# Tasks
<a name="tasks"></a>

To set the foundation, you will primarily focus on the first three points of the framework (highlighted in the following diagram) to drive how people in the organization accept and adopt a new way of leading, working, and adding value. The other points will become increasingly important as you move into migrating at scale and driving long-term adoption.

## Key focus areas for setting the stage
<a name="focus-areas"></a>
+ Develop integration guiding principles and define key cultural elements to be highlighted throughout the migration and modernization effort.
+ Analyze cultural compatibilities and differences across organizations and geographies, and between the current state and the targeted future state. 
+ Consider culture integration initiatives that could create greater unity and alignment to long-term vision. (Are there teams or locations that are vulnerable to being left behind, or the reverse?) 
+ Identify and engage a cross-functional group of leaders who together can drive change, define the future-state operating model, and lead the organization from multiple vantage points.
+ Define a set of guiding principles to anchor the organization to, and set the foundation for, cloud governance down the road.
+ Use the AWS OCM 6-Point Framework and Essentials Toolkit to apply tools and processes to the people side of change:
  + Identify the change leader(s) who will own driving people adoption.
  + Conduct impact assessment: internal, cross functional, and external.
  + Identify key risks, interdependencies, and barriers to integration.
  + Develop a change strategy to address risks, leverage strengths, and support the integration.
  + Develop a training and engagement plan, and set the stage for capacity enablement.
  + Develop a communication plan.
