1/2 Day Workshop on the Leadership of Change - Manchester, UK - 9th Nov 2021

Nov



Last week I led a half day workshop for a group of Vistage UK Chief Executives in Manchester, which included a session on change management gamification. The workshop sessions covered:

  1. Change Management Introduction
  2. 10 Change Management Lessons Learned
  3. Change Management Gamification - Leadership Rounds 1 & 2
  4. Change Leadership Alignment and Responsibilities

“Change leadership requires a different set of skills than leading normal day-to-day operations, this capability must be developed before leading organisational change”

More about Session 3: Change Management Gamification - Leadership Rounds 1 & 2

What is Change Management Gamification?

Change management gamification is an interactive and dynamic way for employees to learn change management skills and knowledge using game characteristics. It is a growing trend which helps employees to learn and practice change management skills and knowledge in a safe training workshop environment with peers before they start their organisation’s change implementation journey. It is a way of engaging employees and preparing them to solve potential organisational change management implementation challenges by applying change concepts using a business case study simulation with a wide selection of stakeholders.

Why Use Gamification to Learn Change Management?

Using change management gamification to learn change management is much more effective than learning from static PowerPoint slides. Change management knowledge is information acquired through sensory input, such as reading, watching, listening, etc. Change management skills refers to the ability to apply change management knowledge during change implementation. However, it is best to work in a team, discuss change concepts and then practice the application of any newfound skills and knowledge to see how the stakeholders react before applying them in the workplace. Change management gamification provides employees with the opportunity to test their new skills and knowledge through our case study, gaining instant feedback on your chosen change tactics by how the stakeholders react!
