# Change Management – Creation Notes

**Last Updated:** 2026-02-21

## Summary

New lexikon post on **Change Management** (Veränderungsmanagement) created per implementation plan. Canonical slug: `change-management`. Priority 1 content gap (9 sources) in LEXIKON_CONTENT_GAPS. HR-focused lexikon entry (not IT/Agile project management). Covers definition, vs Organisationsentwicklung, Ziele/Gründe, Prozess, Modelle (Lewin, Kotter, Krüger, ADKAR), Arten, Widerstand, Erfolgsfaktoren, Rolle HR/Führung.

## Edge Cases

### Organisationsentwicklung
- **No Ordio post** for Organisationsentwicklung. Mention concept in content without internal link.
- Content includes H2 "Change Management vs Organisationsentwicklung" for SERP differentiation.

### PAA Handling
- **SISTRIX PAA on-topic** – HR-focused questions (Definition, Prozess, Modelle, Widerstand, Erfolgsfaktoren). No `paa-questions-manual.json` needed.
- If future PAA returns IT/Agile/Scrum: create `paa-questions-manual.json` with HR-focused questions (Definition, Prozess, Modelle, Widerstand, HR-Rolle, Erfolgsfaktoren). Run `collect-faq-research-data.php`.

### Scene Type
- **ABSTRACT** – Distinct from adjacent posts (corporate-social-responsibility, erschwerniszulage use DESK). Related topics (personalentwicklung, unternehmenskultur, teambuilding) use DESK, CAFE, SILHOUETTES.
- Change Management = transformation, Wandel – abstract transition/transformation fits topic meaning. Documented in IMAGE_PROMPT.md Scene Type section.
