The amount of change we’re all had to navigate the last couple of years is fairly unprecedented: we’ve changed work environments and work structures; we’ve changed products and service offerings (and delivery); we’ve redesigned supply chains. In some sectors and industries, entire business models have changed almost overnight. While the pace of change may have stabilized a little, the next few years promises more of the same, with continued staffing shortages, the emergence of new technology (including AI), continuing shifts in demographics. There are models, tools, and best practices for navigating this change, and organizations that manage change proactively and systematically will perform better than those forced to change reactively.
The Performance Excellence Network – in partnership with the Wisconsin Center for Performance Excellence – is pleased to host an online webinar discussion on Thursday, August 10: “Navigating Constant Change.”
The discussion will feature three perspectives, each exploring a different perspective on managing change:
- Bonnie Therese, Senior Customer Success Manager, Microsoft (and president, MN Change Management Network) will explore change beyond just communications — she’ll introduce organizational change management, why organizations need a designated person/team to manage it, and will unpack the breadth of possible activities included in a change management plan
- Stacey Mueller, Executive Director, Experience Management, Froedtert Health will explore leadership competencies — perhaps the most critical component of effectively managing change — necessary for effective change at various levels of the organization
- Tami Reuter, Chief Business and Marketing Officer, MRCI will explore practical tips learned surrounding change to assist you and your organization in navigating your next transformation
Each speaker will share a brief presentation on how they have systematically managed change the last couple of years, followed by Q&A and discussion, moderated by Tonia Whitney, Change Management & Communications Consultant and Past President, MN Change Management Network. Come explore insights on how to better navigate change within your team and organization.
This session is Thursday, Aug 10 from 8:00-9:00 CT (optional speed networking and mingling 7:45-8:00), using Zoom MEETING. Grab your coffee and breakfast, and join us for a rich discussion. Free for PEN/WCPE members; $20 for non-members.
