CHANGE MANAGEMENT AND LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT

A COLLABORATIVE, FLEXIBLE AND TARGET ORIENTED APPROACH TO IMPLEMENT SUCCESSFUL CHANGE

Lisbeth Hedberg offers clients a selection of tailor-made change management programs including team coaching and ‘train the trainer’ programs. We also act as a facilitator – playing the role of intermediary in rolling out and implementing strategic internal changes, and resolving potential conflicts which arise during the process.

Using a broad range of tools, concepts and methods, we create innovative and engaging ways for achieving successful and sustainable changes in individuals, teams and organizations, over and over again.

Lisbeth Hedberg enables clients to achieve these changes by ensuring they have the right skills and mind-set in place. We do this by bringing people together for constructive interaction. This creates an environment and culture with a shared understanding from which common goals are developed and agreed upon.

This means our clients can develop a culture that understands the necessity for – and opportunities that arise from – change.
