count. Consider how you plan to mitigate any threats in the SWOT analysis / Forcefield analysis if used.
- State how you will communicate your plan to the relevant parties
- Offer an indication of timeline of implementation of the stages of your project and when it will end? Do not give a description, instead use a Gannt chart or any other type of project timeline and place that in the appendix, correctly labelled.
- Which change management model will you use and what stages of the model apply here at this point of the project implementation (e.g., Lewin’s Freeze)
- Which leadership / management style you adopt at this point of the implementation (e.g., autocratic)
