Why book this course?

Agility allows your business to stay flexible, but it can also take a toll on employees. Even the smallest change can meet with resistance, while the prospect of a large restructure can leave some businesses paralysed. Navigating these scenarios requires careful planning, rigorous preparation, and a deft touch in management and negotiations.

By taking our Change Management course, you’ll learn how change is driven from a range of perspectives, and how to instigate change without causing friction. As well as studying valuable models and tools, you’ll learn how to develop a transition plan, recognise resistance within your organisation, and manage a successful negotiation.
