Description

“Our dilemma is that we hate change and love it at the same time.

What we really want is for things to remain the same but get better.”

Sydney J. Harris - American journalist. (1917 – 1986).

Change is constant in our lives, yet our ability to resist it, avoid or even stop it is also constant. But why? And how do we fix this?

This workshop examines the many challenges change brings and identifies the various types of people in a change process. We will brainstorm all the possible reasons for resistance to change and discuss our experiences with those who were resistant to the idea of change.

We then look to work positively on solving or at least reducing all the negative aspects of change and positioning change in a far more positive light.

In some cases, the impending change will upset pretty much everyone in the organisation, and we need to know how to mitigate its impacts. In fact, we need to understand how sometimes we can agree with most people's thinking, understand their resistance and negativity, and still be able to turn things around to prove that the change needs to happen.

Changes will happen, and whilst we can’t remove all the negatives from each person's perspective, we can plan, prepare, and manage change surprisingly well when we have the tools and processes to do so.

Always remember to get your people to think about the long game.

Who Should Attend and Why?

Who? - All Leaders and Managers who have to manage change.

Why? - Change is costly, and if you’re going to spend money and use resources, you need to ensure you get the best ROI possible. When change impacts many of your people, it may be unwelcome and unwanted, but if it is right for the organisation, you need to know how to position it, advertise it, and sell it.

Don’t hide away from those who push back against change. Come along and chat with us to understand how those who push against change can be your greatest ally as you plan and prepare the whole organisation for the impending journey of change.

Workshop delivery and venue

When you consider the content we deliver, we are sure you will understand why we always prefer to deliver our workshops, courses and programmes face-to-face.

Face-to-face workshops and courses can be held at a location of your choice or, if you wish, a central UK location, such as the Macdonald Burlington Hotel in Birmingham, located directly across from the Birmingham New Street train station.

We can deliver our workshops, courses and programmes online, although this will mean splitting elements into manageable learning events to suit the online environment.
