Building personal resources for change
Navigating change at work is a core competence these days and this programme is designed to support people during periods of change and uncertainty. While much has been written about how to lead and shape change processes, there is relatively little support for individuals going through change in an organisation. =mc has created Change & Me to address exactly that issue.
This programme enables participants to explore and better understand their – and other people’s – responses to change, and to use tools and approaches to deal with change proactively. They are introduced to a variety of practical techniques on how to take make effective choices for themselves in change and how to support colleagues. We cover issues such as aspiration mapping, changing mindsets and skillsets, building personal resilience, and using emotional intelligence to enable an empathetic and compassionate approach to navigating relationships at work during change.
Many people choose to have this programme in-house either as a full day or a reduced half-day course, and so it may be a while before we run it as a public training course. We have options for one-to-one support or in house group support. If that sounds right for you, the best way to start this process is with a conversation (for free of course).

Yes, and also face to face. It's equally suitable for both options.

If you have 6 or more people to train it's worth getting in touch to discuss in-house options.
These include:
- your choice of structure – as well as choosing dates to suit you, you can also decide whether to have the content delivered in full days, half-day sessions or bitesize sessions over separate days.
- tailoring options – if you're looking to focus on particular elements of the programme, we can look into this.
- self-directed learning – this enables participants to set learning goals, acquire knowledge and skills, set their own actions and evaluate themselves using a customised web portal which we'll build for you.
In order to make sure your in-house training needs are met, the best way to start this process is with a conversation (for free of course).

Who is the programme for?
This highly reflective programme is for anyone who is approaching a change within their organisation or who are currently experiencing changes. It is also very useful for managers who are responsible for supporting others during change.
“Good structure, varied concepts and useful tools. The programme’s strong leadership focus was incredibly useful. I’d definitely recommend this course.”
Nick Greenwood, Head of Human Resources, IIED
“The Change and Me programme was excellent. The tone was perfect and it was nice to be able to talk to people and share in a way where you can have an outsider perspective to the challenges discussed. The training exceeded my expectations and the tips provided are helping me. Being able to workshop challenges in your life was particularly useful as it left me feeling lighter because I’d been able to see things in a different and more manageable perspective”
Emma, participant on Change and Me, University of Worcester
