The Organizational Change Management (OCM) team within the Global Business Services (GBS) organization serves as a strategic enabler of transformation, driving successful adoption of critical initiatives across both GBS and the broader enterprise. Positioned at the intersection of strategy, operations, and culture, the OCM team ensures that change is not only implemented but embraced-empowering teams to evolve, adapt, and thrive.

By applying structured change methodologies, the OCM team leads efforts to assess organizational readiness, manage stakeholder engagement, and build change capability across functions. Whether supporting GBS-led transformations such as process optimization, digital enablement, or operating model shifts-or partnering with enterprise-wide programs like ERP implementations, manufacturing initiatives-the team plays a pivotal role in aligning people, processes, and technology.

Through proactive communication, process coaching, and targeted training, the OCM team fosters resilience and accelerates adoption, ultimately reducing disruption and maximizing business value. Their work ensures that change is not just managed - it's leveraged as a catalyst for growth, innovation, and continuous improvement.
