Driving Change

Most leaders today recognise the ever-present element of change. Change in the workplace is a way of life. Yet few leaders are able to successfully create effective change in their teams, divisions, and organisations. If you’re a supervisor or manager, the way you respond during times of change is critical to your organisation’s success. And if you respond to change positively, then your team will respond positively and productively too.

In this interactive workshop featuring practical simulation exercises, you’ll learn how to master change leadership yourself. Learn critical concepts and practices, a solid change process and tools, and a set of tips and techniques that allow you to move beyond change.
