In a world without credible institutions, in a world where many of the old certainties have gone by the board, there are three aspects of life about which we seem to wish to be sure : the family, the economy and the company we work in.  They occupy the centre ground of all our dreams and disappointments.  We think that in these areas the dealings should be fair and rational.  That is why reorganizations, downsizings, re-engineerings, new technologies, new strategies, new rules and new leaders are now seen as the main events that can change our lives and affect our families.   That is why unexplained change is feared and why transitions are lived so passionately... 

Individual Transition in Organizations

1-Day Program

The Purpose

This training program has been designed to help individuals manage the transitions that are created by the changes they are facing in their organizations.   The change does not necessarily have to be negative.  Individuals are sometimes at a loss to understand why they react with a feeling of loss to positive changes such as promotion, a new job or the much-longed for retirement.  It is intended to help people understand the process they are going through, and to develop action plans that will enable them to enhance their ability to successfully grow through these times of rapid and significant change.
