It is no secret that organizations that demonstrate flexibility and a willingness to embrace change can better sustain competitive advantage in both the short and long term. Today’s leaders must demonstrate the requisite abilities necessary to identify and lead successful change initiatives. An adaptable leader will enable their organizations to not only survive but thrive.
In today’s ever-changing business environment, the rationale for embracing change is obvious: Without doing things differently, companies will most likely fail. Many change efforts are driven by the need to survive as an organization, the desire to be better positioned in the eyes of stakeholders, or the opportunity to take advantage of new tools or processes. However, the brutal reality is about 70% of all change initiatives fail. So what are the factors that enable successful change initiatives versus unsuccessful ones? How can you, as a leader, drive lasting, successful change within your organization?
In this self-paced, 3-hour digital workshop you’ll learn to apply the essential skills and techniques necessary to become one of the successful 30% in leading change initiatives within your organization.
