Today’s most successful behavioral health organizations have leaders who are skilled in guiding not only rapid change, but transformational change. To truly lead and sustain a successful transformation, you need intensive, case study-based training in identifying critical staff and board roles for change management, communication strategies and assessment strategies to understand strengths and risk areas.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand how to assess your organization’s readiness for change, including strengths and areas of risk.

  • Identify the important role in change management of executive team, board, mid-level managers/supervisors and front-line staff and understand effective strategies for engaging staff and board members at all levels.

  • Identify where systems build dependence instead of independence for the consumer.

  • Recognize the core elements of rapid-cycle change and continuous quality improvement and prepare to implement these change models within your organization.

  • Identify best-in-class decision-making and communication planning for sustaining transformational change.

  • Develop your personal and organizational transformational change strategy and executive goals.
