Leading Change

The Problem this Training Solves

Is your workplace undergoing change?

Have you got a good handle on the change process as far as new systems and processes and organisational structure?

How well are you placed to help your managers and supervisors manage the psychological aspects of change? Are any of your people just not "getting it"? Or do you perceive it as a risk that too many people will not "Get it" about the change which is occurring?

It is normal for people to transition at different rates from the old reality to the new reality. Some go fast, embracing the change from the beginning. Some go slow and some seem to get stuck between the past and the future, never quite adjusting.

If your managers and supervisors are nor prepared for the different rates of transition and how to react to it and be proactive expecting it, you will have a high probability of turnover of good staff you did not want to lose.

Leading change will help your managers and supervisors learn new skills and be prepared to lead the psychological aspects of change as well as the transactional aspects.

Training Outline

Leading Change comprises for modules:

1. Theory of change
2. Leading yourself through change
3. Leading others through change
4. Practicing change conversations

Theory of change asks participants to reflect on change they have experienced and frames those changes in the Bridges Transition Model. The module helps participants understand the psychological processes going on during change.

Leading yourself through change asks participants are they ready for change. Are they ready as individuals and are their team ready as a whole?

Leading others through change reviews and provides tools for leading and managing people to deal with stress, conflict and resistance and to encourage resilience.

Practicing change conversations gives participants an opportunity to practice simple techniques to engage their staff in how the psychological aspects of change are affecting them.
