Managing People Through Change

We all know change is inevitable.  As an effective leader, one of your roles is to help employees manage all these changes.  In this class, understand the different stages of change and the emotions employees will experience throughout the change process.   Participants will practice how to engage staff in a productive, constructive dialogue, use coaching techniques to transition people into their new roles and responsibilities, and help employees deal with ambiguity.  This class will help the people recognize the symptoms when employees are saboteurs or “actively disengaged.”  They will also gain the language and dialogue skills to use with employees who are struggling and need to leave the organization.
