Benefits

An understanding of the impact of change on the psychological contract between leaders and their team is at the heart of this experiential, practical workshop. Explore why change creates resistance and difficult behaviour, then develop a pragmatic plan of action to ensure people are quickly re-oriented and re-engaged with their organisation. This course gives the opportunity to honestly share your own experiences and feelings about the recent changes in your organisation, how you may be sub-consciously impacting your teams and how you can lead them more effectively to ensure lasting and meaningful change.
