Details
One of the most overlooked aspect of any new business intervention or project is the need to manage change. People are for the most part resistant to change and if they do not buy into your proposal it will most likely fail. Any organisation will benefit from intentional change management, as change itself is of course inevitable.
This one-day workshop will help you teach participants how to:
- Accept there are no normal or abnormal ways of reacting to change, but that we must start from where we are.
- 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. Change is not an intellectual issue but one that strikes at who you are.
- Recognize that before we can embrace the way things will be, we must go through a process of grieving, and of letting go of the way things used to be.
- See change as an opportunity for self-motivation and innovation.
- Identify strategies for helping change be accepted and implemented in the workplace.
