Who should attend?
Influencing Change focuses on issues that are common to anyone who must guide an initiative or new idea through the obstacle course of organizational resistance. As a result, the program is helpful to people from a wide range of professional, functional, and organizational affiliations. Aspiring product or process innovators acquire the knowledge and skills they need to champion new ideas successfully. Work groups that must implement changes become more adept at assessing organizational risk and overcoming resistance. Managers acquire tools to help coach innovative employees or project teams responsible for implementing initiatives.
