Customer-focused, rapidly changing organizations need to get the best from their employees. To stay ahead of the competition, they must address the demands of the market and the environment quickly, and effectively implement new strategy initiatives in the face of change.
Change, however, often results in employees who become frustrated or frozen, losing sight of what they do on a day-to-day basis. In response, the organization quickly becomes reactive rather than proactive, and loses the speed and adaptability that won customers in the first place.
Leaders can empower themselves and their people to take personal accountability for change and refocus on productivity and responsiveness. They can gain commitment and engage others in advancing the organization through effective strategy implementation.

LEADING IN CHALLENGING TIMES

Leading in Challenging Times™ is a powerful organizational development program that will help your leaders understand their role in implementing business strategy, taking charge of the change process, and refocusing their people. To capture the discretionary energy of your workforce, your organization must understand how motivation and focus is lost, and what leaders, managers, and individual employees can do to regain it.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Organizations are continually being challenged to develop new market strategies, improve response time, and stave off nontraditional competitors. Effective strategy calls for change, and change requires the best from employees, managers, and executives.

PROGRAM DETAILS

Leading in Challenging Times (LCT) is a flexible, two-day, instructor-led program designed for every employee who functions as a leader or influences others. It is especially beneficial for organizations anticipating change from new initiatives, enterprises that have gone through a merger or acquisition, flat or lean corporations with groups that are horizontally interdependent, or organizations within volatile markets. The program provides practical and actionable tools that help your workforce operate at its best and effectively navigate through change. The learning experience can be enhanced by combining LCT with Working in Challenging Times, a related one-day program that focuses specifically on individuals and their reactions to change.

MEASUREMENT AND MANAGEMENT

Leading in Challenging Times helps develop a more proactive and powerful model of leadership in your organization, producing results in times of change.
