Some steering committee members do not understand the difference between project management and change management and, hence, the uniqueness of each…

ACMP explains that project management focuses on delivering outputs (scope, schedule, budget,

quality), whereas change management focuses on ensuring adoption, usage, and benefits realization

by addressing the people side of change. This difference in focus is the clearest and most

fundamental distinction. While differences in plans, stakeholders, and levels of focus exist, option A

captures the primary clarification needed: methodologies differ in focus and objectives.

change management outcomes.)
