Course Overview

With automation and digitalization driving changes in an exponential manner and an environment heightened by the pandemic, tremendous changes have and are taking place in the way we live, work and conduct business, learn and collaborate with others. Organizations and individuals who are able to adapt to the “new normal”, transform and pivot themselves into new business models will survive and even thrive. Those who fail to do so will eventually face loss of employment and for organizations, face discontinuity and extinction.

Adapt for Success at the Workplace, without doubt, is an essential skill for our workforce and their organizations. However, for many people, change is uncomfortable. The hardest part of change, according to psychologists, is not embracing the new innovation; it is giving up the old. Studies have found that organizational changes such as restructuring or new leadership can lead to employees being overly stressed and have less trust in their employers. The inability to adapt well to the changes around give rise to increased anxiety, poor productivity and disrupted performances. Even more severe stress can result from losing a job or having to change jobs, negatively impacting individuals’ state of health.
