Event Description
Change is never easy, but understanding the transition process that leads to adopting a change is a critical skill for library leaders. This session will help you understand the stages of a transition process, where people get stuck (and how to help them if they do!), and how to develop strong team dynamics that support the change. Drawing on the transition theory work of Bruce Feiler, William Bridges, and Susan Bridges, participants will deeply consider the elements of each stage of a transition and how to support themselves, their team, and their colleagues each step of the way, as well as how to head off tension and conflict along the way. While change may never be easy, understanding the transition process that leads to change helps library leaders become more intentional and effective.
