Leading Organization Change Seminar

Change is a constant in today’s business environment. Leading teams through organizational change requires a strategic approach to maintain high performance, morale, and retention while minimizing the initial negative impact of change on productivity.

Our Leading Organization Change Seminar focuses on the predictable dynamics of change, communication based on the productivity curve, overcoming resistance, building resilience for leaders and individual contributors, and accelerating the successful implementation of change(s) in the organization. We equip managers and individual contributors to:

• Enhance communication about the nature of change
• Optimize productivity during transition(s)
• Retain key talent during the the transformation
• Identify and overcome resistance to change
• Develop and support Real Change Leaders
• Build a resilient, change-adaptive culture

This 1.5–2 day program is tailored to your organization’s needs and often includes a senior management debriefing to support the immediate implementation of strategies and tactics to build a change-adaptive culture.

This is among the most difficult and emotionally complex leadership challenges from an organizational development perspective. Our years of experience in successfully implementing this program globally differentiate us from the competition.
