Event description:

This training in its current form has not involved people with lived experience in its development and delivery.

Change agility refers to organisations and individual’s ability to anticipate and adapt to change. To strengthen our agility during times of change we need to stay positive; stay connected; stay focused and stay organised.

Agile organisations reimagine both whom they create value for, and how they do so. They are intensely client-focused, and seek to meet diverse needs across the entire client life cycle. Further, they are committed to creating value with and for a wide range of stakeholders (for example, employees, investors, partners, and communities).

Learning Outcomes:

• Define the term “Change Agility”

• What factors contributes to an agile organisation?

• Identify the characteristics of an agile individuals/teams

• Understand William Bridges – Model of Transition during change

• Apply proactive strategies for supporting yourself and others through each transition stage

• Create an effective change communication plan
