The Mastery of Change: Accelerate Acceptance and Implementation of Large-Scale Change

Description:
Organizations today must be able to move more quickly than ever before. Changes in the market, initiatives by competitors, and technical innovations have a powerful impact on business performance and morale.

It is essential that leaders understand how to cope with and transcend the confusion and resistance that can result from changes that have become the norm: new technologies, reorganizations, relocations, revised missions, new philosophies, changing priorities,  varied management styles, new ownership, mergers, or acquisitions.

This one to two-day change workshop offers sophisticated tools for managers who want to learn to understand the impact of change in an organization and how to take action that will reduce resistance, stress and conflict, and accelerate the acceptance and implementation of large-scale change.

Participants will build skills to:

• Distinguish between change and transition.

• Develop a plan to manage change.

• Recognize the impact of change and transition on the organizational system and subsystems.

• Help employees see a positive vision of the possibilities associated with the change.

• Empower employees to achieve results.

• Communicate about the changes.

• Develop ownership of the change process.

• Be proactive in managing resistance to change.

Target Audience:
Mid-level to senior managers who are responsible for implementing a major change in their organization, whether or not they initiated the change.
