Organisation’s are faced with diverse challenges, one of which is that of change. As human nature tends to prefer consistency or tried and tested methods, it may in fact cause challenges for employees to adopt change as well as those that seek to develop change, to do so in a proactive fashion.

This session will discuss the challenges that are faced when approaching change as well as considering behavioural attributes and personality characteristics that can have a bearing on their willingness to accept change.
