"...inspiring!...meaningful!...delivered with a lot of flair and great humor!"

Illness strikes people when they are exposed to change," said the ancient philosopher. "Change is inevitable, except from vending machines," said Mack Dryden. In today’s frantically fluid workplace, no one knows the potential for disastrous transitions better than the managers who are expected to provide guidance and comfort to their queasy charges until the boat stops rocking and the choppy crossing is complete.

Mack’s dynamic presentation, "Managing Transition with a Chuckle" provides managers with the powerful and practical tools they need to lead their people through uncertain times—and to keep a sense of humor while they do it. "If they’re laughing, they’re listening," is Mack’s motto, and he’s a master at engaging and entertaining even as he gives invaluable lessons in the essential art of Transition Management. So his audiences are upbeat and inspired as they learn how to:

• Identify problem areas early and head them off
• Convert stubborn naysayers to enthusiastic believers
• Help employees manage their emotional reactions to change
• Maintain an acceptable level of productivity in the midst of the weirdness
• Give employees confidence in times of confusion and uncertainty
• Give employees a stake in a positive outcome
• Get employees’ minds, hearts and guts behind a change
• Harness the creative power that is a natural by-product of change
• Nourish, support and reinforce New Beginnings so they’ll ‘take’
