None of us can escape change, but savvy trainers understand that it is well worth developing strategies to manage what comes with it! Everyone has to manage change, whether they embrace it or not, and so our approach is that having tools to help embrace it lead to the best outcomes. Change Management: Change and How to Deal with it courseware and training materials are designed for everyone in the workplace who needs a course on such topics as the stages of change, pacing, dealing with resistance, adaptive strategies, approaching changes as an opportunity for growth, and more.
This two day course is designed to expose delegates to a wide variety of effective change strategies. The emphasis is on experiential change and delegates take part in many exercises which illustrate the concepts of change and transition.

Course Details
This two-day workshop will help you teach participants how to:
- Accept there are no normal or abnormal ways of reacting to change, but that we must start from where we are.
- See change not as something to be feared and resisted but as an essential element of the world to be accepted.
- Understand that adapting to change is not technical but attitudinal. Change is not an intellectual issue but one that strikes at who you are.
- Recognize that before we can embrace the way things will be, we must go through a process of grieving, and of letting go of the way things used to be.
- See change as an opportunity for self-motivation and innovation.
- Identify strategies for helping change be accepted and implemented in the workplace.
