Program Professional Framework
ILM Recognized Leading and Managing Change
Program Overview
Restructuring, digital transformation, mergers and new regulations mean that most managers in the Gulf now lead some form of change every year, yet many initiatives stall because the people side is neglected. This program combines the leadership and management sides of change, using models such as Lewin, Kotter's eight steps, Prosci ADKAR and Bridges' transition model. Participants learn to build the case for change, assess readiness and impact, engage stakeholders, plan communication, address resistance, and measure adoption so that changes are sustained rather than reversed.
Learning Outcomes
- ✓Compare Lewin, Kotter, ADKAR and Bridges models and select an approach suited to a specific change.
- ✓Build a compelling case for change that links drivers, vision and benefits.
- ✓Conduct a change impact and readiness assessment for affected groups.
- ✓Develop a stakeholder engagement and communication plan for the change.
- ✓Diagnose sources of resistance and apply targeted interventions.
