Leading Organizational Change

Program Experience

The success of any organization is reliant upon how leaders respond to the inevitability of change. Change management requires many skillsets: anticipating an organizational need, creating a vision, enabling, managing and sustaining the change.

Leaders must ensure that their team is involved in the process and feel valued as decisions are made and implemented. While change can be exciting and potential opportunities are revealed, it can also be worrisome and uncertain for teams. It's important for leaders to communicate their vision clearly and consistently, ensuring everyone is aware of how the changes will benefit them. These leadership skills are unearthed in this course. Discover just how to enhance your personal leadership style in this changing environment.
