We're pleased to invite you to our next North East Yorkshire and Humber Skills Academy learning event !

In the last 12 months we have been faced with fundamental changes.

The session will provide practical guidance for procurement professionals and anyone involved in a procurement process. It will focus on how leaders and managers can engage people in co-creating and co-producing change so that they are committed to it and ensure that the change is sustainable. The session will cover:

• Engaging people with change

• Factors that drive engagement with organizational change

• Identifying key stakeholders and their impact and influence

• Appreciating why people react in certain ways to change

• Assessing readiness for change

The session will be delivered by Professor Julie Hodges from Durham University Business School. Julie is a leading expert on change in organizations, particularly the role and impact of people during transformations. She joined the Business School in 2006. Before entering the academic world Julie worked as a business consultant for over 20 years in various profit and non-profit organizations. Julie has published in a number of international journals on change in organizations and is the author of several books on the subject.

We look forward to having you join us and we'll send you joining instructions the day before the event.
