Overview:

Making sense of management initiatives is difficult enough when you are busy dealing with everyday issues and resolving operational issues. It can be impossible if you do not have models and paradigms to assess the initiatives. This workshop addresses that need by covering the most important ideas of modern management thinking about insights into managing change.

Learning Objectives:

  • Appreciate change management theories
  • Recognise why change is often resisted
  • Apply the use of those theories in practice
  • Consider different approaches to change
  • Understand how to plan and evaluate change

Course Content:

  • Strange resistors
  • Adaptive leadership
  • Developing your team
  • 6 phases of recovery
  • Your personality and impact

Also including:

  • Complexity and open/closed systems
  • Kubler-Ross Change Curve
  • Transition models
  • Management fashions and fads
  • Haighmoor and Hawthorn experiments
  • 4 + 2 formula

Feedback:

  • Breaking change down into small steps makes it much more manageable
  • Excellent discussions with other delegates ‘time to discuss and think'
  • The session on direction, resources, permission and boundaries was particularly useful
  • Working together on an issue was very helpful - bouncing of ideas, thoughts etc
  • "Keep it simple!" - a key message
