How to become a Change Master : Internal Consulting Strategies & Skills

Change is the only constant.....

"As the demands of the marketplace require organisations to change, there is  increasing pressure on managers and leaders to master and drive the process of change rather than rely on external consultants."

This Workshop focuses upon developing participants' skills to successfully drive and implement change. Organisations can then develop their own internal change agents to drive 'change' in whatever format, and, therefore, require significantly less external support.

During this highly interactive Workshop, Philip will take participants through 'best practice' in internal consulting, case studies, self-assessment questionnaires and how change can be measured and mastered.
