Some of the key topics include:

Embracing Organizational Change

The pace of life and business has intensified at an alarming rate. In order to keep up, organizations have had to make sweeping changes in strategy and functions. Unfortunately, the associates who have to implement these ideas don’t always have the tools they need to be effective.  This program will help your team members to get a better understanding of the change process and how their responses will affect their success in the organization. In addition, we will teach them how to embrace change and help them to develop a personal strategy for productively moving through the process.

 

 

  • Understand how change affects our work and our emotions as well as unproductive reactions to change and the avoidance strategies people use
  • How to control our attitude and take ownership of new processes and ideas

  • Develop a personal action plan regarding organizational change, including an analysis of changes that are most challenging and the development of strategies to overcome them

We’ll also take the time to practice this process through the use of specifically written case studies. Key areas we cover:
