Change Management
Change is inevitable.
People can perceive change as either good or bad.
Implementing change can be a pleasure or a pain.
So this one-day programme covers how we can approach “change” to make it as smooth and beneficial as possible.
Change management course outline:
Change management part one: Ideas
Continuous improvement “Always happy, never satisfied”.
Evolutionary change
Change made by means of many small “baby steps”.
Revolutionary change

The role of creative thinking in change.
The role of leader-managers during change.
- Leaders must provide clarity of purpose.
- Leaders must provide workable plans.
- Leaders must provide emotional support.
Four kinds of change
- Planned Good (what we want to achieve).
- Unplanned Good (what sometimes happens to us).
- Planned Bad (what we do by not thinking).
- Unplanned Bad (what we think happen to us).
It is sometimes the case that our “planned good change" feels like "unplanned bad change to the others. Â
The leadership question is: How can you stop that from happening?
