Leading Organisational Change develops the leadership capability required to guide organisations and teams through significant change. The programme examines the strategic, human and operational dimensions of transformation and the leadership behaviours required to create direction, commitment and momentum.
Participants explore how leaders establish a compelling case for change, build coalitions, address resistance, communicate direction and sustain engagement during periods of uncertainty. The programme also considers organisational culture, stakeholder alignment and the institutionalisation of new ways of working.
The emphasis is on leading change as an organisational process rather than treating it solely as a project or communication exercise.
