This assignment is based on a case study called the Continental Computer Corporation (CCC) who is currently undergoing an exercise to include project management as a profession in the corporation.
Whilst CCC is a generally profitable and successfully functioning company, there are many internal problems that could lead to the downfall of CCC if not addressed adequately. There is a clear lack of proper leadership skills within CCC. This is evident by way of all three divisions within the corporation operating individually with no cross communication. Project management process, methodologies and governance are not practiced which leads to unclear project approval processes as well as inadequate resource and budget allocation. All divisions have their own organisational structures therefore there is lack of HR leadership. Job profiling and matching seems to be non-existent and salary grades and earning ranges are different within the three divisions although in some cases, the job description is the same.
Below are the recommendations for successful change within CCC which have been further detailed in Section 5 of this report: • CCC restructure process • Formulation of corporate business plan and strategy • Formulation of divisional business plans and strategies • Formulation of divisional operational strategies • Appoint HR leadership team • Develop talent management strategy • Develop incentive
