I have been teaching a module on ‘Managing Change’ on a BA Counselling Coaching and Mentoring degree. I wish more people knew these things, particularly in workplaces, so here’s my series of blog posts based some of the things I cover on the module, in order.
The posts are short, and I introduce a number of ideas, models and tools that I hope you find useful. This page will be added to, as new posts are published.
