As we know, change is hard at the best of times, and fast, radical change is even harder, something COVID-19 has amply demonstrated. But when staff trust leadership, project managers, and their plans, an organization can be flexible, creative, caring, and nimble, even in a crisis. Trust is not a choice, and it’s not something any leader can demand. Trust must be created and built upon, and change management is the process by which building trust becomes part of any process. In this session, we’ll talk about change management approaches you can apply today that will help to build strong trust in your organization, with a particular focus on how to face resistance to change with curiosity and respect. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eIn this session, participants will learn:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eHow to foster strong trust in your organization; \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eHow to face resistance to change; \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eBest practices for change management\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Presenter:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"entry-content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eRochelle Mazar has spent the majority of her career in change management roles: first in instructional technology and faculty development at the University of Toronto Mississauga, and then library staff development, particularly related emerging technology skills and building staff confidence to experiment with new technologies.

As we know, change is hard at the best of times, and fast, radical change is even harder, something COVID-19 has amply demonstrated. But when staff trust leadership, project managers, and their plans, an organization can be flexible, creative, caring, and nimble, even in a crisis. Trust is not a choice, and it’s not something any leader can demand. Trust must be created and built upon, and change management is the process by which building trust becomes part of any process. In this session, we’ll talk about change management approaches you can apply today that will help to build strong trust in your organization, with a particular focus on how to face resistance to change with curiosity and respect. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eIn this session, participants will learn:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eHow to foster strong trust in your organization; \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eHow to face resistance to change; \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eBest practices for change management\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Presenter:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"entry-content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eRochelle Mazar has spent the majority of her career in change management roles: first in instructional technology and faculty development at the University of Toronto Mississauga, and then library staff development, particularly related emerging technology skills and building staff confidence to experiment with new technologies.
