Training 3: Basics On Assessing Sponsors, Stakeholders, Targets & Dealing With Resistance

When should you follow this training? When you want to better understand that you need a different focus for all your impacted groups, and that resistance is a very natural and manageable state.   Key topics covered Linking psychological profiling, team dynamics, and communication to resistance-related topics. Understanding two easy-to-use change models relating to resistance.  Several models for mapping sponsor and stakeholder resistance. How do people look and adapt to change? Deeply understanding the grief cycle. Deeper insights into the link between neuroscience and resistance. The fun is in negotiating with difficult people.

Why Is This Training Program Different?

• Some of the challenges you are confronted with are not solvable using ‘normal approaches’, standard methodologies, and tools. In fact, ‘Business Transformation’, when looked at in its full maturity, is a very broad domain.
• The full program follows a logical pattern to help you keep your overview and to connect the dots.
• We provide you with pre-read materials and ask you to prepare your own case for the specific training you will be attending.
• We give you a detailed syllabus, but only show the models ‘real life’ that will help you to get your head (and hands) around the topics you are facing.
• You will also learn how your peers in other organizations are doing and what they face.

Simply put:

We look at your challenges in a down-to-earth, pragmatic way, considering multiple angles, and drawing on the experience of the participants and the trainer.

Most of all, we liberate what is inside you, but what you don’t yet understand or show, in order to deal with the topics at hand.
