This course delves into the widely disliked concept of change and the practical reasons why embracing change leads to new growth opportunities. In addition to understanding some of the reasons people are generally reluctant to change or believe change is rarely beneficial, leaders are asked to evaluate their own approach to change and are provided with ideas to ease employee concerns related to change. As a leader of self and others, no matter the situation, you have to embrace change, or that goal you’re trying to attain may never get achieved. That team you’re leading may never improve its results. Much hinges on how you embrace change. The phrase is easy to say—embrace change—but much harder to employ.
