Change is ever present and ever accelerating. It places demands on organizations and subunits within organizations that require significant departures from people’s current routines and behaviors. The success of a change initiative depends upon the support of those affected. Not all those affected may see the change as something positive. Garnering their support is a challenge. How do you bring along those that shy from change and much prefer the status quo? How do you support the change journey in your organization or nonprofit? In this webinar we are going to take a practical approach with some tools that will help you bring focus to the change initiative and support the change journey.
