In our fast-paced and increasingly uncertain world, change can often feel like a matter of survival. But with nearly 75% of organisations expected to multiply the types of major change initiatives they will undertake in the next three years, learning how to manage change is an essential skill. With the right mindset though, it can become less of a threat and more of an exciting opportunity for growth and development. Managers have an important role to play when it comes to managing change, by supporting team members to meet the psychological challenges and learn to thrive.

In this virtual workshop, we consider why change can be so challenging and explore some of the common responses to change. We examine how managers can support their teams through the implementation of change. Participants will leave with an understanding of psychological theory around the process, along with practical steps they can take to manage change in a way that helps individual team members to thrive rather than just survive — setting them and your organisation up for future success!
