Resistance to change happens; learn how you can manage it more effectively.

Agenda

During this training, you will be introduced to three common scenarios in which you will practice identifying the root cause of the resistance and workshop how to address these challenges. You will also hear case studies of how our experts have successfully managed resistance to change in both academic and administrative departments. These case studies will help you better apply what you learn to your individual context.

Scenarios:

• A long-time faculty member is upset when she learns that two of her courses are scheduled to be dropped from the curriculum due to changes in new competencies.
• A faculty/advisory team has recently been asked to take on recruiting for their program
• A beloved staff support professional has been asked to move to another department, causing concern among the faculty who consider him one of their own.
