Become the authority for change within your organization. Develop the knowledge and skills to navigate the complexities of any organizational change with confidence. Take your change leadership capability to the next level with this three day immersive program.
As the leader of change, you play an important role in the success or failure of the change initiative in your organization.
This comprehensive change leadership program gives you the information and tools needed to navigate change successfully.
QNET’s Certificate in Change Management (CCM), “The Change Leader’s Certificate Course,” is a 21 hour immersive and interactive course that will take your change leadership capability to the next level.
The course is designed for leaders and managers who want the knowledge, skills, tools and techniques to support their employees and enable healthy and sustainable change in their organization.
In this course, you will discover what happens when leaders label normal human reactions to change as resistance, and how you can prevent resistance to change with a Readiness Mindset.
As a leader, you want to support your team or department as they move through change, but it can be challenging to know what to do. You may wonder “how do I guide my team when I am unsure what to do myself?”
During this course you will:
- Learn how to adopt and use the Readiness MindsetTM to facilitate organizational change without change fatigue and burnout.
- Learn how to create a healthy environment for change – one that encourages your team to tackle change with confidence and sets you up for success.
- Know what’s needed to build readiness, support your employees, and keep your change initiatives from languishing on the side of your desk.
You will discover:
- How to use change management to increase performance and growth
- How to lead change when you will be affected by the outcome
- How to create healthy organizational change
Course Components:
Raising Readiness to Prevent Resistance
Here’s where we’ll introduce you to the power of the Readiness Mindset and system to prevent change fatigue and burnout. You’ll explore the different approaches to organizational change and work with the one approach leading to the highest adoption rate. We’ll discuss three reasons that organizational change fails and how to get your team ready for current or upcoming changes. You’ll also find out how to prevent resistance to change.
Working with the Methodology
During this part of the course, you will apply and work with the DEAM© change management methodology. You’ll gain more insight into how the human brain responds to change to know what actions will help and what steps not to take. We’ll show you how to help people feel capable and supported, so they will move toward change rather than run from it. We’ll spend time discovering what a Change Story is and how to write your Change Story. You’ll also get some great tools on the importance of communication.
Post Course Integration
Everything is easier in the classroom. Once you leave the classroom putting your learning into practice can cause new questions to come up. That’s why we reconnect with you after the course wraps up to explore your challenges, successes and new insights to enable change. This will allow you to ask questions related to your learning and connect it to your every day work.
