Senior Management Leadership Program: Managing Organizational Change and Leading Transformation Clariden Global Pte Ltd
Price: TBA
  • Duration: 2 Days

Course details

Leading an organizational change can be difficult, even for a senior management executive with considerable influence. The change may be complex and require dozens or even hundreds of managers and supervisors to be committed and aligned in implementing the shared vision; resistance to change will be considerable; and the change have to be accomplished while the company continues to serve its customer base.

A merger or acquisition, a new business model, an ERP implementation, or a host of other catalysts may precipitate the change. Most seasoned executives are skilled at drawing up a strategic plan, and charting a course of action. However, to design and execute a strategic roadmap that successfully engages the people of the enterprise to lead the changes remains elusive. Most change initiatives are met with enormous resistance, resulting in failure to achieve the desired outcomes. It is therefore critical that the skills and planning tools for engaging people throughout the organization to lead the changes, become known and practiced.

In this two-day senior management leadership program, you will learn how to successfully manage changes in your organization and eventually lead the change initiative to a transformational one. You will discover how to create a compelling vision and climate for successful organizational change, develop a robust change management plan and powerfully communicate the need for change and mobilize people to be committed and aligned in executing a shared vision. Participants will also learn from Harvard Business School case studies on how successful companies such as Apple have led successful change management plans and transformation changes in their organizations. Finally, you will discover how to sustain these changes and build improvements to create transformational changes. Through hands-on experience and in-depth analysis drawn from real-life examples, you and your peers will leave with new perspectives and tangible action plans for leading change in your organizations.

This program will be led by Felicity McRobb – a Founding Member of Insigniam’s Asia practice. Felicity has previously led and facilitated the following programs: ‘Executive Director’s Leadership Program,’ ‘Leading a High Performance Organization,’ and ‘Coaching for Extraordinary Results,’ in both Singapore and Sydney, Australia. Her programs have consistently become one of the most highly-rated executive programs at Clariden.
