Who is it for

Managers who are facing the challenge of leading their teams through a change programme and anyone wanting to learn best practice in this area.

What is it about

If managed properly, successful change programmes result in increased morale and productivity once the department has settled. Ineffective management can result in disaster, and both emotional and commercial fallout. This course will take you through best practice in change management, and provide effective methods for overcoming barriers to change. It will show you how to successfully manage not only practical requirements, but also how to influence hearts and minds during times of organisational change.
