A practical, people-first approach to leading through change
Change doesn’t happen in a vacuum – it affects real people in real ways. Whether you’re introducing a new system, shifting strategy, or restructuring teams, a change management plan helps guide your people from where they are now to where you need them to be.
A good change management plan helps you:
- Prepare your organisation for change
- Support your people through the transition
- Make sure the change actually sticks
How to Use This Change Management Plan Template
Managing change isn’t just about the steps, it’s about how people experience them. This plan combines agile change principles with Whole Brain® Thinking to help your team lead change with more clarity, collaboration and impact.
It’s designed to support all kinds of thinkers—whether they focus on data, structure, people or big-picture outcomes. When you plan for different perspectives, change is more likely to stick.
Use this as a practical tool—not just to plan change, but to lead it well. Work through each section, tailor it to your team, and adapt it as your change journey evolves.

Whole Brain® Thinking: Reflecting on Change Differently
Whole Brain® Thinking helps you lead change in a way that people don’t just follow but connect with.
By thinking across logic, process, people and purpose, you’ve built a change plan that’s:
- Clearer
- More inclusive
- Easier to adapt
- Better for your team
That’s the difference Whole Brain® Thinking makes. It turns change into something people can truly engage with.
