Activating Our Power to Adapt to Change

For Faculty and Staff

Change, especially when it is imposed on us, can be disorienting and lead to confusion, anxiety, and possibly even a crisis of confidence. The change, uncertainty, and ambiguity that has been brought upon all of us by the pandemic is unprecedented. Now more than ever, we must learn to adapt. To get clear on what is within our influence, when so much is out of our control. To connect and reach out to others, to ask for help, and to provide support, in a time of physical distancing that has impacted our social connections. In this interactive session, you will learn the four stages of adaptation to change and how you can use the power of your capacity to learn to move through your stages more intentionally.

What Participants Will Learn:

• Acknowledge the normalness of the disorientation we feel when change is imposed on us
• Describe the model of the four stages of adaptation to change
• Recognize which stage you are currently in
• Understand how to use the power of learning to adapt to change
• Employ helpful strategies to move intentionally and successfully into the next stage of adaptation
• Apply the model to identify and move through the stages of adaptation when faced with future changes
• Recognize where colleagues may be in the stages of adaptation to change and be able to support them
