Leading Successful Change Training

'The only thing that is constant is change.'
Hereclitus

Change is the only constant in modern organisations, so leading change successfully is a key skill for managers and leaders.
Change is complex, it requires the engagement of both the head and the heart, so leaders need to understand the technical process of change as well as being able to engage with and enthuse their people.
This highly practical and participative workshop takes you through the key skills and knowledge required to lead change successfully, focusing on your own change case study throughout so that you can take away practical actions for immediate use.

The workshop is structured around the world-famous change model devised by Professor John Kotter of Harvard University and explores some of the latest thinking around leading change.

Common questions we hear from those attending this course include:

How do I manage change?
How do I bring people with me on the change journey?
How can I overcome resistance to change?
How can I embed change and stop backsliding?

This is a highly participative and experiential workshop, in which you’ll learn a wide range of tools and approaches to help you lead successful change.
