Lead Change by Changing the Way You Lead
In today's ever-changing business landscape, adaptability matters more than ever. Leaders must embrace change and take risks, but the prospect of change can be daunting. In most organizations, change is over-managed and under-led, leading to a crippling disconnect between decision-makers and employees in the face of uncertainty. However, if managed correctly, change can be a prerequisite for success.
Leading change is essential for business development - and change is a constant state. If we want to create an environment where change is the organizational constant, leaders must change the way they lead. With Relationship Intelligence (RQ), leaders have the tools needed to prepare, equip, and support teams in embracing change so they can achieve a critical organizational outcome.
During this session, we'll discuss:
- How to link individual motives to change initiatives
- Overcoming people's resistance to change
- How to adjust communication styles everyone feels seen and heard during your change efforts.
