Who should attend

Mid-level to senior-mid managers across most industries who manage and lead change within teams, groups or across initiatives.

Two distinct types of participants:

  • IT, systems and engineering professionals responsible for large-scale operational or systems-based change—often working independently or with small teams and less focus on people leadership.
  • Healthcare, marketing, HR and other people-centred professionals managing change that impacts both operations and team culture—typically within larger teams where engaging and leading people through change is essential.

Entry requirements

There are no formal entry requirements; however, participants should have current or upcoming responsibilities related to leading change. A general understanding of managing change in the workplace is recommended.
