Is Your Workforce Change Ready? A Leader’s Guide to Quickly Engage All Employees & Drive Successful Change!

Change is a fact of life today in the workplace. It is not going away. New leaders will be asked to step up, jobs will be changed, new skills and capabilities must be developed, and employees will be uncertain about what’s going on and what’s their future. And in 2025 and beyond, the ability to manage change effectively will be even more important as organizations face increasing disruption from technology, globalization, evolving workforce expectations from different generations, new legislation, and other factors. And everyone, especially your front line, must be able to adapt and change quickly.  
But as common as change is, people may not “buy” for a variety of reasons. Even necessary and routine changes can be accompanied by squabbling, subtle undermining, behind the scenes foot dragging, needless political turf battles, - in short, symptoms of resistance. 
Therefore, due to the increased pressure to respond to change quickly, line and project managers must also wear the hat of change agents – leading the way to make change work – to be effective and productive and cost-effective. Effective change leaders do three things; they anticipate where things are moving, they facilitate the implementation of change, and they sustain momentum by taking charge and moving things ahead.
This webinar is for your managers or executives, project or team leaders, human resource professionals and directors, to fully understand the human elements of change and create effective strategies for engaging their people to overcome resistance and move forward with the change.
