Change Management – Creating Change from Within

• Is it easy to make people change?
• People do understand the need to change, but they just don't take action. Why?
• How can company implement change if people are not convinced?

Change is painful, fearful, disruptive and costly. Given a choice, most people rather choose to remain status quo. The biggest problem faced by many organizations is to get their staff to embrace change and not to resist it. Change must come from within and start from individual.

The program is mainly based on book "Lessons from the Monkey King" by Arthur F. Carmazzi. It uses Directive Communication psychology to deal with human behaviours of people working in groups and the way people act and react to emotions. It applies psychology strategies to individuals to change from within, take actions and affect those around as well as those around affect the individuals.
