Change management has been a hot topic at work as we have many new initiatives going to drive sales. This course was a useful reminder of how to influence change positively and bring the organisation along. My brain is buzzing with ways to engage and communicate with people differently, to create the desire and inspire people to be part of the journey of change to achieve our goals.

This is important because we are being confronted by changes all the time—all the more so because of artificial intelligence which has the potential to alter everything we know. This will affect us all and that is why I highly emphasize taking this course- so you know what to expect when life throws a curveball at you.

I really enjoyed this course. The content was set out well into bite sized chunks which made it easy to progress through as time permitted. This allowed me to digest and think about the topics before reverting back to the course. The content was interesting and I liked the mix of videos, articles and case studies. Concepts were clearly set out and explained. I would highly recommend this course. I’m pleased I did it – it certainly has assisted me in understanding how and why I have reacted to changes in the past and I know it will help me with future changes I have to deal with.
