What will you learn?
Effective change initiatives engage staff and encourage everyone to take an active role in the design and deployment of the transition, and to do this with a sense of serious purpose and urgency. The day will enable managers and leaders from across the University to reflect on and to decide on their collective and individual roles in enhancing the way the institution works with change.

The day is intended to help participants:
• develop an approach to change that is essentially creative, optimistic and collaborative, and that recognises change as the only constant;
• clarify the current situation within the University, the degree to which there exists a shared vision, and to share concerns and aspirations they may have;
• begin a process that will make explicit the values and behaviours, the culture, that will underpin the activities of the University;
• consider how best they can support their colleagues to engage and to create their own future, through a hundred small interventions.
Content The programme will address some key themes relating to change:
• Change as a constant – chaos and the complex adaptive organism
• The role of leadership – vision, direction, energy, facilitation, persistence, reward and feedback
• Change ‘management’ as myth – the power of influence: values, behaviours and culture
• Continuous improvement as a way of doing business
• Appreciative enquiry or problem solving?
