Leading Change Management - what this Program is About...

Many managers overlook the importance of developing change capabilities, till change is thrust upon them. But whether change is imposed or something you introduce, the ability to manage change and make it happen rapidly and smoothly is one of the keys to organisational vitality, renewal and success.

Being able to lead people through change is a critical skill for successful leaders – knowing how to identify when change is needed, planning how to best go about it, and at the same time, converting confusion, anxiety and resistance into constructive change energy.  

Change leaders are instrumental in communicating the change vision, creating commitment to it, getting people into action and leading them through the change. The focus of this program is on learning about how to lead change and guide others through it.

While there’s no singular, all encompassing model for change, this program looks at leading change through the lens of Senge’s 5 Learning Disciplines – Shared Vision, Mental Models, Personal Mastery, Team Learning and Systems Thinking. It shows you a number of different models and roadmaps for change we’ve found useful in different ways for different situations and provides down-to-earth insights into some critical change management practices for facilitating change.

‘Thanks for a great workshop - one of the best I've attended over the years. Course structure and content was excellent. The program helped identify a change plan and I’m applying the tools right here and now.
