Is your organization falling behind the competition? Is it too slow to plan, execute and innovate? Or too fragmented to collaborate? Are your teams disengaged from their roles, colleagues, managers and customers? Are they consumed by constant activity and putting out fires? Or are they complacent?

At some point, every organization faces the need to transform, either to increase profits or to become more effective and efficient. But without a structured process for leading that change, the results can turn out to be unsatisfactory or worse, actually detrimental to your organization. To help companies in their change efforts, Dr. John Kotter introduced the 8‑Step Process for Leading Change in his seminal work Leading Change in 1996. However, the last 20 years has seen the world change at a rate we’ve never seen before—while our ability to keep up with said change has not. So what can be done to keep up in an atmosphere of increasingly rapid and drastic change?

In this 60-minute webinar, guest speaker and strategy and leadership expert David Carder will demonstrate how to lead change in today’s quickly-evolving environment with the enhanced 8‑step Process for Leading Change:

1. Create a sense of urgency
2. Build a guiding coalition
3. Form a strategic vision and initiatives
4. Enlist a volunteer army
5. Enable action by removing barriers
6. Generate short-term wins
7. Sustain acceleration
8. Institute change

Participants will leave this webinar with:

• A proven method for transforming organizations quickly, continuously and with powerful results
• An understanding of how to start the change process
• The mindset to lead change within their own organizations
