Abstract
Project management is not just about having the competencies to manage processes. It is also about having the competencies to manage the people being part of a project. Focusing on people and human behavior in project management, whether it is a team or an organization, is seen as important as planning the process to succeed with a project. [1]
According to Marshall Goldsmith, coach, and member of the 50 Thinkers Hall of Fame, an essential part of managing people to get them to deliver the best, is by providing them with feedback - with so-called “feedforward”, focusing on changing the future behavior instead of focusing on the past. [2]
To help with this, Marshall Goldsmith has created a tool designed to help change future behavior, referred to as “The wheel of Change”. It is a two-dimensional wheel consisting of pre-dominant axes: “change or keep” and “positive or negative”. The other dimension divides the wheel into even four additional quadrants: creating, eliminating, accepting, preserving. These quadrants help identify and plan future behavior changes to reach the desired state.
This article gives a brief insight into human behavior, as this plays an essential part in managing teams, just as processes. Further, the article will provide an overview of the general characteristics of the Wheel of Change and how managers can use it in project, program, and portfolio management. Finally, the article will include a reflection on the use of The Wheel of Change as a tool for managing people and behavior in projects by focusing on the actual usage compared to other tools.
