Managing Change Lunchtime Learning Workshops
Part 1: Understanding Change
Monday 13 March, 12.15 - 1.15 pm
Roscoe Building
Change is the only constant at work and without it we can’t move forward. However we may resist change, to a greater or lesser extent, and having a structured approach to the process can go a long way towards ensuring the successful implementation of transformational change.
The Lunchtime Learning sessions are bite-sized, practical and informal workshops where line managers can bring along their lunch, if they wish, and learn about a range of HR and people related issues.
There will be three Lunchtime Learning sessions around the area of change. The first session will focus on understanding the different phases of change and how people react to change. Communicating change will be covered in the second session, and the third will focus on useful tools for managers to consider when undergoing change and transition, including a change toolkit.
We recommend that managers attend all three sessions to fully optimise the benefits. The first session will take place on 13 March with the following two taking place in April and May.

Please note, places are limited so we recommend you book early.
