Ensure decisions taken under change readiness and risk would withstand external scrutiny.
Measuring Organisational Change Readiness and Assessing Risk
A concise, decision-focused programme covering change readiness and risk end to end.
Course Overview
A process for change readiness and risk that managers quietly work around has already failed. The organisation's reputation as an employer is built or lost through readiness and risk. It is pitched for practitioners with responsibility for the people management and development capability, not for observers of it. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about change readiness and risk under scrutiny. Ambition around the wider people management and development agenda outruns capacity unless the sequencing is deliberate. Content is organised around the decisions practitioners actually face in readiness and risk, not around theory headings. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of change readiness and risk rather than to abstract argument. Mature organisations treat readiness and risk as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. Participants finish with a short, specific brief on the people management and development discipline ready to put in front of a decision maker.
