Open a lecture, take the tool, use it on the change you lead now.
Why most changes quietly die
A new system is announced in one email among two hundred. Managers nod and keep working the old way. Six months later nobody remembers what was supposed to change. The idea is rarely the problem. People were not asked, the first results came too late, nobody owned the plan, and the old habit was simply stronger than the new rule.
What changes after this course
You start with a reason people can feel and a group that will carry the change. You know who is affected and what each of them needs to hear. You plan the change like a project, with a scope, a schedule and risks. You get visible results early and show them. You expect resistance and have a response for each kind. And you fix the new way of working in processes and culture so that it stays.

Who is teaching
I am Mike, the #1 HR instructor on Udemy, with 1,800,000+ course enrollments from 170,000 students, and the author of about 200 books on Amazon. I built the people system at Preply as it became a unicorn and worked at Wargaming, iDeals and Alfa-Bank across 20 years in HR. I hold PHRi, SHRM-CP and HCI sHRBP certifications and represent HRCI in Eastern Europe.
I have seen both ends. At a bank where I worked, a new core system was being introduced, planned for several years. In four and a half years there I did not see a single visible result. Without quick results a change project loses its air. At iDeals we did the opposite when we introduced two HR tools. We did not run a usual boring presentation. A teaser went out the day before, there were funny posters, and after the demo I invited everyone to the kitchen to celebrate: cupcakes, each with a sweet logo of the system on top. People took it well, and the resistance was much lower.
