OC October Learning Event ~ How to Effectively Communicate About Change

Pre-registration is now closed, but we welcome walkins!

Have you ever been through an organizational change in which you felt that the communication was exactly what was needed? Then you are one of the lucky ones!

Usually organizational changes are characterized by limited and ineffective communication that fails to inspire, prepare and engage employees. This significantly impairs the implementation of the change.

Join us as Denise Lamonte provides a foundational framework of best practices that will radically improve the effectiveness of your change communication through easy to implement approaches.

During this interactive program you will:

• Explore ways to lead an effective dialogue about an upcoming change
•  Create appealing explanations rather than complex messages
• Explore impactful change communication best practices

This program provides a just-in-time take-away that you can begin using the next day.

Yeah, that’s a lot for 60 minutes, so bring your A-game and come prepared to participate!
