Change Agent Coaching

Managing change successfully through upskilling key staff

Organisational change is stressful for all employees, and maintaining productivity and morale can be difficult. In every organisation, there is a handful of individuals that drives change initiatives. These “change agents” need special skills to enable them to manage the challenges associated with events like mergers and acquisitions, downsizing or restructuring and also take advantage of potential opportunities.

Effective change management relies on strong leadership. Lee Hecht Harrison’s Change Agent Coaching provides the tools needed to achieve successful outcomes. The program includes:

• developing leadership skills, specifically those required in times of change
• training in identifying the different phases of the cycle of change: handling loss, understanding change, making decisions and moving forward
• assisting employees to understand changes in their personal lives in the context of larger global forces
• outlining the choices available to employees in times of change: to resist, avoid or embrace change
• encouraging employees to make constructive, proactive personal decisions in complex situations
• providing assistance with developing an action plan to help each individual navigate organisational change effectively
