"CHANGE is for NOW™" a core management workshop that guarantees your managers can handle change - any change!



Why it is vital to train your managers to successfully manage change?

In a 2008 survey of over 300 UK companies only 3% claimed they could manage change successfully! The majority of those interviewed had attended courses on change management and read up on the subject. So why were a staggering 97% unsuccessful? There are three main reasons:
  1. Bogged down in problem solving, changes were  desperation-driven: Reducing costs,  increasing efficiency or corporate remodelling;

  2. they focused on the change process not on people;

  3. they used external trainers and consultants to guide them.
The primary focus of successfully managing change is anticipating how people may think, behave and react in a given change situation and supporting them through the changes

If your managers do not understand people they cannot manage them effectively.

Understanding behaviour and knowing the people who work for you as human beings, not just as workplace resources, is the key - not only to managing change - but to effective management in all aspects of the business. Get this in place first and all other training will be more effective as it impacts everything as varied as implementing process control to leadership training. From team building to total quality management.

Our Change is for now™ workshop can help you to dispense with the traditional approach to change management and make your team 100% more effective in managing change. The brilliance of the Change is for now™ workshop lies in helping your team to drive your business forward and make it more successful, even in times of global economic gloom and despondency.

Find out about Change is for now™. This workshop is designed for those proposing, implementing and managing all aspects of change, including overcoming resistance to change. Workbook driven, psychologically based and culminating in a complete change-handling action plan. Best of all, your own team runs the workshop - no external trainers - no befuddled gurus - no sermons on the mount - just straight into action using the best change planning tools backed with your business knowledge and acumen.

Change as a management philosophy

Developing a new management philosophy. Those who welcome change and build it into their business strategy, into their management thinking, will have a higher chance of surviving in the turbulent times ahead. Change is about looking ahead to new challenges and opportunities for growth and diversification. Organisations who continue to use the traditional top three incentives for change - reducing costs - increasing efficiency and corporate remodelling are still in reactive mode, fire fighting and bogged down in problem solving.
