Embracing Change
More than ever before, organizations are evolving, innovating and changing to stay alive and competitive. They’re depending on their employees to accept and support difficult changes in leadership, technologies, policies or management approaches vital to future success. Unfortunately, most employees initially resist workplace change and defend the status quo--it’s human nature. With this training program, you will learn how to avoid resistance that can seriously impact your efforts, productivity, morale, and ensure you and/or your employees don’t just “survive” inevitable changes in the workplace – but flourish in the process. Participants will learn how to understand and overcome resistance to change, the secrets to working effectively when everything is changing, how to increase risk-taking behavior and become more flexible, the 5 stages of adjustment following a dramatic change, how to build “personal hardiness” and use it as a buffer against stressful events, and ways to handle workplace anxiety.
