Introduction to Change Management and OD
Introduction to Change Management and OD
Change is one of the few constants in this universe and in the world of work. HR Practitioners need to handle the demands of the constantly changing workplace, as well as intitiate changes that will enable the organisation to survive and grow into the future.
Practitioners both have to react to, as well as proactively initiate, changes within the organisation rapidly and effectively. This also means being able to cope personally with the ambiguity of their environment and assisting others to cope too.
This workshop equips HR Practitioners with the basic skills that they need in order to manage change and initiate OD interventions.
