NOTE: Change in Topic and Presenter

Have you noticed that sometimes, even when employees feel positive about a change and want it, it still can be a cause of fear and anxiety? This can happen when people feel like the change is requiring them to go from relative mastery to a temporary novice level.

Genesis Hansen, Director of Library & Cultural Services for the City of Mission Viejo, has faced this situation during multiple changes in recent years. She has developed an approach that successfully addresses this issue and helps employees move through their fear and anxiety.

This program will help you improve your ability to use:

  • Change management strategies for expert employees
  • The J curve to plan for performance amidst change

Our program includes a broad overview and discussion of one change model, a presentation and discussion of the Mission Viejo Library case study, and an opportunity to interact with others who are learning about and implementing organizational change.

Yeah, that’s a lot for 90 minutes, so bring your A-game and come prepared to participate!
