During college in Israel, he led groups of adolescents on excursions through the desert, observing natural leadership behaviors in team settings.

Embracing Change in the Workplace and Elsewhere by Michael Nir

About the training

#Master the Change   #Leadership   #Resistance   #Overcome difficulties   #Be the Change   #Confidence and Motivation

Ever wonder why some changes stick and other change ’transformations’ fail? Did you notice that when others don’t adapt to changes that we lead or endorse, we blame them for being inflexible, dinosaur luddites? When we resist changes that are imposed upon us, we are convinced that the change leaders have it all wrong, and things are working just fine. Change can be a great thing and it can be scary; in this hands-on, exercise-driven workshop we recreate change scenarios; guided by the ADKAR and 4 phase model, Kurt Lewin, and concepts from Switch (Heath Chip and Dan) we experiment and discuss best practices to lead transformational change in the workplace and elsewhere. The workshop is highly interactive it includes: • Numerous team exercises • Team analysis • Pair reflections • Role play simulations
