We did it! The deliverable (new system, process, product) is done. But no one is using it, and it is too difficult to support!

At the end of this webinar, you will be able to:

• Realize the nature of change and describe how resistance manifests in people.
• Compare prevalent change models and categorize their similarities.
• Envision the future state and assess stakeholders.
• Plan for change communication, training, and risks.
• Evaluate change effectiveness.

The business demand for coaching is growing exponentially every year. While hiring external coaches is one way to benefit from the ROI that coaching delivers, another more sustainable option is to create a coaching mindset within your organization.

Gone are the days when managers had all the right answers and gave directives on what to do and how to do it. With constant, disruptive change being the norm, a new set of capabilities is required for managerial – and organizational – success.

Equipping managers with the skills to guide and support employees, asking incisive questions that lead them to discover their own answers, is a fundamental shift that many successful organizations are making.

• How a coaching mindset unlocks people’s potential
• What tools and support are needed to build coaching capabilities
• How to choose a coaching model that fits your organizational culture

In the face of increasing cybersecurity threats — that pose significant risks for firms — boards of directors have a unique role to play in helping their organizations manage these threats.

Boards do not have day-to-day management responsibility, but they do have oversight and fiduciary responsibility.

To fulfill these responsibilities, directors must be knowledgeable leaders who prioritize cybersecurity and personally demonstrate commitment.

While many directors recognize this, they still seek answers on how best to navigate their company’s growing cybersecurity needs.

Keri Pearlson, (LinkedIn profile) executive director of the Cybersecurity at MIT Sloan Research Consortium, will lead a live HBR webinar exploring key cybersecurity questions that boards need to address.

Keri will discuss:

• Why cybersecurity is about much more than just protecting data
• Prevailing approaches to protect companies from cyber threats
• What role the board should play when handling cyber risk
• Developing a comprehensive strategy in the event of an incident

Cybersecurity is now a board-level issue and directors play a key role in helping their organizations manage cybersecurity threats.

Asking smart questions at the next board meeting might just prevent a breach from becoming a total disaster.

One thing we can be sure of is change. It’s inevitable, and a natural part of our everyday personal and professional lives. Even though it’s a known fact that change will occur, there is still un-certainty around the long-term effects of change in an organization.

Dealing with change and uncertainty is a daunting responsibility for every leader.

Change efforts often fail because the organization and their leaders lack the framework and skills to guide their people through it effectively. Failed or stalled change initiatives waste time and money, reduce productivity and engagement, and increase employee turnover.

In this webinar you will learn tools for how to create an effective change management plan to maximize time, effort, and money, and set the leaders in the organization up for success.

In this webinar, Lisa will explore:

• Recognizing change starts with you
• Establishing a mindset and plan for change
• Measuring progress
