About Programme

Why attend Managing the Human Side of Disruption?

With continuous digital innovation and the COVID-19 pandemic creating a heavier reliance on technology, organizations globally have had to rapidly digitalize their operations and processes to remain competitive. At the same time, employees have had to take on new roles, transform their capabilities, and manage the psychological effects these transitions can cause. To ensure a successful, digitally driven transformation, business leaders require the skills to lead their companies, people, and teams through change and the knowledge to help reduce the emotional impact.

The Managing the Human Side of Digital Disruption online short course provides you with the insight and tools to lead people and teams through digital change. Drawing on the Transition-Curve Framework, developed by Faculty Directors Hal Gregersen and Roger Lehman, you’ll explore the progression of your team’s roles, capabilities, and psychological responses to change, and gain methods for managing the unique requirements of each. You’ll also be introduced to the elements of successful change management, which will help you leverage the superpowers of purpose and inquiry and establish the essential conditions of psychological safety and trust in your business context. On completion of the program, you’ll be able to confidently and proactively lead transformations, now and in the future.
