Key Features

A one hour video-based workshop.

The Leading Yourself Through Change Leader Kit includes all you need to deliver the workshop. Each participant takes away the book, When "It" Happens! at Work: 5 Action Steps for Leading Yourself Through Change to share with family and friends.

This brand new program on change replaces the best-selling "It Happens!".

Left to their own devices, many employees struggle to accept and adapt to change. That struggle takes its toll--on individuals, their families, coworkers, and the business. This video-based workshop equips individuals with a proven personal change process they can use--and share with others--to become Change-Resilient, able to adapt rapidly to any change with courage and confidence.

The Video

The Change Scenario (23 minutes)

A company merger presents Anna with a host of unwelcome changes, including a new job assignment, a tough new boss, and a longer commute to the office.  Anna reacts with sarcasm at work and anger at home.  Her handling of this change takes its toll.  At work her new colleagues are wary and keep their distance from her.  At home, her family life is disrupted.  Fortunately, in her heart of hearts, Anna knows there's a better way to handle change.  Led by her better self, viewers see Anna take five simple but powerful Action Steps to become Change-Resilient.

The 5 Action Steps:

Anna and workshop participants learn how to:

• Overcome the negative feelings that come with change
• Reframe unproductive thoughts and beliefs
• Unfreeze and try new behaviors
• Arrange encouraging consequences to keep themselves motivated
• Discover the impact they have on others as they deal with the change
