How Prosci Deploys Research-Backed Change Management to Unlock Return on Investment
The video spotlights Prosci’s research‑driven change‑management approach, emphasizing its role in helping banks translate cutting‑edge technology investments into measurable returns. While banks often lead in tech adoption, the real challenge lies in ensuring people embrace and use new systems effectively. Prosci leverages three decades of empirical research to design methodologies that address the people side of change. It offers training for a spectrum of stakeholders—from project managers to executive sponsors—building internal capability to manage resistance, accelerate adoption, and safeguard ROI. A key point highlighted is Prosci’s multi‑layered service model: consulting, advisory, and coaching. As the speaker notes, “We can coach anyone from being a project manager or a program manager all the way to being a primary sponsor for a project or a change as well.” This flexibility allows organizations to tailor support to specific roles and maturity levels. The implication for financial institutions is clear: integrating Prosci’s proven change‑management framework can reduce implementation risk, shorten time‑to‑value, and ultimately unlock higher returns on technology spend.
