ABOUT THE WEBCAST
How can we better understand the effects of change on our organizations

provide several models which can serve as lenses through which to view
change. Tools such as the models and techniques for helping people
through change will be provided.

After this webcast, participants will:
* Be able to use two frameworks for explaining the dynamics of
change

* Understand and be able to develop strategies for working with
"resistance" to change
