Description

Navigating and guiding continuous organizational change has now become a key organizational capability. It has become instrumental in enabling organizations to adapt to an evolving landscape, to be resilient in the midst of innovative technologies and to maintain an engaged workforce.

The outcome for this two-day in-person course is for leaders to come away with a new mindset and approach for guiding their organizations in an era of unprecedented and constant change.
