Overview
When impacted by change, we adopt one of Six Change Personas™ — depending on how we truly feel about the change: Campaigner; Helper; Skeptic; Wind Watcher; Foot Dragger; Torpedo.
As our feelings evolve, we naturally switch personas. Each one has a good side… and a dark side.
In this highly dynamic and interactive keynote, Edmond introduces the Six Change Personas. He shares research data to highlight how often we adopt each of them.
Then, Edmond guides the audience through an exploration of each persona. Participants leverage the insights gained through this collective reflection to strengthen their resilience during times of change.
Not only do they become better at self-management when things are in flux, but they also develop deeper empathy towards others. This, along with the common framework and vocabulary learned through the keynote, brings the all-critical partnership-for-change™ to the next level.
Bottom line: a team better equipped to work together through change!
Edmond delivers this keynote with the passion, humour and engaging style that are his trademarks.

- Discover the Six Change Personas™ we adopt based on how we feel about the change.
