70% of all change initiatives fail, and 16% of a workforce will change their job or use their power to stop change.
The result is major disruption with no benefit. To fail and lose 16% of your workforce while failing is a pretty scary proposition.
For folks looking to move to Agile methods or driving a product that will do creative destruction to any organization, the odds are stacked against you.
Successful leaders understand the keys to guiding workplace change are to be clear-headed, responsive, alert, and dynamic. It is not a time to sit back and watch from the sidelines.
Managing change is not a top-down or trickle-down approach.
It is about active involvement and getting key stakeholders involved in not just planning but also executing the outcome.
Ultimately you have to learn how to handle change resistors and how to minimize the impact of change outside the change zone to reduce the collateral damage.
You will also learn:
- Necessary elements of change management
- Stages of change that people and organizations go through
- Reasons people resist change and strategies to overcome resistance
- To minimize negative change impacts by using the change curve model
Presenter: David Mantica (LinkedIn profile) has product managed the initiation, development and delivery of more than 300 instructor-led and live, online training courses, in software development life cycle, IT, telecommunications, finance, healthcare IT, and marketing industries.
