Considering the ever-accelerating rate of change in today’s workplace, there may be no more important skill than the ability to adapt successfully to change. Sometimes, adapting to change comes easily. You enjoy the challenge and opportunity that the change presents. Other times you find yourself resisting change, focusing on what you might lose as a result of the change, rather than on what you might gain. Your ability to adapt to workplace change is usually closely observed by leaders and team members, so it is important to adapt productively and positively, no matter how you might feel personally about the change.
In addition, organizations have a constant need for individuals who can positively influence change. These team members carry the responsibility of inspiring others to respond productively to opportunities, challenges, or changes in priorities. In some cases, these individuals have formal leadership roles, and in other cases they are more informal leaders within the organization.
In this seminar you concentrate on the aspects of workplace change that are within your control. You commit to adapting your work patterns to meet the challenges of change. You examine ways of adapting your attitudes so that you are ready to meet the difficulties of a changing work environment. You commit to being flexible and productive when change happens, so that you make a positive impression on others in the organization. You will also examine your opportunities to influence change within your organization by influencing the behaviors and attitudes of others. You will identify principles for respectfully and sincerely leading others through periods of change. In addition, you will assess your own attitude and willingness to change your own behavior to positively influence other members of your team.
