What's In It for Me

Today we expect leaders at all levels to deliver results under conditions of increasing change and uncertainty. However, many feel unprepared and ill-equipped to lead change.

In this program, you first learn the components of Dr. Kotters 8 Steps for Successful Change and four Critical Leadership Principles that must be in place to ensure successful change. Second, you explore and practise how to get and keep people on board and supporting change: you learn the definition of true urgency and how to build and maintain it in your own context.

Core Content Areas

How to Build a Foundation for Successful Change 

You will learn about the rates and causes of failure for change in organizations and explore the essential elements of successful change: the research-based 8 Steps for Successful Change and the four Critical Leadership Principles. Leveraging the results of your own Change Appraisal, you will study implementation practices and build a customized tactics guide and action plan for use in executing change in your organization.

How to Ignite Urgency for Change

You will explore how to get and keep people bought in to and actively supporting a change by learning what true urgency looks like and what leaders of change need to do to build, communicate and maintain it. You will learn to adapt your own change style to people’s different communication needs as a way to build buy-in across a range of personalities. Applying the principles for building urgency, you will work with different types to establish momentum for an idea or a current change initiative. Focus areas include how to gather support, how to identify who must be urgent, and how to develop messages that both appeal to all styles and rise above the din of competing messages.
