Managing change… Is this what you do when faced with change…?

Managing Change… Or maybe this is your style………..

Managing Change… Or maybe this ………

Managing Change… Hopefully not this ……….

Managing Change… Perhaps this is more your style…

Managing Change… But one thing is certain….

Managing change… Change will happen!

Managing change… And those who expect moments of change to be comfortable and free of conflict have not learned their history. Joan Wallach Scott

Change happens… whether we are ready or not… Let’s examine how we respond to change…. One Step at a time.

Only One Step… in noble silence In any direction… Big or small… Forward or backward… Slowly and deliberately… Observing your moment-to-moment reality… Becoming aware of your patterns of movement… Feeling your responses to changes…

Only One Step… in noble silence Take the First Step How does it feel to take a step into an unknown experience? Look around and see who you are next to. See where others are in relation to you.

Only One Step… in noble silence Take a Second Step Each step is a choice… Each choice has consequences… What has changed around you as a result of the second step…

Only One Step… in noble silence Take a Third Step Are you beginning to recognize certain patterns about your movements? What is characteristic of your choices in some way? Observe others in relation to you… is this what you expected? What is working or not working for you right now?

Only One Step… in noble silence Take Another Step Pause and look around you again. With each step you took… – You made a choice… – Took an action… – Influenced an outcome… – Contributed to consequences… Consider… – What can you really manage about change?

Managing Change: Reflecting and Evaluating Share any personal Insights. What have you learned from the experience? What could you do differently to manage your next change with calm, finesse and skill?

Managing Change: Reflecting and Evaluating Choose one action you could take. Share it with your neighbour

A few things to remember about change… It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most adaptable and responsive to change. Author Unknown

A few things to remember about change… If nothing ever changed… there'd be no butterflies… Author Unknown
