Understanding Reactions to Change

2 Hour Live Masterclass (Remote)
Understanding reactions to change is a vital skill for anyone dealing with people in a change situation.  Especially managers and leaders, who need to make difficult decisions while bringing their team along on the change journey.  Every decision and action takes on added significance and perceived impact in the change environment as team members struggle to assess the impact the change will have on them, as a team and individually.
The leader who understands how people react and why will have greater success with the decisions and actions she takes to navigate her team through the change.  She will understand what is really driving these reactions and be able to put strategies in place to ease her team members’ worries and concerns and engage their creativity and experience.
This Masterclass gives delegates insights to how people react in change situations and strategies for a leader to communicate and lead effectively.

Who should attend our 2-hour Understanding Reactions to Change Masterclass?

The Understanding Reactions to Change Masterclass is suitable for any manager, supervisor or team leader who may lead people or a team through change either now or in the future and who wants to understand how to anticipate people’s reactions so they can implement the right strategies to lead their team through the change.

This course is also suitable for new and aspiring managers and supervisors who want to develop themselves in readiness for a leadership role and for non-managers who just want to understand change where they work.

It is recommended as a first course for team leaders, supervisors and managers who may be attending for the first time or as a refresher for those who have attended this training before or have more experience.

There are no prerequisites for attending this course.
