14 PDUs (14 Leadership)

Leading Successful Change Simulation Powered Learning is a 2 day class focused on developing the knowledge, tools and skills required to successfully implement and lead change. Students learn that a successful change is dependent on understanding the transition process and applying proven techniques in leading and traversing each stage of the transition. This class includes a simulation where students lead a simulated real-life team through a major organizational change. Through the simulation they practice and develop change leadership skills, learning from their mistakes and their successes. Students learn and take away tools for planning and tracking successful transitions. Good leadership is common sense, but not common practice. We know what a “good” leader should do, so why are we so bad at it? It has everything to do with practice. We practice the technical things, and ignore the human issues. We get better technically, but continue to struggle with leadership challenges. Only through self awareness, feedback and practice will we improve our leadership skills.

In this two day workshop participants will be challenged through lecture and computer simulation to develop their change leadership skills.

In teams of four, participants actually lead a simulated real life team through a major unwanted organizational change. Participants learn the phases people go through as a result of a major change and what they can do as a leader to help heir people with the transition. Through the simulation they practice and develop their change leadership skills – learning from their mistakes and their successes.
