KEYNOTE ADDRESS:
"When the Elephants Dance:
Implementing Successful Change"

Presenter: Ted Schick

Wednesday, October 24 | 8:45 a.m.

An old Navy saying is, “When the elephants dance, the grass must pay.” Too often, change is something that people on the front lines must bear. What can we do as leaders to change this mindset? This is a frequently requested topic since so many organizations experience organizational change. We look at why people too often resist change and the 11 steps to effective change management to facilitate a smooth transition no matter the size of the organizational change.
