Workshop for leaders and managers

Leading Through Change

Helping leaders support their team through the human side of change

Because how people experience change matters as much as the change itself.

It’s easy to focus on the logistics of change, the plans, timelines and project management, while overlooking the human response. Two people can experience the same change in completely different ways. This workshop helps leaders understand the neuroscience behind resistance, build compassion and trust through uncertainty, and walk away with a practical toolkit to lead their teams through change with confidence.

Questions we get asked

Before you book

Can the workshop be delivered online or in person?
Both. We deliver in person anywhere in Australia, or virtually if your people are spread across sites or you would rather not bring everyone into one room. The content and the activities work either way, and we will talk through which format suits your group when we chat.
Who will facilitate our session?
We have around 20 Be Well Certified facilitators around the country. Being Be Well Certified means we have taken them through the science behind our programs and they deliver our materials. Rather than sending whoever happens to be free, we match a facilitator to your organisation based on the energy of the group and what your people need. You can meet the team here.
How long is the session, and how many people can attend?
Sessions run for one or two hours, and we usually suggest up to 30 people so there is still room for people to talk. If you have a bigger audience in mind, we also do presentations that land better for larger groups.
What does it cost?
Get in touch and tell us what you have in mind. Price varies depending on the format, the duration and the type of session, so once we understand your requirements we will send you a proposal with costing.
How far in advance do we need to book?
We have turned sessions around in a week and we have planned them months out, so there is flexibility. Around four weeks tends to work best. It gives us time to get to know your organisation and match the right facilitator, and it gives you time to get your team or leaders ready for it.
Why do people resist change at work?
Unwanted or unclear change can trigger a threat response that makes people resistant, defensive and narrow minded. Two people can experience the same change in completely different ways, which is why how a leader shows up during change has a real effect on how their team copes with it.
Why does trust matter so much during change?
Change is no longer occasional, it’s constant. In one widely cited survey, people in high-trust environments reported 50% higher productivity, 76% more engagement and 40% less burnout than those in low-trust environments.
Is this for leaders or for the whole team?
This one is built for leaders, because how they show up shapes how everyone else experiences the change. For a session that helps the wider team with their own reactions to change, we run Navigating Change at Work. Many organisations run both.
