Managing yourself through change

Training that prepares participants to function effectively in conditions of continuous organizational change. The program is based on the Kübler-Ross change curve model and focuses on building individual resilience, developing a proactive attitude toward change, and cultivating a growth mindset. Participants will learn practical tools for coping with uncertainty, fear, and resistance that accompany transformation processes.

Organizational change is an experience that affects every employee — regardless of position. The way we deal with uncertainty, resistance, and the emotions that accompany transformation determines our effectiveness and professional well-being.

Managing yourself through change is a one-day EITT training program, delivered on-site or online — depending on participants’ preferences. The program is designed for professionals at any experience level — sessions combine theory with intensive workshop exercises.

Why choose this training?

At EITT, we have trained over 2,500 groups, maintaining an average rating of 4.8/5. Our training on self-management through change is based on proven psychological models — the Kübler-Ross change curve, Carol Dweck’s growth mindset model — and translates them into practical tools that can be implemented from day one after the training.

Topics covered include:

The Kübler-Ross change curve — understanding stages of emotional response
Emotion regulation techniques and building tolerance of uncertainty
Pillars of resilience and methods for strengthening psychological strength
Growth mindset — transforming difficulties into development opportunities
An individual 90-day adaptation plan

What sets our approach apart?

The program focuses on the individual’s perspective — not managing change within the organization, but managing yourself during the change process. Participants work on their own reaction patterns, build awareness of their resources, and design a personal adaptive strategy. This is training that provides real tools for daily functioning in conditions of uncertainty.
