Change Management - Change and How to Deal With It

Suggested maximum number of participants per session: 12

Change is something that excites people who love opportunities for growth. For some, change is harder to adjust to and can lead to expressions of resistance and anxiety. This course will inspire and give the tools for participants to confidently deal with change and help them turn feelings of resistance into resilience. Participants will better understand their pivotal role in the organization and find their own sense of purpose through the change process.

This will be an interactive session, giving the participants the tools, mindset and techniques needed to feel more confident with change. Breakout groups will also be used to help create a safe environment for participants to engage.
