Change can be difficult. It can be more challenging when charged with implementing a change without holding a formal position of power. This training was developed to support individual contributors who find themselves supporting colleagues and co-workers on critical work but hold no influence or power as perhaps a manager would. Concrete steps can be taken to make changes more palatable: build relationships, understand reasons for hesitation, and communicate a strong case. In this workshop, participants will identify strategies and techniques to be even more influential and effective in achieving collective goals.
