Change is part of the daily reality of organizations. Every day as a leader, you must face it, adjust to it and quickly determine how to capitalize on opportunities that arise. You must also reflect on your own agile “stance”, and interpersonal skills, and adapt when necessary, as well as determine when and how to step into action (acting instead of reacting).
While focusing on your own real change situations and simulated case studies, you will learn how to get buy-in from your team, and strategically avoid pitfalls, and how to wisely use proven change management techniques aiming at supporting and leading people as they go through change themselves.
