Session 1: Change Management 101
We often find ourselves resisting change, perhaps due to the perceived risk or fear we associate with it. However, learning to embrace change and increase your sphere of tolerance for the unexpected is important for professional growth, innovation, and advancement. In this first session, you’ll learn about the change management model. Then we’ll build from there and explore mindsets, tools, and strategies for managing the change within your role, department, and firm. You must register to access.
Session 2: Decision Making Frameworks
We often view decision-making on a spectrum of two extremes. On one end, there are individuals who operate from gut feelings; on the other end are people who need to research and consider all the pertinent facts. We know that some decisions are more important than others, but how do we vet out the best option given the information and time we have? In this session, we’ll explore models for strategic decision-making. You’ll learn how time influences decision-making (hint: more is not always better). Finally, we’ll look at specific areas where marketing professionals can leverage these skills throughout their organization. You must register to access.
Session 3: Execution
In this third and final session, we’ll discuss execution and implementation. Specifically we’ll look at “speed to market” concepts and, using case studies, we’ll work to understand the pros and cons of going fast, faster, and fastest. We’ll also explore Skrum and its simplified application to help improve the quality and impact of marketing processes, procedures, and projects. You must register to access.
