Southwest FL ASTD Monthly Meeting

May 18, 2011

Facilitating Organizational Change

Leading, managing, and facilitating change within organizations requires the understanding of systems. How systems affect processes and where a systematic solution is not only useful but central to the facilitation of organizational change.

What motivates the employees will vary, but your understanding of motivating factors is perhaps the most critical element to consider when implementing organizational change to minimize resistance, turnover, and failure to institutionalize the change. Effective communication is tied directly to successful organizational change.

On our ongoing journey to offer sessions based on the ASTD’s Areas of Expertise, please join Carol Marlow for an enlightening session discussing the key ingredients for facilitating organizational change! 

Attendees will learn how various systems and theories can help facilitate change and how a learning culture can support a change process.
