The Secondary Drivers of Change: Understanding The Ripple Effect on Our Organizations and What is Happening Today?

Webinar

Either change or become irrelevant. In today's fast-paced and ever-changing business environment, organizations are faced with numerous challenges that require them to adapt quickly. Every decision an organization makes can have a ripple effect on various aspects of the company. Therefore, one of the challenges is dealing with secondary changes that occur after an initial change has been made. These secondary changes can affect various aspects of the organization, including its external environment, people, the organizational structure, the internal culture, and systems. In this presentation, we will explore how changes in one area of an organization can affect the secondary drivers of change.

These changes can impact on the organizational structure, leading to the creation of new departments or the reorganization of existing ones. They can also affect the internal environment, leading to changes in […]
