Session 1:  Be a Change Champion!

Session 2:  Improving Employee Productivity Through Health, Humor and Happiness.
HR is often charged with leading change management efforts. First, we must understand our individual responses to change, then how to lead others through that change.  HR’s role in change management will be explored, including assessing organizational systems that may help or hinder acceptance of the change, how to involve and retain high value/ high potential employees, measuring change readiness and the impact of change, and gathering feedback. Further focus on steps for developing and executing a change management plan as an HR practitioner will be offered. 


In this interactive workshop, we will:
  • Learn what it takes to be a change champion.
  • Review individual and organizational change curves.
  • Learn strategies to help ourselves and our teams become more change resilient.
  • Apply those strategies to a current change initiative.
  • Share expertise on things that have worked and things that have not.
 		 Ask the average person nowadays how they are doing and they will usually say “I’m just so busy!” Our work environments are often fast-paced and hectic, we are continually being asked to do more with less. Our home environments can, at times, be overwhelming as well with running children to numerous practices and events, to taking care of the yard or completing house related projects. When was the last time you really felt at peace or felt centered and full of joy? How are you at controlling stress in your life? Would you like to laugh more, eat healthier and sleep better? Would you like to have a better relationship with your partner, spouse, children or your friends? This presentation will explore a number of practical strategies you can use to regain a healthy balance in your life! 

Following this presentation, participants will be able to:
  • Identify ways to incorporate more laughter and humor into their daily routine.
  • Identify ways to recognize and cope with stress to regain a healthy balance in life.
  • Identify ways to improve health related habits such as eating healthier, sleeping better and incorporating more physical activity into their daily routines.
