In this course, we will explain individual behavior and actions in response to change. We will start with a brief overview of group dynamics and leadership at the core of Lewin’s social science and model of planned change. This leads to a conversation about a perspective that it is easier to change ideology or cultural habits by dealing with groups rather than with individuals.

Then we will explore how harnessing a sense of belongness can help remove fear and resistance to change. This course will serve to examine an inclusive approach to change that enables individuals to become the change the organization is looking for.

Learning Objectives
  • Discover the theory of group dynamics and leadership at the core of Lewin’s social science and model of planned change.
  • Identify an approach that seeks to change ideology or cultural habits by dealing with groups rather than with individuals.

Interesting concepts to learn about organizational behavior. The instructor is very knowledgeable but her presentation discussion is too fast for many of these new concepts to sink in! I highly encourage a slower pace!
