Too often, organizations treat change management as a communication plan that comes after decisions are made. The result is predictable: resistance, confusion, culture strain, and missed outcomes. Sustainable change does not happen by accident. It happens when leaders intentionally design for people, not just process. Change by Design: Putting Change Management at the Decision Table is a highly interactive workshop that reframes change management as a strategic leadership responsibility rather than a late-stage task. Participants will explore why even well-intentioned initiatives fail to gain traction and how early integration of change thinking dramatically improves adoption, engagement, and results. At the center of this session is a hands-on, real-time walkthrough of Kotter's Change Model. Participants will apply each step to a real organizational or team change scenario, moving beyond theory into practical application. This working session allows leaders to experience what effective change design actually looks like while building a repeatable process they can use in their own organizations. By the end of the workshop, participants will not only understand how to lead change more effectively, they will leave with a draft roadmap they can immediately refine and implement.
