Do you dread it when you hear your boss or co-workers talking about a brilliant new idea for the business? Is your automatic reaction to a discussion about a new project "but we've barely made it through the last change! What's wrong with the current process/system/structure?"
If you're like most people, you probably answered "yes", at least to some degree. Why do you think that is? After all, new ideas and innovations can bring about significant improvements in our work and lives. It's not that you don't like innovation, it's just that the implementation of something new means that change is required. Change, at face value, represents an upset in the status quo – a disruption of your comfort zone.
Some people need constant change to keep them interested and happy, they seem to enjoy the constant disruption to their lives. For the majority of people though, the language used when talking about change is often "coping with" or "surviving".
We know that change is inevitable and there’s really no way around it. But people still fret over it, worrying about what’s lurking around the corner and wondering when the proverbial “other shoe” is going to drop.
And yet, this is no way to go through life!
In fact, recent research suggests that stress alone is behind 60% of all human illness and disease, with 3 out 4 doctor visits being due to stress-related ailments. Not only does stress cause you to lose sleep at night (which can drastically impact your productivity and mental awareness), but it can also shrink your brain as it reduces grey matter in regions tied to your emotional and physiological functions!
Simply put—change, and the stress that it very often brings, is taking a toll on people every day.
So what if I told you that there’s a way to ease the resistance, stress, uncertainty, worry and feelings of dread that come with change…? What if I told you there was a different way to manage change in your life? A way that you could remove the stress from the constant change of our busy lives, and learn to thrive in the face of it?
Search Amazon books for ‘coping with change’ and you’ll get 5,685 results, and that doesn’t take into account all of the online courses and blogs that deal with change. My name is Ros Cardinal and I am the founder of Shaping Change. I am an accredited Change Manager and an Organisational Behaviours expert, and have spent the last 20 years plus working with organisations and leaders to help them cope with changes – changes in their businesses, and changes in their lives.
I have written articles on the topics of change and leadership that have appeared in online publications like Huffington Post, Leaders in Heels, eMile: People Development Magazine. I have authored a best selling and award nominated book "The Resilient Employee: The essential guide to coping with change and thriving in today's workplace".

"Thank you so much for conducting the “Transitions and Transformations” workshop on the Launceston campus last Thursday. I found the workshop most helpful and enjoyable and appreciated you covering the various psychological aspects. So we are well equipped now to deal with further changes!"
"Change is a very discussed topic at the moment, and for the most part it feels complicated. Ros made it really easy for anyone to understand. Her material has a logical sequence that makes you feel comfortable about approaching and embracing change. I would recommend it to anyone frighten about change, it's a true roadmap for transformation. I've been in the Transitional phase from some time now and her material gave me the wings to take action. As we speak I am 'Starting Anew', thanks to shapingchange.com.au."
"The Program that Ros has created is very effective and I can see the program helping a lot of people who are going through change at work. I would highly recommend her program to others."

Thriving in Change is designed for all types of change. Transitions and Transformations is designed for people experiencing organisational change, but the majority of the content is applicable to any change experience. You can certainly apply the learnings from the program to life changes as well as changes at work.
No. I have run Transitions and Transformations many times as a live program. One of the things participants often tell me is while they got an enormous benefit from the program, they would like to have done it BEFORE they experienced change as they would have been better equipped to cope. Regardless of timing – if you are in change, getting ready for change, or just want more tools to support you in life, these programs will help you.
