The secret to effective and supported change is... there is no secret! It's a plan. It's a set of steps to unfold what used to be the way, and fold into what will be next. Believe it or not, regardless of the kind of change your team is undertaking, the path to get there is similar. In this session, we will walk through the playbook together, how it started, anecdotes about where it was tested with bumps and applied with success, and how you can use it as a framework the next time your team undergoes a change. From re-orgs to system change, fast growth to leadership change, this playbook will lay out strategies for messaging, communication, engagement, enablement, and support. It will outline different reactions and how to deal with them, different scenarios and how to approach them, and ways to keep leadership involved. Join Kate Nimety, President of Management Consulting at Zuri Group, for a workshop that will provide you with a toolkit for the next change that's around your corner!
