Course Overview

Transformational change requires leaders and managers to think of the organization, first and foremost, as a source of strategy implementation and to achieve important business priorities. This means that we must learn to lead and manage change instead of feeling lost in it! The objective of change management is to support organization members and stakeholders to adapt to a new vision, mission, process, and systems, as well as to effectively manage resistance to the changes.

This programme explains the tools and techniques for successfully leading and managing organizational transformational change efforts. You will learn why ‘resistance to change’ is a myth and come to understand why change efforts are often not successful and what to do about that. Finally, participants will learn the different approaches that have been proven to be effective in leading and managing transformational change in dynamic organisations.
