COURSE DESCRIPTION:
 
They say that the only thing constant in the world is change. The same goes for any manager or leader. No leader can be at their best without knowing how to navigate change. Changes happen in the workplace often that it becomes challenging for some employees to cope at times. People are creatures of habit and change isn’t often welcomed with open arms. A leader’s primary responsibility is to act as the catalyst for change. Helping people go through change must begin from the leader. Although change is mostly sudden, there are some predictable aspects to change.
 
In this module, we will look at these predictable aspects and learn how we can go through the changes starting from its initial communication to execution to its final phases. We will also study how people react to change and what we can do to manage these reactions. How do we make the most out of people and how can we ensure that they understand the change? We will attempt to cover this in the module.
