Change Metrics can help identify and address these challenges early.
4. METRIC SUCCESS: A SIMPLE PROCESS
1. Engage leaders in understanding, appreciating and
committing to measuring change progress
2. Create and prioritize metrics and the timing of collection and
reporting
3. Finally, communicate results powerfully through a scorecard
and ongoing communications

5. WHY MEASURING THE CHANGE IS COOL
• Creates clearly defined and aligned picture of
success that everyone can understand
• Identifies challenges early-on
• Provides the opportunity to adjust your strategy
along the way with incoming feedback
• Gathers proof that your strategy is working which
builds engagement, provides helpful project
updates and makes your sponsor and project team
look great!

9. QUICK POLL:
What are the Biggest Obstacles to Measuring Change Success
1. Leadership or project team’s knowledge of how to
measure change success
2. Unable to clearly articulate project measurements due to
unclear project vision
3. Leadership and/or project team’s fear of accountability
4. No or limited change resources to create measurement
vehicles
5. If you have others…put them in the chat space

10. SPONSOR AND PROJECT TEAM ENGAGEMENT
• Get all the key sponsors engaged early
• Consider how to approach all key stakeholders
and especially likely resistors
• Engage team in use of metrics
through scorecards and communications

11. THE METRICS DISCUSSION
1. Invite key decision makers to the meeting.
Educate them on the purpose, process and payoff.
2. Create metrics that are outcome driven. Bring
possible examples for their effort. Assuming this
will take a while.
3. Prioritize the metrics to collect, the frequency to
measure and how to report out through scorecards
and communications.
