Duration: 60 minutes | Speaker: Marcia Zidle |
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, 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, 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 or 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.
Areas Covered
Is change occurring in and for your organization as it navigates through the uncertainties of 2025? Of course, it is! Are you, as a leader, manager or supervisor trying to get a handle on your changing workplace and workforce? Are these changes causing stress or conflicts for you and your team? And, most importantly, are you trying to get all your employees on board the change train that’s rapidly heading out of the station so that they not only go through the motions, but also actually “buy into” the changes that are necessary?
Because the pace of change has speeded up, managing change is increasingly a part of every supervisor’s, line manager’s or team leader’s job – not just that of top management. That’s because people are the core of the change management process. The ultimate goal of change management is to drive results by engaging employees and inspiring them to adopt a new way of working.
Therefore, to lead and facilitate change means learning how to manage the human side of change – the “people” issues. Most people don’t resist the idea of change as much as they resist being changed. The challenge is to turn it around – to change that resistance to commitment.
This practical, problem-solving webinar will provide you with the tools and strategies for making change work in your team, department and even throughout the whole company.
