Leading the Unknown: A Course on Change Mnagement - Session 1

FREE COVID-19 Workshop from Spokes

Ambiguity and uncertainty have always been a factor in nonprofit work. But now, more than ever, nonprofit leaders must be prepared to lead their nonprofit through the "Unknown" in a time of social and economic change. Many questions face the organization leader: What type of community will we all return too? Who will come back to work and how will the workplace look? What shifts does our nonprofit need to make to remain relevant during this time?

In the current environment brought about by the COVID-19 situation and months of sheltering-in-place, solid leaders need to confidently lead themselves, their staff, and their nonprofit through change. Having the ability to manage yourself and influence others in a positive and fearless way is essential to your success and the future sustainability of your nonprofit.

In session 1 of this two-part course, you will cultivate:

• *A learning mindset
• *Comfort with risk and uncertainty
• *The confidence to lead change and influence others in a positive and fearless manner.

Takeaways include:

• *A variety of problem solving techniques
• *Coaching interventions to address resistance to change
• *A Tolerance For Ambiguity Self Assessment

You will be assigned a brief task to consider and complete in preparation for Session 2.
