The framework for Whole-System Change can be divided into two phases:
Phase 1: Preparation
Phase 2: Implementation
The preparation phase culminates in the definition of a strategy for the implementation of a whole system change program and the identification of the objectives and the key performance indicators that will be used to measure the success of the program.
