Description:

Change can either strengthen or strain a safety culture, depending on how it’s led. This session explores the neuroscience of change and equips leaders with tools to guide their teams through uncertainty with clarity and confidence. Participants will learn an 8-part change framework to reduce resistance, maintain trust, and keep people aligned through transitions. Whether it’s a new safety process, leadership shift, or organizational restructure, you’ll discover how to set the stage for success, engage hearts and minds, and ensure change supports, not disrupts, your safety mission.

Learning Objectives:

1. Explain how the brain responds to change and identify factors that contribute to resistance within teams.
2. Apply an 8-step change framework to design a structured approach for leading organizational transitions.
3. Evaluate strategies for maintaining trust and alignment during change and justify leadership actions that support long-term safety culture and performance.
