Topic:
Managers traditionally have had the task of contributing to the effectiveness of their organisation, while maintaining high morale. Today, these roles often have to be balanced off with the reality of implementing changes imposed by senior management. Managers who have an understanding of the dynamics of change are better equipped to analyse the factors at play in their own particular circumstances, and to adopt practical strategies to deal with resistance.
Topics will include:
- The change process
- The pace of change and the pace At which people adopt change
- The pyramid response to change
- Resisting and welcoming change
- “The Four-Room Apartment of change” and how to use it
Controlling change: givens, negotiables and controllables
