If you've led change before, you know resistance is inevitable. It's not a sign of failure - it's an opportunity. Resistance shows where concerns lie and gives us a chance to address them head-on. Don't avoid resistance, embrace it, and use it to strengthen your approach. How do you typically handle resistance during a change initiative?

I'm thinking about building a live, cohort-based course for leaders on how to accelerate the planning of projects and programs and ensure successful execution. You’ll learn how to quickly plan a project/program, leveraging your team's knowledge, identify dependencies, monitor execution, and ensure success. I’ve taught/consulted on this planning and execution approach for over 20 years working at Intel, Symantec, Railinc, and with various consulting clients. And I have taught this approach at PMI chapters. Now I’d love to teach you. Fill out this survey to get your insights on your needs and to get on the waitlist, becoming the one of the first to hear when enrollments open: https://lnkd.in/er_fUmTJ. Feel free to share this information with others you think might be interested and would benefit from it. #planning, #projectplanning, #projectexecution
