Right Turns: Change in Action®
Organizational change is guaranteed. Success isn’t! In today’s world of mergers, acquisitions, competitive pressures and new technologies, an effective corporate strategy for change management designed to helping employees with organizational change makes all the difference.
Right Turns: Change in Action is a powerful classroom-based learning experience focused on change management that guides employees and managers to explore the realities of change and the actions and behaviors that lead to success.
Whether learners are dealing with organizational change or leading organizational change, this fast-paced discovery learning experience will build understanding, alignment and commitment for any corporate strategy.
Overview
For Employees — A Two-Hour Session
Small teams gather around an engaging illustration called a Discovery Map®. Guided by activity cards, they work together to explore and discuss the key concepts of change, including:
- External forces causing change
- The impact of change and its “path” to success
- The effects of emotions and behaviors as they help or hinder progress
Company-specific exercises bring the lessons home — employees explore organizational change in their own company or department, developing insights to take back to their jobs.
For Managers — A Four-Hour Session
After experiencing the Discovery Map, managers explore their role as change leaders, including:
- Their key responsibilities as change progresses
- The skills and attributes that are critical in dealing with change management
- How to deal with their own reactions to organizational change — and those of their employees and teams
Critical Thinking Guides, provided with the program, help managers apply their new insights on the job.
