Which is a sub-element of Managing the Transition?

• A. Activity planning
• B. Mission
• C. Overcoming resistance
• D. Providing resources for change

Answer: (A)

Managing the Transition is about turning a change initiative into a concrete sequence of actions that move the organization from the current state to the desired future state. The sub-element that fits best here is activity planning because it involves breaking the change into specific tasks, identifying dependencies, setting milestones and deadlines, and assigning responsibilities. This creates a clear roadmap for implementation and a way to track progress.

The mission explains why the change is needed and what it aims to achieve, and it’s typically established earlier to align stakeholders. Overcoming resistance focuses on addressing people-side barriers during implementation. Providing resources for change is essential for enabling the plan, but the act of outlining and sequencing the steps to execute the transition is the core activity planning component.
