Digital: Digital Champions: dealing with resistance to change (virtual workshop being delivered via MS Teams)
March 6 @ 9:30 am - 12:30 pm
Objective and Aims
This bespoke half-day workshop will provide an introduction to change management with a clear focus on reducing resistance by supporting individuals as they negotiate the impact of change using a range of practical exercises.
Learners will build an understanding of individual responses to change, intra-personal conflict and personal decision-making. They will explore why they and others respond to change in particular ways, including recognised trends and groupings, including the impact of change on team culture.
Through group discussion and tutor-led input , learners will identify a range of individual responses at each stage of the change curve and explore strategies for managing the individual or group responses.
By the end of the session, learners will:
- Understand individual and group “think” in response to change
- Recognise the difference between individual and workplace culture responses
- Identify appropriate interventions and strategies
- Understand how to provide support leading to sustainable change
- Recognise how to challenge others with compassion and empathy
