Frameworks for Change Management

Managing change is a critical skill in today’s world of rapid and continuous change. Businesses often recognise the challenge of getting people to change shortly after implementation has started. The new system, process or structure is expected to go in unopposed. When the welcome mat doesn’t appear the project team scrambles to do some patch up communication – often with poor results. This training course provides both the critical skills and a framework for the successful management of change.

Course objectives

This course will allow participants to:

• Understand the impact of change
• Prepare for and support impending changes
• Manage others through changes in the workplace
• Get buy-in; deal with resistance and avoid the ‘tyranny of positivity’
• Become a leader of change
• Confidently develop creative change solutions
• Ensure that change is sustainable

Welcome

Welcome to Forming, the new home of my business and technology consultancy providing facilitation and management of business innovation and improvement. I  designed this site with two primary goals in mind:

1. Presenting my thoughts and ideas on business improvement through human and technological innovation and
2. Providing prospective clients with an introduction to me, my experience and the services I can deliver.

This is where I write my latest thoughts on business improvement methods and opportunities so subscribe to my RSS feed to keep up to date with my latest articles and downloads. If you’re wondering about my business’ name take a look at the first article I added to the site: Why Forming?

If you are looking for website development or online business support why not try my sister site Kaimata Croft websites where you can find out how I go about building user managed websites that meet the needs of small businesses and community groups.

You may have been forwarded here by Bogle-Callaghan Associates – if so, please don’t panic!  You’re in the right place but Callaghan has decided to take up a proper job so I decided that it was a good time to re-brand and choose a name that resonated with what I am personally aiming to achieve through this business.

I am here to help and am happy to discuss your business requirements with no obligation. Pick up the phone and talk to me on 027 477 6881 or 03 442 3645 if you have any queries at all or if you prefer, use the contact form here.

Thanks for visiting my site & I hope to see you here again soon
