    As a leader, it is important to facilitate change in any organization. A good leader first understands themselves and then how to engage employees to get behind and assist in implementing change. Before implementation, changes must first be understood by all before employees will follow them. This course will help leaders to understand the change process and what tools may be utilized to assist that process.

    Many factors need to be understood about the change process, including the human element, straightforward leadership, change models, stages of change, and the organization's culture. Facilitating positive change and improving an organization through change is a specific skill that is necessary for leaders to develop.

    This course will focus on developing these skills and what it takes to manage change in any organization effectively. This course will also cover how to determine what organizational changes are needed. Within this context, we will analyze change management practices and theories and review failed changes that organizations have attempted to implement. We will also review the impact of change on employees and how to mitigate resistance.
