Organizations everywhere have been undergoing tremendous changes in the last two years.

A major challenge they are running into is how difficult change is to adapt to both emotionally and mentally.

Give your people the tools and attitudes to be “change ready” – a mental/emotional state in which they seek solutions, instead of blaming others.

They look for opportunities in the changes, and choose optimism. They vent their emotions in a helpful way and accept change more quickly.

Learning objectives:

  • Increased resilience to bounce back after the unexpected
  • Adapt more quickly to new environments
  • Sees opportunities in change instead of fighting, fleeing or freezing
  • Optimism rather than the blame game
  • Better health than when resisting change
