Canisius College

Has your organization ever fallen short of achieving the promises advertised by a new, organization-wide change initiative, because it just didn't take hold?

Have you ever invested time and money in training, only to find that months or even weeks after the training, what had been learned was not being applied in the work place?

Are you currently planning a new change initiative and concerned about the possibility of failing?

Often times the failure is rooted in the conflict the change initiative has with the existing culture, and despite the best of intentions, the change initiative is usually the loser. This program introduces participants to a model for managing effective cultural change to ensure that you achieve your objectives when implementing change.

Objectives:

• Understand what cultural change is and when it is necessary.
• Understand how to effectively manage cultural change.

Topics covered in the training include:

• Definition of culture
• When is cultural change necessary
• Assessing your company's current approach to managing culture (In-class exercise)
• Cultural change model
