The seminar will focus on the tools and methods for managing change in public administration. Fundamental concepts of change management will be introduced in order to identify the key enablers of change processes. High-level practitioners and experts will share their experiences on the different aspects of change implementation, including strategy setting, building confidence and addressing resistance. Moreover, participants will gain insight on the skills and human resources dimension of transformation paths. Roundtables and plenary sessions will give participants the opportunity to compare situations, success factors and obstacles in the process of change. Learning from mistakes as well as dealing with emotional reactions in an evolving environment will form part of the discussions on the long-term impacts of change.
