Manager as Change Champion
This breakthrough Manager As Change Champion course provides managers to positively influence and drive change. Importantly, managers learn how to become change champions, ensuring that change permeates through your organisation.
Champion for Change Training
It’s not unusual for managers to misunderstand their role in the change. A tick box ticked, simply doesn’t make the change happen. The LA fires in 2025 highlight the very poor change processes and the devastating consequences of this. The fire hydrants ran dry during the fire. How? A failure to properly plan and implement critical changes.
Organisational change is an ongoing dynamic for contemporary organisations as they look for improvement and efficiency. Managers and team leaders play a vital role in the change process as they straddle the gap between strategy and operations, and therefore they need to be clear about their role in leading and supporting change.
