The Organizational Change Management Lead (OCM Lead) will manage a portfolio of client engagements, working with the customer to defi ne the target state vision post-change, document the plan to get to the target state, and enable the users to adapt to the change with minimal disruption.

Development of the collateral as defined by the OCM plan

The OCM Lead plays an indispensable role in developing, driving and implementing the OCM plan.
