Don't Look Now, But...: How to Manage Organizational Change
Available Formats
Program Overview
There are few guarantees in the workplace today, but change is one of them. "Just like it's always been" is quickly becoming a phrase of the past, often replaced by something such as, "We've streamlined the process." And so, kicking, screaming, and complaining, our workforce reluctantly adapts only to find itself being faced with change once again. This change management training course discusses the need for change, available change strategies, generating buy-in for those changes, and more.
Program Objectives
At this program's conclusion, participants should be able to:
- Describe ways of reacting to change.
- See change not as something to be feared and resisted but as an essential element of the world to be accepted.
- Understand that adapting to change is not technical but attitudinal.
- Recognize that before they can embrace the way things will be, they must go through a process of grieving and letting go of the way things used to be.
- See change as an opportunity for self-motivation and innovation.
- Identify strategies for helping change to be accepted and implemented in the workplace.
