Change Leadership:  Strategies, Practices and Outcomes

Leadership is about taking people to a place they probably would not have gone by themselves.  This requires change.  Most people resist change because they are uncertain of the goals and results and the amount of effort required on their part.  As leaders, our currency is trust and influence so we must focus on “what” and “how” we implement change using these tools.  If you want to become better at leading yourself and others through the stages of change from awareness, understanding, acceptance and the new effective behavioral norms, then please attend the Change Leadership Session with Don Hutson, Lashell Vaughn, and Sylvia Joure.

Don Hutson topic:  

“Practical Engagement Frameworks for Gaining Acceptance of Change"

Keeping our team members fully engaged is one of the toughest challenges we face as a leader.  Making it even more difficult are the numerous changes being introduced by the external environment and/or internal strategies/initiatives.  Usually these changes meet active or passive resistance and often lead to disengagement of team members who are becoming weary of all the changes.   Most people resist change because they are uncertain how the change will be successful.  As leaders, our currency is trust and influence.  To build trust and influence we must focus on “how” we change in addition to “what” we change. 

If you want to become even better at leading yourself and teams through change while increasing engagement at the same time, then please make plans to attend the “Practical Engagement Frameworks for Gaining Acceptance of Change” session facilitated by Don Hutson on November 15th, 2018

As a result of your attendance, you will . . .

  • Answer the 6 stakeholder questions that enable people to understand the change
  • Understand the four levels of engagement that lead to acceptance of the change

Your ticket into the event: Bring an initiative you are currently working on that will require something to change in one or more of the following - process, skills, technology, policy, procedure, org or team structure, etc.
