Implementation of Change : The highest ambition a consultant can have is to "make something happen" in the client environment. Implementation of change is therefore what distinguishes the men from the boys in consulting. So, while this workshop covers the latest concepts and thinking in the area of change management, it focuses on the factors that make the difference between having a good idea and making it happen. It will help you become known as the person with the insights, who can also deliver. For this workshop, we draw on the combined skills of all of our international faculty members. (The value of this course is enhanced if you book an in-house version for your own business. We can then include your own case studies. Read more about in-house courses here.
