Changing How You Communicate About...Change

It's happening all around us...it is change. And while change is ever constant there are some major misconceptions about how it impacts nearly everyone. Here Liz Cooney the Director of Training for Tero International takes a deep dive into the psychology of change, what it means to employees who may be impacted, how leaders might better communicate about changes in the workplace and why there is such a sense of loss when change does happen but we tend to give that loss only a fleeting glance. Powerful advice from the experts in training successful individuals.
