This session explores how leaders can effectively navigate and respond to staff resistance during times of change. Participants will examine the underlying causes of resistance and learn strategies to address concerns with empathy, clarity, and purpose. Through practical examples, the session highlights how to build trust, foster open dialogue, and create conditions for greater buy-in. Attendees will leave with tools to transform resistance into engagement and move initiatives forward with greater confidence and cohesion.
