Use the Association of Change Management Professionals (ACMP) The Standard for Change Management as a template to develop your plan for the organisation. Given the nature of the activities you will have to complete, it is important that you use a organisation that you are comfortable with. Choose a company with which you are not intimately familiar because you need to know about the dynamics of the organisation including the structure, culture and attitudes towards leadership and politics in order to apply all the theories and conceptual framework in ACMP.
Scenario
You have been assigned by your CEO to propose a plan for implementing a new IT system that is required for the company.
