Change Management .

Event:Change Management.

Venue: Indepth Research Services. Nairobi, Kenya.

Event Date: 07th-11th AUGUST 2017.

INTRODUCTION

While many people find it difficult to deal with change in the workplace, the concept of continuous improvement should be embraced and used for the growth of any organization.  And continuous improvement almost always requires some form of change to systems, processes, etc. An organization that plans and prepares for change is better able to overcome these challenges and implement improvements as required.

Internal changes should be implemented after the creation of the new strategy or system; however most organizations and/or employees are not prepared for internal changes to policies or external strategies. Hence the requirement for change management training is commonplace in most industries.

The Change Management Training Course provides participants with training and development in each step of the change process including the planning and preparation stages and the communication and implementation stages. Being prepared for the changes allows your organization to grow steadily in spite of the potential pushback by staff.  If everyone is included in the change process, the staff will experience much less frustration, stress, attrition, etc.

DURATION

 5 days.
