"Interpreting the CMMI: A Process Improvement Approach, Second Edition"


Gee, aren??™t we a lot of fun? You can??™t take us anywhere.
Change Management
We have avoided talking about change management in this book. By ???change
management,??? we don??™t mean managing change as discussed in the CMMI process
areas (PAs). The CMMI talks about managing changes to requirements in the
Requirements Management PA; about managing systemic changes in Configuration
Management; and about managing changes to management plans in Project
Planning and in Project Monitoring and Control. That is not the kind of change
management we need to discuss.
The type of change management that needs to be addressed is that of changing
the culture in your organization. There are many books on this subject, most of
which will have you determine what type of organizational paradigm you match
(e.g., open, closed, random, synchronous), the type of management style prevalent
(e.g., dictator, collaborative, charismatic), and the category of change implementation
you prefer (e.g., early adopter versus late adopter). Most of these books are
written by social scientists, not by engineers.
