Develop a Plan to Manage Change

      Description     Managing change is the process of planning, implementing and sustaining change in organizations. Individuals all have their own unique "depiction" of what change represents, and from this, they formulate their attitude and reactions to the change.

Change offers an organization new realities that are only successful if employees accept and try to meaningfully interpret it. Like the cartoon above, imagine that as a manager you are announcing an organizational change to your team.

Then decide the best strategies to address those team members concerns to help them get on board and support the change. Develop a plan explaining what approaches, methodologies or tools you might use to address resistant team members.
