Lead Change with Confidence!
Learn how to help teams grow through change. You will start with engaging top leaders to agree upon the future state vision. Gain both hard and soft skills to help transform whatever you are working to change as you engage early adopters and leverage their energy to develop the rules. Explore the systems and structures needed to support the change and develop an action plan to affect attitudes and sustain a long term improvement.
Change is a process
People and organizations do not change what they have been doing with the flip of a switch. Leaders who give the organization the right support and tools to go through the process of change, will see a more sustained improvement.
Go with the Energy!
When leading change, it's critical that you learn where the energy is and encourage the early adopters to take risk, define the rules and provide feedback to improve.
Display Confidence
You play a critical role as the leader. Be bold in your vision, actively listen to concerns and help people make the transition from the old to new way of doing things.
YOU are key to inspiring people to change
Change leadership requires leaders who are adept at setting and communicating a vision as well as excellent listeners who adopt quickly to the 'on the ground' situation. We will share the process to lead change and also offer the most effective tools and templates that you can use immediately with your team.
