310 Supporting teams and individuals through change
Change is inevitable if an organisation is to maintain competitiveness and currency of practice. Managers are constantly asked to implement change to respond to commercial pressures, legal organisational requirements, efficiencies or improvements. Success often depends on the support given by managers to staff. The aim of this unit is to enable managers to lead people positively through change. This is achieved by implementing plans that identify ways to make change successful and gaining the support and trust of individuals and teams.

Working efficiently is essential if a business is to remain competitive. A well-structured workload is key to individual and team success.
