Capability Is Built Through Practice

APS creates opportunities to practice what matters, explore different approaches, work through realistic challenges, and develop capabilities that translate directly into stronger delivery.

Put Your Skills to the Test

Stop Collecting Credentials. Start Building Evidence.

Knowing change management is different from doing the work. This Bootcamp gives you a realistic transformation to work through, decisions to make, data to analyze, and professional deliverables to produce.

Take the Challenge

Program Outline

Work through a realistic organizational transformation from beginning to end. Each week, you’ll analyze new information, make critical decisions, and build a professional deliverable that shows how you approach the work.

Define Value

Weeks 1-2

Establish what the transformation must achieve, quantify the value at stake, and define the workforce outcomes required for success. Deliver a Value Realization Charter that gives leaders a clear business case, measurable outcomes, and a basis for evaluating whether the transformation is delivering value.

Understand the Impact

Weeks 3-4

Determine how the transformation will affect roles, processes, behaviors, and ways of working across the organization, and identify where readiness and people risks threaten execution. Deliver an Impact & Readiness Assessment that shows leaders where exposure is greatest and where action is required.

Lead the Leaders

Weeks 5-6

Diagnose leadership alignment, clarify decision rights and accountability, and determine the leadership actions required to remove barriers and drive execution. Deliver a Leadership Alignment & Activation Plan that turns sponsorship from a concept into specific decisions, actions, and ownership.

Equip the Employees

Weeks 7-8 

Translate workforce impacts, readiness gaps, and performance requirements into a targeted approach for communication, learning, manager support, and reinforcement. Deliver a Workforce Enablement Plan that defines what each impacted group needs to successfully perform in the future state.

Sustain Change

Weeks 9-10 

Define how you will monitor, reinforce, and correct adoption, performance, and business outcomes after implementation, with clear thresholds and ownership for action. Deliver a Sustainment & Value Realization Plan that gives leaders a mechanism to protect adoption and ensure the transformation produces measurable results.
