Course overview
‘Change is the law of life and those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future’ - John F. Kennedy
At its core, ‘change management’ is about how to proactively use specific tools and techniques to transition employees and teams, or an entire organisation, to a desired future state with the minimal of disruption and resistance.
Change is hard and humans are naturally resistant to it, so most organisations continue to struggle with effectively implementing it successfully and efficiently. It's crucial to have the skills and knowledge to manage change and minimise the resistance to organisational change, by using structured approaches based on years of research.
Change management empowers in-house lawyers to proactively address legal challenges, mitigate risks, and contribute strategically to the organisation's success in a dynamic business environment. This highly focussed course will provide the latest best practice tools, knowledge and techniques that lawyers should have alongside their legal knowledge and skills.
This course is also relevant to other business leaders and executives who need to manage change necessary for 21st century innovation.
This training course is part of our collection of Strategy & Negotiation Training Courses which teach negotiation, communication, leadership, financial and management knowledge and skills.
