Change is an ever-present part of today’s work environment but the research suggests we are still not very good at managing it
effectively. This two-day workshop will equip participants with the knowledge and tools to understand and implement change; be that personal or organisational change. The programme will use neuroscience and psychology to explain how people typically act and react in times of change and
what we can do to make change a more positive and successful experience for both ourselves and others.
