This programme is very client-specific as 'change' can mean something very unique to a particular company. Whether there is a merger and acquisition, a new management ethos or a possible retrenchment after a difficult period, several issues relating to change of some kind need to be confronted.

A company in this particular situation often finds an outside consultant's objectivity especially helpful in communicating the message of change, the initial step in driving through a corporate change initiative.

The three ways of dealing with change and why we must constantly change
Why change is an emotional human process
A map of the territory of change

By the end of the course participants will be able to:

Understand the change management process
