You have the project plan. You have the communications. You have the training. And yet, something still isn't clicking.
People are confused. Leaders aren't aligned. Adoption is uneven. Resistance is showing up. Or maybe everyone is nodding along, but you're not convinced they're actually on board.
So, where is the change really breaking down?
In this Idea Exchange built for change leaders and practitioners, members will join Julie Ann Whitten, previous ACMP Midwest Conference speaker and author of The People Stack: Why Change Fails (and What Actually Fixes It), for an interactive Change Exchange focused on diagnosing the human side of adoption.
In this highly participatory roundtable, we'll use the five layers of The People Stack: Clarity, Alignment, Capability, Belief and Sustainment, with Trust as the foundation that supports them all, to look beneath the symptoms of resistance and explore what people may actually need to move forward.
This is not a webinar. It's an interactive, two-way discussion. Expect rich discussions, insights from peers, and opportunities to co-create ideas you can take back to your work and your teams.
Bring a real change initiative, stakeholder challenge or adoption problem you're wrestling with. We'll use the framework to unpack real scenarios, compare experiences and explore questions such as: Where is your People Stack weakest? What looks like resistance but may actually be something else? And what can you do differently when more communication or training isn't the answer?
Come ready to participate, share and learn from fellow change practitioners. You'll leave with a practical lens for identifying where adoption is getting stuck and where to focus your attention next.
