In this episode you will learn:

- All change requests must follow the formal Perform Integrated Change Control process once project baselines are established.

- A project manager's key duty is to conduct a comprehensive impact analysis across all project constraints, not just schedule and cost.

- The Change Control Board (CCB) has the ultimate authority to approve or reject changes to project baselines, not the project manager alone.

- The change log is the official register used to document and track the status of all change requests throughout the project lifecycle.

- On the PMP exam, any action that involves implementing a change without formal CCB approval is considered incorrect, regardless of the source or urgency of the request.
