Be A Successful Change Leader With The Leading Change Course

How often have you heard quotes like, “Be the change you wish to see,” or “Change is the only constant?” These aren’t just sayings but are pearls of wisdom that also serve as beacons of truth. While most of us initially feel reluctant towards any new changes around us, we cannot survive if we don’t adapt. After all, change is not a choice; it’s the right way of moving forward in business. If a business doesn’t incorporate change, they’re unlikely to succeed or last in the market.

Change is in every new project, every new customer, and every improvement in products or services. Change can be major, like a merger or acquisition. Regardless of the intensity, change is survival and directly impacts productivity, turnover, employee engagement, and organizational effectiveness.

Leading change is one of the strongest qualities of any good leader. Change leadership can make an organization excel and be better prepared for any circumstances rather than being caught off-guard and feeling helpless.

What is Change Leadership?

Change leadership is the art of influencing and inspiring your team with a clear vision in mind that can equip them with solutions to combat any change.

Qualities of a good change leader:

  • Ability to influence others

A good change leader has the power to convince people into believing in and working towards his/her vision and mission.

  • Anticipate change and respond with agility

A leader needs to be able to gauge market trends and foresee upcoming changes or disruptions in technology and come up with timely and creative solutions.

  • Strong communication and collaboration skills

A good leader should be able to talk about how to adapt to change and be able to bring in people and execute the plan. He should motivate his team members to participate in decision-making and encourage them to give their ideas while coming up with strategies for change.

  • Build trust with the team

Who would follow someone they don’t have faith in, right? A change leader needs to connect with his team and demonstrate empathy by putting people first. He/she should listen to them to understand their stance and where they’re coming from.

  • Stay strong during disruption

Change is inevitable and often comes with imaginable magnitude. A change leader must build and sustain momentum during such times. He/she must stand strong and support his team amidst any big organizational changes.

  • Empower the team

Motivation, encouragement, and empowerment work wonders. Productivity doubles if you’re passionate about what you do and are appreciated. It is salient for a team lead to constantly boost the morale of their team members for better results.

  • Focus on the big picture

Any change leader needs to look at the entirety of a plan or situation. They must identify and overcome barriers to change to achieve greater organizational success.

  • Willing to take risks

The world is ever-changing and evolving at an exponential speed. Leaders who are willing to take risks are the ones who survive in the long run. Successful change leaders are self-aware to take the best risks for long-term success.

If you’re someone who wants to lead your team towards brilliance and achieve success, then the Leading Change course should be your pitstop. Read on to know more about the course.

What is the Leading Change course all about?

Generational IQ For The Workplace

What is Generational IQ?

This concept refers to the ability to work cohesively across a generational workplace. Millennials have truly altered the job landscape in recent times, and generational diversity continues to get the attention it deserves. Therefore, companies look forward to the possibilities that Generation Z will bring & acknowledge that intergenerational differences can create lower engagement among employees, and a rise in turnover among staff. 

The following measures need to be implemented to help your organization develop a generational quotient so that all workers can flourish in an inclusive environment that embraces age diversity:

Understanding generational differences

Developing Generation IQ for an organization requires it to recognize that generational differences can impact how employees interact, how they work together, how they deal with feedback, and how they motivate each other concerning leadership. Conflicts are often cited as being the consequence of personality differences.

Communicating mindfully and motivating effectively

There are many motivators within each generation. The communication preferences of each generation are different and the frequency with which feedback is sought and their attitude toward teamwork. Organizations and managers need to know and respect each generation to use the right communication methods and motivators.

Empathize and rationalize

Workers may be able to empathize with and rationalize their workplace behaviors better if they believe that they are different in certain aspects from people of other generations. The organization must model inclusive behavior to build empathy and respect towards those of another generation by cultivating in its employees a culture of inclusion.

Generational IQ Course:

To ensure all these measures are taking place in your organization P2L has brought you the course you need!

Skills taught in this course

Accountability in the workplace

How Can Accountability Help You & Your Organization Flourish?

All employees should be held accountable for their actions, behaviors, performance, and decisions in the workplace. Accountability can also be linked to greater commitment to work and employee morale, which leads to better performance. However, if it is lacking in many workplaces.

An accountability culture in the workplace

Accountability is about ownership and taking responsibility for your work and results. One should follow through and get it done when one makes a commitment. It’s about your commitment to the team and realizing your impact on them. 

Integrity develops when a team consistently demonstrates ownership and accountability. You learn to trust that someone will do the right thing and do what they say they’ll do. Trust is the cornerstone of high-performing teams.

How does an organization function without it?

Failure to hold people accountable leads to a breakdown in the team. One shortfall can grow to be a catastrophe for the entire organization. Failure to hold people accountable for their actions results in the team being delayed. 

Having a staff member who doesn’t meet their commitments and isn’t held accountable leads to a feeling of disillusionment and an overall lack of engagement and motivation for the other team members.


Your culture and team core values must embrace accountability.

Our inability to hold others responsible is ultimately due to our discomfort doing so and the fact that we forget to do it.

But, P2L has got you covered with an insightful half-day course that teaches you how to resolve these issues.


What does the course consist of?
