Course Description

Although a cliché, it is true – the only thing that remains the same is – change. Change is constant and generated by new technology, staff turnover, mergers and acquisitions, security threats, new products and services, or realignment within the organization. In addition to change being handed down, sometimes, change bubbles up internally in the form of continuous improvement or process improvement. Leaders are expected to do some level of change management for organizational change and also understand when changes outside the organization, such as changes in family situations, affect a team member’s capacity for change. This course will help leaders understand change theory and their reactions to change so that they can help their team members positively and productively handle changes in the workplace.
