Overview
No matter if you are the queen bee at your company or a worker bee, change affects everyone. In dealing with change, people must address their own thoughts, feelings and behaviours first to be able to go through the labyrinth of change.
There are loads of books and training programs addressing organizational change. The different thing about this training program is that it focuses on personal reactions and emotions and what it actually feels like during a workplace change or a personal change. It provides you with a logical framework to assist you in gaining perspective on the change situation you are facing and its impact and helping you develop insight that will guide you through the transition.
The goal of this one day program is to help you take responsibility for how you react and respond to a change by giving you a set of tools and techniques of self-awareness and assessment to light up the curves and sometimes bumpy ride on your road to change.
Course objectives:
By the end of this training course participants will be able to:
- Clearly understand how it feels like during a change situation.
- Understand and follow a six step process to help you take responsibility for how you react and respond to change.
