A new change initiative is being planned at an organization. Efforts are made by the change management lead to outline the case for change including the current opportunities, risks, consequences of the change, and the benefits of the change and how it aligns to the organization's strategic priorities. What is the next key action to be taken?
Once the case for change has been defined, ACMP recommends developing a clear vision of the future state. This provides a compelling picture of what success will look like, aligning stakeholders and guiding all downstream planning. Determining why the change is required (A) is already covered by the case for change. The charter (B) formalizes scope later, and success criteria (D) are developed after the vision is articulated. Thus, option C reflects the logical next step.
(Reference: ACMP Standard, Process Group 2 -- Formulate; Activities: Define case for change, then articulate a vision of the future state.)
