Understanding & Managing Change
Change is constant, yet some change is harder to manage than others. This workshop will explore change to better understand it. This workshop will look into aspects of perception and control and how these processes play a key role in managing the change before us. It will be useful for those in roles who want to develop their skills in helping clients to better navigate change, such as social workers, support people and health professionals.
Overview and learning intentions:
- Explore perceptions around change; the good, the bad, the indifferent
- Gain an understanding of Appreciative Inquiry and Solution-Focused approaches to better support change
- Understand what it means to help others focus on what they can control while minimising the focus and attention on issues they cannot control
- Know how to develop self-efficacy in others
- Consider the role of emotions in managing change
