Stakeholder Engagement: How to Reduce Resistance

In this webinar, Dr. Linda Ackerman Anderson discusses key, early stakeholder engagement opportunities and reveals how change leaders can maximize these opportunities to save time, save money and increase commitment and meaningful participation.

Instructor: Dr. Linda Ackerman Anderson

Key Takeaways:

Resistance is created in large part because the stakeholders are not being engaged up front and early in the change process.

Experience shows us that early, targeted employee engagement, communication, and inputting to the future state solution is what instills stakeholder commitment to pursue and succeed at change.

Effective engagement has the potential to unleash vast amounts of people’s potential and energy–greater motivation, more sustained effort, and inspired levels of creativity for a better future.

Asking stakeholders – who will be the ones to adopt and live with the new reality – what their best thinking is on the issues, design requirements, solution scenarios and impacts prior to implementation are keys to mobilizing the fastest, most successful experience of change.
