About the workshop
The workshop will equip you with all the skills you need to respond to what is changing in your environment and to plan and implement strategies that improve systems, adapt behaviour and achieve organisational objectives. You will identify how your organisation tends to manage change and learn to choose from a variety of alternative approaches that work with systems and relationships. You will learn to develop strategies that incorporate the most important factors, attract resources and gain support from stakeholders. You will gain insights into your approach to leadership, power, authority and change how your behaviour impacts on others and contributes to organisational culture. You will appreciate how to use emotional intelligence and intuition to identify what is important and to become flexible and adaptive.
What will the workshop cover
The workshop will include exercises to diagnose existing practices and attitudes and help you understand key change theories and their practical implementation. The programme has been designed to be flexible so that it can be adjusted wherever practicable to meet your requirements and those of your organisation.
