Online Webinar – Recorded – October 4, 2018
Activity Type: Education – Online or Digital Media 1 PDU – Free
Provider:  Human Capital Institute

The modern workplace is replete with constant and never-ending change, yet research shows that at least 70 percent of change initiatives fail.

How can we break this “change failure cycle?”

Research also reveals that 85 percent of organizations agree that there is an urgent need to accelerate the development of their leaders, but less than half of respondents say their companies have a formal process for developing high-potential employees.

Correlation?  Connection?

When investigating the percentage of organizations that train their people to lead change (not just manage change, and not just cope with change), the numbers are shockingly low.

The relationship between agile cultures and change-capable leaders is clear and compelling, and there’s a proven path toward achieving this mission-critical goal.

This dynamic webinar will cover real-world case studies of organizations that faced daunting change challenges, and exploited these as opportunities to radically upskill their leaders and transform their culture.

You will walk away with actionable tactics to:

  • Contribute bottom-line value to your organization by understanding how to assess and enhance your approach to develop change leadership capacity.
  • Capitalize on real-time changes happening in your organization proactively as “pop-up learning labs” to accelerate application from the classroom to the field, and where achieving ROI for your training initiatives and making a meaningful difference for the business.
  • Coach executives and managers of high potential talent to adopt a common language and process that engages change up, down and across the organization.
  • Move beyond supporting the business strategy to driving the business strategy and molding an agile, change-capable culture and agile, change-capable leaders.

Presenter: Barbara A. Trautlein, Ph.D. (LinkedIn profile) is principal and founder of Change Catalysts, LLC, a change management and leadership development consultancy. She is the originator of the CQ® (Change Intelligence®) System and author of Change Intelligence: Use the Power of CQ to Lead Change That Sticks.
